{"product_id":"halo-2-original-soundtrack","title":"Halo 2 (Original Soundtrack)","description":"Amazon.com\n\nFurther proof that the 15-year-old male is the nexus of contemporary popular entertainment, this anthology of music from and \"inspired by\" the sequel to the earth-conquering Halo saga also showcases how capably the video game industry can trump even Hollywood's vaunted production values. The original synth-heavy underscore by Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori is filled with enough brooding, mock-Goth atmospherics, and pulsing exotica of indeterminate ethnicity to give the Hans Zimmer stable a run for their money, while a slate of (mostly) worthy rock star guest turns give it a welcome edge. Legendary axe-slinger Steve Vai's sinewy riffing punches up the reworked main theme and \"Never Surrender,\" while alt.metal contenders Breaking Benjamin serve up the suitably dramatic inspired-by cut \"Blow Me Away.\" But it's Incubus' four-part \"Odyssey\" suite that's the centerpiece, bridging 1970s prog and modern rock with its moody aura and evocative musical dramatics. --Jerry McCulley\n\nProduct description\n\nHalo 2 Original Soundtrack\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00067RF6E\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B00067RF6E.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Various Artists\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
