So i adore the old John Williams symphonic scores. But times change.
Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross are just killing it, with the most Watchmen-iest score imaginable. The somber tones, and ragey undustrial techno just so fit the dystopian madness of the world that has Dr. Manhattan in it.
I think more super hero movies should use them.
I’ve been a Reznor fan for years and I think his & Ross’ Watchmen soundtrack is some of his best work. Perfect for the show.
I didn’t realize this was them until the last episode when I noticed that one of the pieces sounded a lot like something from Gone Girl. I was pleasantly surprised to see it was the same composers - I loved the music of that movie and they really have been killing it here, too
