I'm taking this moment to redeem my last review from the New Moon soundtrack. I was not smart in the fact that I posted the review probably a day after I first listened to the CD and I'm sorry to say I didn't give it the justice and credit it truly deserved. I wasn't born a fan of Indie music. As another reviewer has stated, you need to take some time to approach this particular style. If you don't, you'd probably turn away from it after the first listen. But after some time and hitting replay many many times over, the New Moon soundtrack turned out to the be one of my favorite compilation of songs I have ever come across. I still listen to it over and over, even a year later. And now, I was so excited for this new Eclipse soundtrack. I kept thinking - "Please have indie! Please have indie!" (diehard fan now people...it happens). And...it does kind of sort of have indie...but not really. This CD has a more of an alternative, edgy feel to it - especially with songs like "Chop and Change" and "Rolling In On A Burning Tire." And you know? I kind of love it. It's like I've been transported inside Jacob's head. Although the only drawback I'd say is this: yes, new moon was probably the saddest storyline and I thought the score of the film fit perfectly. But Eclipse has always been the more tragic of all four books. Maybe it's because I'm a Jacob fan, but really, he's hurting folks! And there's a bitter edge to him now as he is so hopelessly in love with Bella. So in this soundtrack, I wish there were a little more tragedy to it. I definitely felt some of it in the beautiful track "My Love" and then especially in the haunting melody of "Jacob's theme." I can picture the direction the score will take and I think I will be quite pleased, thank you. But the songs didn't quite give me the full range of emotions I feel while reading the book. It's got edge, it's even got pep, but the tragedy I'm looking for is slightly lacking.
Standout Tracks to me: Ours (it's catchy, i can't help it!), Heavy in Your Arms, A Million Miles an Hour, What Part of Forever, Jacob's Theme.

First, let me say I'm a huge fan of TWILIGHT everything, and I pre-ordered this CD ahead of the movie. Dude, it's dull. Even from the perspective that this is Jacob's movie, it lacks the edginess that characterized the first two albums.
During the first movie I sat up in my seat and LISTENED to the TWILIGHT soundtrack. I mean, "Supermassive Black Hole"? Fabulous! The songs by Paramore? Wonderful! "Full Moon" by the Black Ghosts? Delightful. (Incidently, their album is great, too. Not on this album but an undeniable asset to the movie was Radiohead's "Fifteen Steps." And, of course, Pattinson himself, although I wish the track was "Let Me Sign" instead, but I'll take what I can get.
The NEW MOON C/D had "Shooting The Moon" with its surprisingly big finish. "Monsters" had me moving. "Rosyln" and "Slow Life" weren't edgy but they were innovative and unique.
ECLIPSE in contrast can only point to "Chop and Change" as having any meat to it. "Heavy in Your Arms" was the other track that even remotely caught my interest. Everything else was just there. When you consider that ECLIPSE was leading up to an intense vampire war, what's with such an uninspiring soundtrack?
When I go to the movies, I want the music to HEIGHTEN my experience. I want it to BE THERE, subliminally tugging at my attention while I'm engrossed in the action on the big screen. I want to mentally register that "Hey! This is a cool song!" without taking my eyes off the action. I want to search the end credits for the name of the band and the track. That being said, not one song on the ECLIPSE soundtrack aroused that curiosity in me. It flat missed the boat.

I won't dig too deep into reviewing this particular CD because there are a lot better reviewers than me who already wrote something about it.
I will just say that the soundtracks for The Twilight Saga are getting better and better. I'm a music lover in general, with a very open mind I must add, so I'm probably not the most reliable reviewer when it comes to reviewing music. As it was the case with the New Moon soundtrack, I was already a huge fan of several included artists. Some of those names are Muse, Florence and the Machine, The Dead Weather and Beck. I have to say that if you know something about this kind of alternative music, then you will absolutely enjoy it. It's rock, alternative, bluesy and also filled with fast beats so you can really listen to it without skipping songs. The "New Moon" dark vibe is almost gone in this one, the songs are really faster and lighter. I could easily listen to most of the songs while working out or doing something around the house.
Unfortunately, the Twilight Saga in general is mainly targeting teen/YA population, who don't understand good music yet because they are either too young or used to popular genres. So be careful believing the negative reviews, not all of them are constructive criticism.
As I've said above, there are much thorough reviews if you're interested in each song separately, but thank you for viewing my opinion!
I will definitely recommend this CD to my friends, who are not Twi-hards for sure.

Unlike the previous two Twilight movie soundtracks, I didn't wait for the movie to come out before I bought the music. I thought that I wouldn't like the music as much - not being able to re-live the movie scenes in my head along with the songs. However, I really enjoyed this CD. The music on this soundtrack has songs that I think are more marketable to the general public, so I didn't need to see the movie first to enjoy the music. I can't say that one Twilight Saga soundtrack is better than the others, but my husband can. He still says that "Twilight" (movie and soundtrack) are the best so far. No matter if you like the movies or not, the music on this CD is great and totally addicting. It has lived in my CD player in my car since I pre-ordered it back in June. Definitely worth every penny.

Why buy the mp3 version when you can purchase the cd for less, and get an mp3 download from Amazon? This is the deluxe edition with 2 bonus tracks, which includes a pull out poster. Music is great, I love it!

I am just catching up on my reviews and noticed that I haven't yet given this one! Even six month after buying this it is still on my favourite CD pile in the kitchen for when I'm cooking. They always make really brilliant soundtracks to go with the films and this one was yet another brilliant one. If you haven't bought it yet or you think that soundtracks are rubbish they I would definitely recommend buying not only this one but the others too. I love that fact that they find unknown artists as well as the big names and by doing so introduce you to a whole new set of music. Definitely worth buying!
