MemberBaragonJan-13-2022 1:04 PMOk, ive run out of good kaiju movie OSTs to listen to, what are some soundtracks(old AND new) that often get looked over in the fandom?
Before I dive into this, define, "run out"? What have you listened to/exhausted?
Ive listened to all of Godzilla 2014, KoTM, and Gvk(obviously), some Skull island as well. ive also listened to Varan, rodan, and GMK. I just dont feel like searching randomly for more.
Oh and before anyone says it, yes, ive listened to some of Godzilla 2016.
I'd recommend listening to The Mysterians. It's has one of Ifukube's best main themes and he never repurposed it for the Godzilla series.
I also definitely recommend Kan Sawada's Godzilla Singular Point soundtrack. It was excellent.
But also, why not enjoy the soundtracks from some of your favorites? While not always the case I feel that usually works in tandem.
Mysterians and....singular point? i forgot that came out.
I still enjoy listening to the ones in my playlist, but after about 9 months a person gets a little burnt out.
Honestly, I feel as though music is the one fairly consistent thing in the Godzilla series that's of high quality. It's much easier to single out the weaker scores as the vast majority are excellent.
Some fans may not like me saying this, but I always thought the 1998 film had a really good soundtrack. It was one of the few genuinely good things in the movie.
SasquaDash,
As I said, music is the one fairly consistent thing in the Godzilla series that's of high quality. David Arnold needs to be hired for more work these days. I certainly miss him doing Bond flicks.
