Free Music Review: Get it for Christmas!
Hit: 5 Stars
I still have "Buy Resident Evil Soundtrack" on my to do list, but with the release of the Resident Evil Apocalypse movie it got bumped back so that I could by this first. My brother, whom had listened to most of the songs online, was sent with some of my savings off to buy me copy. A few hours later, the soundtrack was in my possession.
I will let you know that I absolutely LOVED the seond Resident Evil movie and therefore had high expectations for the album. I was sorely disapointed when "Not Listening" by Papa Roach (which is played in the Trailer for RE2) was indeed not on the tracklist. Not that perturbed however I sat down to listen to the albumn. At first, I was extremely disapointed, now, after listening to it properly, it hasn't left my discman and CD player for long!!
It starts off strong with Slipknot's Vermillion but then seemed to declined alittle, in my first estimations, until about Swamped by Lacuna Coil. I will admit both The Used and The Cure's song have since grown on me, and I will gladly listen to them, although you may find yourself alittle bored and disheartened by these tracks if you're like me. I assure you, Do not switch off your CD players! By far "Outsider" and "The End of Heartache" are the best songs on the albumn. I am partial to the vocalist of Tool, but this song is very good! Killswitch Engage's song at Number six probably deserved to be pushed alittle up on the track order as most people will recognise it as the song playing from the credits, but nonetheless I was overjoyed when I heard it! IT ROCKS!!
Rammstein is by far a very good metal band, although it seriously cracks up alot of my friends to hear people sing in German, but the music seriously makes up for the fact that I can't understand most of the words. Number eight is the worst song, in my view, on the albumn, not only because of the singers icky voice but also the mediocre rhyme in lyrics really didn't impress me.
I would like to say that the second half of the albumn is seriously awesome, alot more consistently good than the first. Nymphetamine is a brilliant song, the contrast between the light music and female vocalist goes well with the heavy backdrop. Even if you don't like Cradle of Filth (myself not being tht keen on alot of their songs) this song is indeed brilliant. CKY is another good song, with the bridge being the feature that causes you to go back and listen to it later. The Deftones song, certainly finds itself in my good estimations, but does try your patience. Even when I find myself listening to it now, I am constantly waiting for that really heavy bit to kick in, unfortunately it doesn't really have any stark pinacle, there is one around the third minute, but its alittle too close to the end of the song, besides this, the chorus is softer than the versus too muchly so.
New paragraph! Just to break monotomy! ^_^
Now we reach song number twelve, "Join me in Death" by HIM. At the start of the song, I thought the song was rather 'poppy' for a metal band, but if you give it alittle time, you'll find me wrong. I really do like this song, the clear lyrics really get you listening and involved with the song. There is a good balance here, the song has a rather gentle theme, but it is managed well with a strong beat, guitars and the dominant melody on the piano. Another good hit. Nightwish comes next and its paired up well after HIM, with another song with the piano intro. Nightwish is my brother's favourite band and I am not quite partial to them as I hear them blazing every time he washes up the dinner. Despite this, this song is quite tolerable, I like the singer's voice and enjoy the song. It gets alot of credit from my friends, who also like it on first impressions. It was the most "folk-like" song on the soundtrack.
Killing Time, by Thrice, is another brilliant song. It was one of the songs that when I originally flicked through the album thought was really good. Another one you'll be reaching to hit repeat. This song is coupled with another good song, Bloodwork by 36 crazy fists and the echoing vocals compliment the song well. This song builds up every chorus with both a crushendo (sp) in both vocals and instruments whilst the middle has an awesome section!! This is simply one of the best songs along with "Outsider" and "The End of Heartache".
Cold is a good band, I've loved them since Remedy. I should remind you that this is the acoustic version of the song 'End of the World" and I guess this takes the edge of the song away. I should have to listen to the real song but the acoustic version makes the song somewhat more tolerable for the older members of my family who do comment on the skill in the guitar in this. Either way, its still a good song and gets a thumbs up from me.
The last two songs are alright, they're alittle obscure in my memory and I really don't remember them as well as the other. Girl of Fire is good though, I like it, although Massive Attacks is recalled in my mind to be mostly instrumental but still a nice end to a good sountrack.
WOW!! My review is over. I should tell you to listen to this albumn a few times over at first, stick it on MEdia Player on your comp or in your car and don't judge it on first impression and on the first few songs. The fact that the CD ends with really goos songs, rather than all the goos songs being right at the start and some crappy ones at the end, really sets it apart from other albums. This CD is a snapshot of new metal, metal and folk metal and if you're not a metal fan than I don't advise you to buy this. Otherwise, this CD is FCUKING BRILLIANT!!! BUY IT FOR CHRISTMAS!!
