We're on fire
By E. A Solinas
"The Hunger Games" is one of a many approaching cinema of a whole year -- and so a strain is roughly as anticipated.
Well, notwithstanding a participation of Maroon 5 and Taylor Swift, it's a unequivocally NON-poppy collection of songs -- it's a well-spoken multiple of folk, rock, and country, flushed with a clarity of meaningful bittersweetness. There are a few stone numbers churned in, though "The Hunger Games: Songs From District 12 And Beyond" is a unequivocally quiet, condemned affair.
It kicks off with Arcade Fire's slow-blazing "Abraham's Daughter"; it unequivocally brings opposite a dark, unfortunate feeling with a girl's swirling vocals in a center of it all, with risk resounding on each side of her. It is AWESOME.
From there, we hear a fibre of quieter songs -- a Secret Sisters' gently fortifying "Tomorrow Will Be Kinder"; Neko Case's rippling "Nothing To Remember"; a Civil Wars' tremor duet "Kingdom Come"; a Low Anthem's ghastly "Lover is Childlike"; Jayme Dee's tenderly contemplative "Rules"; and finally Birdy's bittersweet piano ballad "Just A Game."
Maroon 5 also abandons their common sound, producing a rippling, dim ballad called "Come Away To The Water." As for Taylor Swift... "Safe and Sound" is a misty, soft-edged ballad that sounds beautiful, though "Eyes Open" is crook and a bit shriller.
But in a midst of all this mellow, softer stuff, there are a few stone numbers. There's Kid Cudi's buzzing, melancholy "The Ruler and a Killer," and Glen Hansard's sensational "Take The Heartland." And God magnify 'em, a Decemberists furnish a ideal alloy of folk/country and stone in "One Engine."
I approaching a few some-more fast-moving stone numbers in "The Hunger Games," given a film is about a fight-to-the-death contest -- definition there's substantially lots of action. But instead, it's a slow, solid tide of acoustic guitars ringed with bass, a skinny tide of blazing guitar and occasional piano. The whole manuscript has a homespun, worldly feel.
Lyrically, a strain seems to be focused on a emotions of a characters -- either it's Katniss Everdeen ("And we're on fire/Blow a lick to a crowd/They're a customarily wish now"), a oppressor overseeing a Games, or a people who give adult teenagers to quarrel ("Come divided to a water/Give yourself so we competence live anew").
But there were a integrate songs that didn't utterly click. Miranda Lambert and a Punch Brothers' songs were too totally country, and Glen Hansard's is a screamy repeated mess.
Despite a few missteps, there's an earthy, intense peculiarity to "The Hunger Games: Songs from District 12 and Beyond" that seems to couple together many of a songs. Beautiful and bittersweet.

Intriguing!!
By Rod Morgan
Now I'm REALLY looking brazen to a movie.
With strain by turns electro-industrial and acoustic-homeland-heritage, a "Songs from District 12 and Beyond" FIT a dystopian account utterly comfortably. Being good during this explains a few of T. Bone Burnett's 12 Grammy awards (he did identical consulting on "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" and fake a bluegrass revival), so we competence have approaching as much. Whether strange or remarkably-chosen, a songs supplement some engaging new imagery to a now-familiar story while emotionally relocating from tragedy and coercion to condolence and sorrow.
It will be engaging to see how all fits together (and there will also substantially be another hoop with a James Newton Howard score).
Let a games begin...soon!

Beautiful melancholy
By couldbutwont
**Disclaimer:I am not customarily a nation fan so take that into care while reading my review.
I suspicion a soundtrack was passed on as distant as where Katniss comes from, a enlightenment that would still regulate in her home town. She is from Appalachia after all. What improved wise strain could there be? It would feel all wrong with over a tip cocktail and hip-hop. It wouldn't feel loyal to a heartbreak that those in a other districts would feel examination their desired ones die. we for one am blissful they didn't go a pumped adult strain route. If we cruise her family, Gale, a people from a Hob...what their emotions would sound like examination her afterwards this soundtrack is great. The initial book is about loss, of ignorance and home. That is essence crushing, and this soundtrack is an heard heartbreak. we expect, and hope, that a subsequent dual soundtracks ratchet adult a energy. You can't have a rebellion though aroused music. we gave it a 4 and not 5 since of: The Decemberists, Miranda Lambert, and Kid Cudi (who we indeed like though a strain was bogus).
