After some deliberation I have decided that I will post download links alongside the albums I review (however ones that have already been posted, like the Skyrim one and such you will have to find yourself). Please know that I do not endorse the illegal download of albums, and that you should listen to it once, then delete it. The way the music industry is dying, we need to give it all the help it can get, so please, if you like an album, just go out and buy it.

Mass Effect III

Probably one of the best games of 2011, and of all time (atleast from what I've read and seen, I'm not a huge gamer myself) Mass Effect 3 broke many hearts and created mass contreversy over what many avid ME3 fans called - the worst ending ever. Be that as it may, this particular misdemanour by the creators had no effect on the quality of the soundtrack, which is one of the better ones of 2011, but what else would you expect from Mansell?
Composer: Clint Mansell and Sam Hulick

The Dark Knight has very easily been one of the most successful films of the first decade of the 21st century, as finally it seems as though an iconic marvel superstar has found a fitting film. Hans Zimmer has risen alongside the Batman franchise, taking the crown as the most sought after composer of the past few years. I've never been a huge fan of Zimmer's work when listened to alone, yet his music usually seems to fit the movie quite well. The Dark Knight is no exception. Although the suspenseful songs with not much at all can be rather drawn-out and un-exciting, and many of the bombastic action-dominated songs sound pretty much the same, there is a fair share of good, enjoyable tracks that makes this, an overall, passable soundtrack.




Composer - Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard
Year - 2008
Rating - 3.4/5
Genre - Modern Classical/Suspenseful/Epic

Harvey Two-Face (an absolutely incredible song, makes this soundtrack worthwhile)
