Music: Various, Sony Music
Orchestral/pop: If you liked Hans Zimmer’s work in Man Of Steel’s soundtrack, and more so, if you liked the latest Amazing Spider-Man movie, you’ll find plenty in here to sink your teeth into. Apart from Zimmer and the Magnificent Six’s work that dominate the album, you also get song set pieces from Pharrell Williams, Jesse James, Alvin Risk and more.On the whole, Zimmer’s music is more edgy and contemporary.

More urbane, if you can call it that. Zimmer’s orchestral maneuvers can be listened to by itself while the rest of it, forms the second chunk or chapter that has a different mood. I’m Electro is dramatic but disappointingly short. My Enemy mixes daubs of techno with washes of dubstep to good effect. Ground Rules, You Need Me, I’m Moving to England and Let Her Go are sweet and sentimental, some too short. Special Project too is another high point where the mood is of a suspense type of buildup.

So Much Anger also has parts that sound almost too dramatic even for a superhero film, but in a good way. You end up wishing it was lengthier. Still Crazy is dubstep, so if you’re not into that, you can skip it. A worthy addition to your collection if you like movie soundtracks that feature an eclectic range of music.
