1.0 out of 5 stars Good god, what is this MESS supposed to be?, June 12, 2003

Seriously, there's not a single reason to purchase this CD when you can get the original Soundtrack by Howard Shore.
First of all, the tracks on this album are not in film order. Ok, that's not really bad, but that many parts repeat themselves within a single track, is.
All pieces sound terribly synthetic, are too silently mixed and lack the impressive Elvish vocals featured in the OST.
After all this, the lack of five tracks from the OST doesn't really matter.

Couldn't listen to it. Lack of 5 tracks, SYNTHESIZERS, and no information on anything... It doesn't even deserve a star.

This CD is absolutely horrible. It lacks everthing that made the original music so good, including REAL INSTRUMENTS... What a waste of money- just buy the real thing.
