My Critique of the New Moon Soundtrack
Anyone who follows the indie rock music scene may have already discovered the New Moon soundtrack. I heard it for the first time a few days ago and I'd like to give a quick review.
Why would indie bands be willing to contribute to the soundtrack of a teen vampire movie series? I was really surprised to see this, as there's no way in the world I'd ever be interested in watching these movies.
I didn't even have a clue as to what New Moon was before I read a review for this album. I don't watch the WB and I had no interest in seeing such a movie. I still have no interest in doing so, but I do love the soundtrack.
I'm still confused by the fact that these bands are on the New Moon soundtrack. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if half of these bands had never even heard of the show before they were asked to make music for it.
Whatever their motives were for agreeing to do this together, the end result is pretty fascinating. I've found myself listening to this soundtrack quite a bit since I got it last week, and while I'll never see the movie, I'll definitely be listening to this some more.
There are more great bands on this soundtrack than just about any soundtrack I've heard within the last year or two. From Muse and Thom York to Bon Iver and St. Vincent, these are just a few of the many accomplished artists and bands on the New Moon soundtrack.
The guitar based songs here are great, and some thrilling solos capture the vampire essence of the movie throughout. The electronic based tracks are pretty intriguing too, with a spooky feel to them that blends right into the theme of the soundtrack.
If you're willing to forget about the fact that this is actually the soundtrack for a teen vampire movie, you'll be very pleasantly surprised with the result. - 23806
