Hit: 5 Stars
As soon as I heard that Hans Zimmer was going to be composing this score, I knew it would be "monstrous" with vibrant strings set against the background of a giant brass section. Klaus Badelt did a wonderful job with the first Pirates soundtrack, and, of course the two soundtracks are going to sound similar because Badelt is part of Zimmer's Media Venture entourage. Zimmer merely took what Badelt had already installed into the Pirates montage and expanded upon it.
1. Jack Sparrow--This song starts out with stringed basses and cellos. It evolves into a more defined string section and adds the brass instruments to reintroduce Jack's theme from the first Pirates movie. The theme does not stay completely the same as the first, though, and creates a new theme for a renewed Jack Sparrow.
2. The Kraken--This theme is, by far, my favorite throughout this soundtrack! The track starts off with bass and cello, again, and builds its way to violins, a brass section, drums, and some distant voice sounds. The track slows down a bit and plays a part of Davy Jones' organ piece, tying the Kraken to Davy Jones. There's another turn in the track where the rhythm changes a bit and gives one the feel of the Kraken approaching. The heavy drums in the background also help to fuel this sense of urgency. There's also a little bit of electric guitar mixed in for a sound that's gnashing and hardcore. The entire piece builds back up to Davy Jones' theme and ends with the organ and a heartbeat.
3. Davy Jones--The track starts off with a musicbox sound of Davy Jones' main theme. The strings come back in, but only very subtly at first. They slowly start to build through the track and lead to the organ piece. The track continues to build upon the organ by adding more drums, cymbals, brass, and strings. Drums continue on, as a repitition of the heartbeat in The Kraken, and the track ends with the musicbox of the theme.
4. I've Got My Eye On You--This track has a similar pattern to Davy Jones, in the beginning, then, about 3/4 of the way through, turns into the Pirates theme established in the first Pirates movie. The theme from Jack Sparrow can be heard finishing out the track.
5. Dinner Is Served--Heavy drums, violins, brass, and a tribal voice start out this track with a "boom!". The track leads up to the point in which Will and the rest of the Black Pearl Crew are swinging in the ball cages. This theme is very waltzy and whimsical and ends the track.
6. Tia Dalma--Another Pirates 1 theme is repeated in this track. That theme evolves into a combination of itself and the already established Davy Jones theme. It evolves, yet again, into a theme that was familiarized with Barbossa in Pirates 1. There's a reason for that and it's a good foreshadowing mechanism on Zimmer's part. The theme then becomes its own with a tribal voice in the background along with the heartbeat from previous tracks.
7. Two Hornpipes (Tortuga)--This track is very light and full of whimsy. One can simply imagine the people around these musicians dancing jigs with large smiles on their faces.
8. A Family Affair--The violins make up the melody of this track, followed by a vibrant brass section. The Davy Jones theme is touched on here and moderated a bit to fit the scene of the movie. One can, once again, here the musicbox sound of Jones' theme playing softly against a background of strings.
9. Wheel Of Fortune--This track starts out as a variation of a Pirates 1 theme heard earlier in track 4. It evolves into a large combination of instruments and sounds. One can hear bits of already established Dead Man's Chest themes and recurring bits of Curse of the Black Pearl themes. The track turns back towards Davy Jones' theme and the musicbox theme is played briefly before turning into elements heard in the Kraken. It then turns right back into the theme from Pirates 1. Again, the theme is back to the Dead Man's Chest version and parts of the Jack Sparrow track. The track ends with the Dead Man's Chest version of the main Pirates theme with some bits of The Kraken mixed in.
10. You Look Good Jack--This track is a bit slower in rhythm than the others and starts off very dark and melancholy. Elements of Tia Dalma are reinstated within this track, as well as the main Dead Man's Chest theme. Again, one hears the electric guitar ripping out power chords as the melody of the main Pirates theme. The theme ends with a brief revisit to the Kraken.
11. Hello Beastie--This is another very melancholy and reflective theme. Themes from Davy Jones' and the Kraken can be heard, as well as a distant heartbeat every once in a while. The track bulids towards the end and ends with the same the Dead Man's Chest version of the main Pirates theme.
12. He's A Pirate (Tiesto Remix)--This is a really cool remix of some sounds and themes from Curse of the Black Pearl. If you don't like trance/techno, you won't like this song very well. If you do, enjoy!
Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest Poster
Captain Jack Sparrow is back for more action and adventure on the high seas! Once again thrown into the world of the supernatural, Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) finds out that he owes a blood debt to the legendary Davey Jones (Bill Nighy), captain of the ghostly Flying Dutchman. And as if this weren't enough, the captain's problems manage to wreck the wedding plans of a certain Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightly), who are forced to join Jack on yet another misadventure.Soundtrack features original score by Hans Zimmer plus a bonus remix track by the world-renowned DJ Tiesto.

The soundtrack for the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie was infamous for having been whipped up rather hastily. For the sequel, Hans Zimmer takes the reins and comes up with his best effort in ages. Things start off with a nice cello theme for Johnny Depp's character, "Jack Sparrow." After that, it's high gear all the way, beginning with "The Kraken," on which Zimmer unleashes gales of symphonic aggro. Even when he closely follows what Hollywood execs clearly believe are set-in-stone rules for contemporary soundtracks, he throws in interesting wrenches. He does cram in both wailing female vocals and stomping percussion in "Dinner Is Served," but then the track abruptly turns into the kind of demented waltz you usually get from Danny Elfman. As usual with sequels, winks to the first movie pop in and out--the Black Pearl theme reappears in "I've Got My Eye on You" and "Hello Beastie"--but overall this album is more consistent. At least until you get to the final track, that is, a pounding offering by melodic-trance overlord DJ Tiësto. Pirates, wave your arms in the air like you just don't care. --Elisabeth Vincentelli
