Product Description

The score for Epic Games' "Gears of War" was composed by Kevin Riepl and features over 60 minutes of orchestral music inspired by blockbuster movie soundtracks such as "Alien", "Predator" and "Starship Troopers".

The recordings were performed by the Northwest Sinfonia (Halo, Medal of Honor) at the Bastyr University Chapel in Seattle.

Having spent spans of 24 hours or more with X-box 360 controller in my hands and giddily giggling like a school-girl as yet another Wretch is ground into pulp by a chainsaw or shotgun blast, I just had to have this cd when it was finally released.

One of the great things about the game was the feeling that you were having a real cinematic experience filling the massive boots of Marcus Fenix. While the HD visuals and the great voice work went a long way into making that experience work, in a lot of cases the music did an even better job.

Kevin Riepl has somehow managed to merge several different genre of musical sountracks into a sonic hammerburst with which your ears are reduced to puddles of blood, gore and DNA strands.

To easily sum up what this soundtrack reminds me of, take Christopher Franke of Babylon 5 fame, add a pinch of generic horror soundtracks through the ages, throw in a little of the dark marches of Howard Shore from his Lord of the Rings works, add a heaping helping of patriotic and military movie inspiration, and stir liberally.

If you liked/loved the game, then you've probably already caught your self humming the themes (or hearing them in your head) when no one was around... If so, get this NOW and you can tell the police officer who pulls you over for speeding on your way to work or school is that there is a swarm of Kryll chasing you and the UV cannon just died...
