5.0 out of 5 stars BOOMING score akin to Prokofiev's "Alex Nevsky", August 26, 2004

Here's a BOOMING score that's akin to Prokofiev's "Alexander Nevsky", and SO much more!

I was blown away while watching "The Atomic Bomb Movie" narrated by William Shatner on TV. Aside from the awesome spectacle of seeing atom and hydrogen bombs flair up into mushroom clouds, the score-- the score really put the show over the top! I love bomb-basting scores that really have oomph in them and this one is a kicker!

It was so powerfully locked within my mind that years later when I searched for the DVD, I did so for the sole purpose of listening to the heart-pounding score. To my delight, the DVD had a feature where you could listen to the score on its own (that alone tells you how much this score rocks). My only disappointment was that I couldn't burn the pieces to a CD. How I would love to take this CD on the road, listening to it in my car having a power-trip! Well, to my supreme delight, the producers were smart enough to sell the CD by itself!

Here it is in all its glory-- don't miss this one! 5 BIG stars!

5.0 out of 5 stars Classical Thunder move over!!!, February 7, 2007

I am by no means a classical music expert, but this music tells as much of the story of the evolution of the atomic bomb as the movie does. Whoever teamed up William Stromberg and the makers of this movie hit it out of the park. I highly recommend the movie too, it's not preachy and covers the history like a true documentary with very intense footage. Narrated by my hero, William Shatner. I was fortunate enough to see it in HD and WOW! The music only makes it better, Classical Thunder move over!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars One to remember - lest we forget, September 23, 2005

I must admit, I've listened to a lot of music and a lot of soundtracks but few have come close to matching the the specticle displayed on the screen so perfectly. Stromberg's score created a very powerfull sense of menace and doom. It really brought out a sense of poignancy and the music coupled with the terrible images of atomic bombs and people dieing in the fallout of Hiroshima had me almost in tears. Films and music like this don't get enough recognition so this it one review the score thouroughly deserves!
