Editorial Reviews
Product Description
This seventh full-length outing immediately captures the band in a more austere mood. The flashy guitar leads that have become synonymous with their sound have been all but entirely cast aside, in favor of a more subtle keyboard-led approach. Indeed, the more sombre atmosphere of Soundtrack to Your Escape comes especially to the fore on the almost gothic "Dead Alone" and "Touch of Red" -- tracks that sport driving keyboard melodies and clean-sung harmonic choruses that hint at a very strong '80s pop influence. Nuclear Blast. 2005.

Experimental, underated, different........2006-12-04

First off let me say just listen to this album yourself from a friend or through buying it or w/e before making an opinion about it. This album along with Reroute to Remain took a lot of trash from old school In Flames fans who felt that In Flames sold out with this album. While I cannot deny the elements of sell out within their newer music neither can I deny the blant fact that they were looking to make something new not Jester Race 2 or Clayman 2 and also they went somewhat experimental. This album is most certainly not like their older work yes melody is still here for sure but the instrumentals have taken a backseat I would say or sort of share the spotlight with Anders vocals. The album has some killer tracks and then lacks in others. Listen for yourself one things for certain its a change from their older work but it is still deff good music however deff not something I listen to a whole lot. But still good the polished production is at times very very lovely and at other times just annoying. I personally liked the album and thought it was good. Its just not a mind blowing classical like their earlier releases. Lets leave it at this, In Flames will be remembered for Jester Race, Whoracle and not this album but that doesnt mean this isnt still good music.

A few faults makes this a really annoying album.......2006-11-13

Even though I gave this a 4/5, there are a few things that overall make this album weak. One, on this album almost every song sounds the same. For example, Borders & Shading and Superhero of the Computer Rage both are structured in this order: Verse, Prechorus, Verse, Prechorus, Chorus, Verse, Prechorus, Chorus, Bridge, Prechorus, Chorus with a pitch raised to a C#. The guitars have an artificially produced sound to them; nothing like the previous albums Reroute to Remain and Clayman and the most recent Come Clarity in which the production was excellent. Also, almost all the songs are B flat based. In other words, the songs sound the same. On the good side, there are really catchy songs and still some specks of Melodic Death Metal, but there is also some techno and Jonathan Davis. I would reccommend this album to anybody who likes their most recent albums, but you aren't that likely to like it. How bout "I'd reccomend this to anybody who likes nu metal because this is 5 times as better as any nu metal out." I would because this album is not nu metal (along with RTR). Nu metal is hip hop influenced and this is still melodic death metal influenced. This is the final thing I will address. So I leave you to do whatever you want; or click no under is this review helpful. Because I know that half the people who will read this will think this album sucks. Peace.

3.5 NOT AT THEIR BEST..........2006-10-12

Ok, ok...I've been following In Flames since their very very (VERY!) first efforts. I came across "Lunar Strain" back in 1994 and since then I couldn't miss any of their releases 'till "Clayman". Haven't listened to "Reroute..." yet...but...the hell, this is not In Flames! They were meant to play something different! Let me explain better...if I'll be able to (lol)!!! Even if I do love a certain kind/genre of Metal I do not believe in clichè, I understand and agree in testing something new, as I play in a band I must admit it's quite easy to get bored playing every day the same stuff! Nevertheless, this album sounds to me a little...plain. I do not want to be completely negative 'coz on the whole I'd put "Soundtrack" in my personal archive of good music. "Friend", "Like You Better Dead" and "In Search For I" are very nice songs, anyway I cannot name a real high tune :-(
If you already are into In Flames you should know what to do...
If you're looking for a new band to listen to I'd suggest to buy "Whoracle" or "Jester Race" (...death metal, more into classic metal stuff) or "Come Clarity" if you need another masterpiece of music (as the ones named before)with a touch of modern metal vein in add. CIAO

An Elite Album.......2006-08-12

If you are new to In Flames, please do not pay any attention whatsoever to the negative reviews. This is an amazing album, an effort equalled only by Reroute To Remain and The Jester Race.
Every song presented here is very strong, without a single weak point. In Flames continue to use their ability to write albums songs that do not all sound the same, and it keeps the disc worth many repeat listens. After the somewhat bland Clayman, the band curved the sound in a darker, more intricate direction, as displayed on RTR and STYE. Electronics are more apparent here, as well as chunkier, less solo-oriented riffs. Another point is brought herein - the solos here are played slower, simpler, and with far more taste and emotion as on Clayman, Colony, etc. The songs are very memorable, each containing many moments of chilling soundscapes.
This is quite likely In Flames's best album. It is a shame that they decided to curve back toward previous days with Come Clarity.
If you like this, you will also find much joy in Reroute To Remain and The Jester Race.

Not that bad..........2006-07-27

But its not great either. In Flames have long been known as one of the originators of the famous Gothenburg melodic death metal genre, along with Dark Tranquillity and At the Gates. In Flames have a very respectable catalog spanning many years. While most fans dismiss this album as absolute garbage, this release is not really that bad. Sure, we do not have twin guitar dueling solos and the riffs and melodies that made Whoracle and the Jester Race classics, but we do have interesting music.

