    The movie was very entertaining. The music was great - especially the rock and roll by such greats as Dr. John and Grand Funk Railroad. BUT, NONE of that great rock and roll is included in this cd. That's what I wanted - I guess I didn't read the fine print closely enough.

    Raving reviews about the music drove me to purchase this soundtrack - my first Clint Mansell score. When "Ironclad" began, I felt transported into a period of adventure much like the effect of James Newton Howard's score to WATERWORLD.

    I immediately fell in love with Mansell's action-packed score written for orchestra with inclusion of electronic elements. Some of the tracks contain fun, rhythmic, ethnic elements giving the score a somewhat "epic" feel.

    Favorite tracks:
    -Ironclad (Awesome brass theme build up with percussion choir!)
    -Hold Tight! (Fast paced action scoring!)
    -Hold Tighter! (Most fast paced action scoring!)
    -Bomb Alley/Ironclad Revealed/Victory (Longest track on album)

    This is definitely a surprise among many overlooked scores of 2005. Don't miss this one!



    5 out of 5 stars Hold Tight!   June 29, 2006

    To put it simply, I love this soundtrack.

    Clint Mansell, who scored the catchy but sinister Requiem for a Dream theme, manages here to fuse desert tunes with fast-paced, block-buster style sounds. I know, it sounds a little wild, but that's exactly what this soundtrack is--wild.

    My personal favorites include the opening theme, "Ironclad," and it's remix "Rock On!" "Hold Tight" and "Hold Tighter" are two songs that always manage to get me riled up, and "Truck Escape" has a beat that'll stay stuck in your head for hours to come. I know other reviewers have recommended these songs, but I liked them so much I had to suggest them too.

    I think the last few soundtracks Clint Mansell has scored have been excellent, and I believe it's only a matter of time before he matches ranks with the likes of Hans Zimmer and James Horner, two other composers that I respect very much. I can't wait to hear what he comes up with next.



    5 out of 5 stars A Great Adventure Soundtrack!   August 24, 2005

    This soundtrack has a lot of great music!
    Clint Mansell has done a great job making the music.

    It has soft and tender music, like ""Calliope at Night" and "Bonding", but also great action-adventure music like the adventures theme that is heard at "All Aboard!" But you can also find great action-adventure music in tracks like "Hold tight!" and "Hold Tighter!"
    But the soundtrack also includes african music, with people singing. Tracks like "Here we Go!" and "Celebration" Which are a joy to listen to.
    If you are more a fan of suspencefull music, you can listen to "Into the unknown" Which begins with beautiful music, and goes slowly further into suspencefull music. The title of the track says it all.
    Also "Kazim's theme" is slow and ritmic but yet fritening.
    On this soundtrack you can also hear a lot of music that gives the feeling of hot desert lands, and arabic influence. Tracks like "Solar plant" and especially "Mosque", but also "Truck escape (Which is very fun adventure music)"

    With other words, all kinds of instrumental music style can be found on this soundfull soundtrack!

    The great thing about this soundtrack is that it gives the feeling of the movie back while listening to it. That is always a good thing.

    The music is powerfull, fun, ritmic, refreshing, beautiful, but most of all, it gives the sound of adventure.
    I hope you will enjoy this soundtrack as much as I do!

    Great to hear the sounds that went with the movie and not just the album that was inspired by the movie. I loved to get sound tracks because eveytime you listen it brings the action back.
