Product description
TvYu-Gi-Oh! ~ Yu-Gi-Oh: Music To Duel By
Amazon.com
While many soundtracks include music "inspired by" a given property, Music to Duel By is intended to inspire. The songs on this companion to the Yu-Gi-Oh global phenomenon (toys, cartoons, software) is supposed to provide background music for the tension-packed card games played by Yu-Gi-Oh enthusiasts. The album opens with the TV show's theme, a hyperkinetic mix of symphonic sounds and industrial metal, and contains a few other songs heard on the series, but most of the music appears here for the first time. Three of the entries are singled out as "special battle tracks," and they sound very much like high-end video game scores: the of-the-moment drum & bass percussion, the campily canned violins, the grab-bag source material. Those cuts are admirable for their short-attention-span theatricality, the way the various distinct musical segments edge the tension up a notch at a time, allowing for an occasional balladic moment of repose. Some of the vocal tracks evidence that peculiar Japanese fascination with overproduced '80s American pop, and will likely send kids running to their Linkin Park and Mudvayne CDs, but it's hard to argue with an album that includes a limited-edition set of stickers. --Marc Weidenbaum

It does make pretty good car music and I will admit that I did catch myself head-banging to this album. While I won't go song-by-song and rate them all, I will say this...I saw running through the songs and noticed on 'Heart of the Cards' (song 13) that Eric Stuart (aka Seto Kaiba) has a part in it. I about squealed like a little kid. I was a big Kaiba fan (still am, if the truth is told). I also enjoyed 'I'm Back" for much of the same reason.
Anyway, I do recommend picking this up, especially if you plan on using this to commemorate a grand final duel between you and a family member.

洋画やコミックムービーのBGMみたいで、こちらのアニメのBGMとはまたひと味違った雰囲気なのと、声を当てている役者さんが歌っていたりもするので、アメリカではこんな感じなのかなあ…とか思いながら、他の作業をしている時にPCでかけたりしています。
洋モノが嫌いでなければ、創る人種が違うとこうなるんだなあという比較対象として聴いてみるのも、なかなか面白いと思いますよ。
メタル調有り、ラップ調有りとBGMとして重宝してます。
イギリス人の友人は笑って聞いてましたけど、歌詞の意味はともかく
音楽としては楽しめます。
さりげなく『海馬コーポレーション』って歌詞が入ったり、
木馬君が英語で兄様を呼んだりする所が有ったりと、
笑いのツボも押さえてます!
買ってみてよかったです♪
