The Dark Knight Rises : Official Score Soundtrack



I've always been a movie score junkie. Whether it was those initial bursts of joy from hearing the classics from Indiana Jones, Superman and Star Wars or something as simple and wonderful as Psycho - there was something that drew me into the grandiose world of strings and euphoria.

Perhaps it was a way to allow me to relive my favourite movie moments without having to actually park my butt in front of a TV screen, perhaps it was the opportunity to (like people do now with video games) place myself inside the worlds which I love so dear (here's a tip, try driving down the freeway with Alan Silvestri's Back To The Future score and try not swerving between lanes in hopes that you hit 88 mph) - my point is, they are awesome.

Some of my recent favourites have all come from one man - Hans Zimmer. Whether it's Gladiator, Pirates of the Caribbean (for the record, pretty much identical scores) or Inception the guy knows how to simultaneously create a sense of adventure and dread.

His The Dark Knight score was earth shatteringly amazing, and he has stepped it up a gear for The Dark Knight Rises... don't believe me... listen to it for yourself.

If that hasn't got you in the mood for one of the most anticipated movies of the decade, then I don't know what will!

Enjoy!
