5.0 out of 5 stars A Good UNDERWORLD Score Again from Haslinger March 2, 2012
Format:MP3 Music|Amazon Verified Purchase
I rated this 5 stars because it's a good score for the Underworld films and compliments the movie well. If you're a fan of the series and a fan of Haslinger's previous work on the series, then you'll undoubtedly enjoy this. Nice album art as well.

3.0 out of 5 stars Standard Action Fare With Some Interesting Textures February 29, 2012
Format:Audio CD
Paul Haslinger composed the first Underworld back in 2003. The second film was taken over by Marco Beltrami, but Haslinger returned for the next two films. Yes if you're counting that makes 4 Underworld films. How and why this has happened is beyond me. I guess they tailor to the same crowd as the Resident Evil films, which is hitting its fifth installment this fall. For this outing we stay in familiar territory with Haslinger's electronic infused soundscape.

The music for Underworld: Awakening has some interesting textures every now and then, but it mostly stays in the brooding agression stage. The second half of the album is where things start to pick up in terms of pacing and action. Here we get some fun action music. The score feels very 90's to me, and I mean that in a good way. The ever escalating tracks with moments of rising tension that explode make it fun. The score does take itself seriously though, and it works. I was never bored with the music, but I wasn't very thrilled by it either. It functions exactly as it was meant to, and you can't ask for much more in a drawn out series like this one.

If you're looking for Haslinger's pure inspiration for this series I would rewind back to the first Underworld. At this point he's running through the motions and can only do so much with what's given to him. I found lots of the electronic textures to be interesting and everything meshes well. Structurally the score isn't perfect, but that's more of a reflection of the film the score is fitting to. Underworld: Awakening is worth a listen especially if you're a fan of Haslinger or the series overall.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Soundtrack March 11, 2012
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Paul Haslinger's latest effort for the Underworld Franchise is rather commendable.
I wasn't really a big fan of his work on Underworld and Underworld: Rise of the lycans.
But in awakening, the music does a great job of bringing you back to the movie with some
rememberable tunes.
