Twilight - Soundtrack

***Twilight Soundtrack - Various Artists*** The brilliant choice of music was put together by music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas - who perfectly captured the whole teenage love/angst theme. This review may contain spoilers as I have touched on the film in my descriptions of tracks, so only read on if you have seen the film. Supermassive Black Hole - Music This accompanied the memorable Vampires Baseball scene and is a really rocking song, with great lyrics and a great beat, with heavy guitar. It was brilliantly inspired to put this music with this scene. I can picture the Vampires hitting that ball now lol! It is a great track to run to ...  Read the complete review

I will preface this review by adding that I didn't buy this album; a friend of mine bought it and played it. To be honest it's a fairly decent collection of songs that's absolutely going to appeal to the Twilight crowd, and so while it's not all my bag, it's fine for its target audience, and that's fair enough really. The album opens with Muse's epic Supermassive Black Hole, and while it was used very poorly in the film's most cringe-worthy scene, it is a great and energetic song to start the album. What the album does well is to typify what the film is all about, with songs such as Paramore's "Decode" encompassing the longing of love and the turmoil ...  Read the complete review

We all know by now the huge impact the 'Twilight' film has had on a worldwide scale. The series is incredibly popular amongst its target audience and the theatrical release last December has only seen it extend its grip upon new legions of fans. Of course like any good film release, there is also an official soundtrack which has gone on to break records of its own spending 20 weeks in the American Billboard charts and selling over 2 million copies. The soundtrack is essentially a compilation album featuring pieces of music composed by various artists as well as a mixture of songs from bands as well. 'Twilight' at its core is a love story but it is a love story ...  Read the complete review

This album presents the soundtrack songs from the feature film of Twilight. There are twelve songs on the album, and in general, it is more of a soft rock album for girls. Not sure if it matters to anyone, but they are not in the order of the film's sequence. 1. Supermassive Blackhole by Muse, 10/10. Perhaps I've overrated this first song, but this is probably my favourite out of the whole album. Very snazzy and full of energy. Not really one to dance along to, but I just feel so energised and motivated after listening to this. The get up and go feel. Brilliant if I'm feeling sluggish. Perfectly apt for the baseball scene. 2. Decode by ...  Read the complete review

I received the 'Twilight' soundtrack as a gift for Christmas. The film which it relates to is one which in turn relates to the 'Twilight' series of books by Stephanie Meyer which I read last summer/autumn. It is a series which charts the story of a vampire who falls in love with a 17 year old girl. From the first chapter I was hooked. But did I find that the soundtrack fitted in well with the film? Track 1: Muse~ Supermassive Black Hole Having read the acknowledgements in 'New Moon', Meyer presents herself as a music fan drawing influence from rock, alternative and indie performers in the writing of her works. These include Travis, Elbow, ...  Read the complete review
