This is more wonderful music from soundtrack composer Michael Giacchino. There is a greater number of slower-paced, melancholy tracks than on the first season soundtrack, but it's a great progression nevertheless. The high-speed action techno tracks remain exciting as usual, while the slower ones are quite emotive. Unfortunately, like with the previous soundtrack, the music from the show's closing credits is not included (though the same melody is peppered throughout both CDs). Here's hoping for future soundtrack releases for Seasons 3 and 4!

yes the score is very good but i think an album with a couple of songs heard on the show would be great to.trough the 4 seasons of the show,they featured a lots of great tunes from really talented artists (sarah maclachlan,u2,cat stevens,jet,etc...).SOi think the show deserves to have it own album like the rest of the TV shows of our time.The only thing i hope is that if they make one,they won't use those which totally not suit the spirit of the show like sex and the city and summerland soundtracks!...
the ideal soundtrack would be:
jet:last chance
kate bush:this woman's work
stars:going,going,gone
matt beckler:from the summer
hathaway:there's something better
daniel lenz:spy
josh canova:almost ran
the crystal method:starting over
U2:bad
jude:you all...everybody
debbie wesberg:home
michelle featherstone:stay
sarah maclachlan:worlds on fire (alias mix)
so what are you waiting for?!...

As a huge Alias fan, I was ecstatic when I got this soundtrack. Sadly, the majority of it consisted of slow, sad songs that were honestly pretty boring. I was looking forward to more loud and exciting songs, but there's probably only about 4 or 5 of those on here. If you like all the musics on Alias though, I'd say go for it!

Was thoroughly satisfied with this release of early Giachinno at his finest. Sure, there's a lot more sombre cues (as opposed to the up-beat dance sequences prevalent in Alias season 1), but Season 2 is a lot more serious and sombre than Season 1 - and the music fits perfectly.

Am annoyed the Alias Seasons 3-5 soundtracks have not seen commercial forms yet. Season 2 was special, as it was the last season to really pump out the dance/techno scores during the action scenes. By Season 4, Giachinno's score has become 100% orchestral.

It came well packaged and was what I had ordered. Unfortunatley I didn't realize this was the orchestral soundtrack as I was looking for the soundtrack of songs they included in each episode. Good service though.
