5.0 out of 5 stars Truly one of the best score from an anime show!, March 7, 2004

By	HB "grandsachi" (Montreal, Quebec Canada) - See all my reviews

Yuki Kajiura is rapidly making her place as one of the best composer in the world of anime soundtracks and Noir is, in my opinion, her best work! Her style, that can be categorised as New-Age/World Fusion, is highly inspired by occidental/European music but her Japanese origin gives it a unique feeling (think of Enigma meets Kitaro). This Volume Two is softer and slower than Volume One but it certainly doesn't mean that it isn't as good! In fact, there are some truly amazing songs on this album (Le Grand Retour and Killing are among the best songs in the entire show!). Yoko Kanno, look behind you! Yuki is just there!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great CD, horribe price., November 13, 2005

By	Erik Brun "Giren Zabi" (Woodbury, Mn United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I friggen love this anime series and this CD. It has some of the best songs Ive ever heard on an anime, and everyone should hear it.

However $44.000 isnt worth it. There are way better deals online if you just search for it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy the US release for cheaper price, September 13, 2006

By	Simple Man "SM" (Fermilab) - See all my reviews

Geneon Anime Music has released the Noir OST 1 and OST 2 CD for domestic US market. The listprice is about $15, sometimes during sale as cheap as $10. Better, the included lyrics and essays are written in English. Try some credible online anime store (AnimeCornerStore, RightStuf, AnimeNation). The third soundtrack (blanc dans Noir) and the opening theme single are only available in Japan release.
