The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Original Soundtrack)

Get Bryan ferry the real singer . He’s the real guy you all mess it up

Not the best

This is the perfect example of a musical score which doesn't go overt. Outside of the song used for the credits, there isn't a particularly memorable theme. But all of the songs are unique and fit into the film well. I use this soundtrack for studying since it's perfect background music. It's a masterful musical score for a masterful film.

This is one of my personal favorite Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross soundtracks. This soundtrack has a great flow, track after track. Also, this soundtrack has great vocals, great drum solos, electric piano solos, and great guitar solos as well. Finally, the instruments wrap around the vocals like no other, and intertwine perfectly. Definitely looking forward to the next soundtrack and original score from Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.

You can enjoy a good number of tracks on here if you found yourself ever wandering back to the ghosts release. I happen to enjoy ambient b/c of having randomly acquiring aphex twin's selected ambient works volume 2 and after not liking it for having no clue about what ambient was and being used to his general stuff which may as well at times be like reznor but I found a real nice enjoyment of it when I later went back to it. So if you like ambient music this is worth 10.00 if you aren't sure then you may want to sample it on YouTube. I would hope reznor can dig up more of an old school nin style of music just without the lyrics. That would be what fans should expect from him in a score and he did it a little more in the social network I guess.

Why isn't lux aeterna on this sound track

one of the best soundtracks to ever be composed, seriously. since the moment i heard "she reminds me of you" i was hooked. honestly i've listened to at least half of this score every single day for the past year. i write my best stuff to it, i have to watch out when i listen to it depending on my mood; meaning, it can facilitate some dark thoughts in me--it is that powerful. now, everyone's different, but i take my music very seriously, it affects me in a real way, and this just gets me every time.

I'm surprised it has so many high reviews , u will find these songs just over extended and repeating mostly same beat from start to end .

1st score I've ever downloaded ...

Reznor and Ross have established themselves as being the next big thing in Hollywood scoring. Unfortunately, their collaborations seem to be something akin to a one hit wonder. Much like The Social Network, the music here is bland and near unlistenable in some cases. The constant reliance on electronics dampens the experience and there is no continuity whatsoever with themes and motifs seemingly thrown out the window. This is due to Reznor's scoring method in which he does not even see the film while writing the music, he just writes what he thinks would go well with a scene. The total product shows his overall ineptitude for syncing dramatic moments with flourishes in the score. This score could have a better shelf life as a solo album or an "inspired by" album. Any director who knows his music would have fired Reznor for his debacle on The Social Network and made sure to grab Howard Shore in order to delegate him to the type of insipid jobs that only Tyler Bates seems to be lurking around in. Save your money on this one, guys. If you feel that you really need it, just pirate it so that Reznor's grubby hands will not touch your hard-earned cash.