Anders Fridén and Co. start things out with the song F(r)iend. The riffs are great here, but it does remind the listener of a more modern style song then the swedish melo-metal. The riffing is fast and Anders growls are awesome. 'The Quiet Place' has catchy synth and has some groove present in it. The chorus sounds like something one might hear on a hard-rock radio station. 'Touch of Red' is another catchy song that has a trendy chorus. My personal favorite song on the album is 'My Sweet Shadow.' The melody is wonderful and In Flames closed with this song when I saw them live this past January, in early 2006.

In Flames can still write great music (if you don't believe me, pick up their newest release Come Clarity) and Anders vocals are not that bad. Personally, I like his vocals better here then on Come Clarity. He is utilizing his singing voice, but I must say his vocals sound nothing like his vocals portrayed on Whoracle or The Jester Race. In Flames were very experimental with this release and it probably did not work out the way they wanted it to. But this album is certainly not horrible. Some songs are very enjoyable and hearing them live is just as fun as hearing the songs 'Jotun' or 'Moonshield' live. Newcomers, please do not start here, start early and make your way forward. In Flames are a respectable band. While this may not be at the top of my list, it is definately not a horrible album. In Flames still do a great job playing live concerts.

Album Description

In 2002 Philip Glass composed the soundtrack score to the Stephen Daldry film "The Hours". The film went on to receive 9 Acadamy Awards nominations, including one for `best score'.

At the beginning of the film, Daldry depicts the timelessness of small daily events, how the real elements of life are patterns that repeat across time. The movie opens with three women from three different eras intercut, all doing similar things. There's Virginia Woolf (Nicole Kidman) in 1923, a troubled young mother (Julianne Moore) in 1951 and a woman (Meryl Streep) in 2001 making preparations for a party later that evening. In one location flowers are bought, in another displayed, in another discarded. Philip Glass' score intensely underlines the images with a sense of strangeness and sympathy.

Michael Riesman, Mr. Glass' longtime musical director and producer of the film score recordings, created solo piano adaptations of the original score and has been performing them in concert.

Orange Mountain Music is very happy to release a CD of studio recordings of this beautiful and emotional work performed by the brilliant pianist and intimate interperter of Philip Glass' work, Michael Riesman.

Philip Glass' Musical Score for 'The Hours' Distilled.......2007-03-28

Returning to view the masterfully created cinematic production of Michael Cunningham's THE HOURS always leaves the reminder that much of the atmosphere that made the film work so well on every level was the musical score composed by Philip Glass. The soundtrack recording from the film remains for this listener a constant companion and now there is yet another extension of the eloquence of Glass' achievement.

Glass' longtime musical colleague is Michael Riesman, a gifted pianist as well as a composer who had the fine thought of distilling Glass' already minimalist score for piano solo. And in this recording Riesman performs his composer-sanctioned transcriptions with not only impeccable musical skill but also with the knowledge of both the Cunningham novel and the Virginia Woolf novel 'Mrs. Dalloway' on which it was based. The result is far more richly varied series of vignettes than most would have thought possible.

For those who are devotees of Philip Glass' compositions, from the very large symphonies and operas to the chamber ensemble and solo instrumental works, this series of piano transcriptions will prove rewarding. Reisman makes Glass' ideas crystalline, allowing us to hear the very subtle differences in the music he created for each character and each emotion.

For those less familiar with Philip Glass' music but very familiar with the film 'The Hours', this recording will provide an hour of nostalgia and clean swept elegance that can be heard at any moment (any hour!) of the day. Highly Recommended. Grady Harp, March 07

Great music.......2007-02-03

This recording captures the essence of Glass minimal composition, and has the same feeling and emotion that his other solo piano recordings contain.
This is also a good recording since there is only two songs that are borrowed from other recordings, namely Floe and Metamorphosis #3. Floe is a beautiful song on solo piano, and actually sounds better without the flute in my opinion.

A fine addition to your Glass library........2006-08-21

Let's get this part out of the way: Ghastly movie, beautiful music. One of Philip Glass's richest scores transcribed for piano and ready to be re-experienced on a different, core level. Glass has always been an acquired taste. If you enjoy his work, this is worth adding to the collection.

Beautiful piano.......2005-09-21

I loved this soundtrack when I first heard it on the film and to hear it with solo piano--in it's most basic true form--is so fantastic. It has even more emotion simplified.

Exquisite . . . .......2005-08-16

masterpiece from Philip Glass, it reflects all movie emotion since movie beginning until the end. You can go from calm and quiet short periods to an inevitable rush. A barely bearable anxiety.

F.A.N.T.A.S.T.I.C.!.......2006-02-02

I've got the original music (including v2 and v3), the books (the best is Heitland's The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Book; still in print);
the 22 VHS tapes issued in the early 1990's (a haphazard collection issued in no particular order of episodes that boasted famous guest stars). Can I please get the whole series on DVD? I have not seen Mother Fear toying with Illya (The Children's Day Affair) in over 40 years.

At LAST the complete series ORIGINAL soundtrack, the wait is over!.......2005-07-12

Many of us have always thought The Man From UNCLE had the best music for a TV series ever, and this three double CD release confirms this. Wow! I'd be just happy with one CD, but having SIX (three double CDs packages) is absolutely out of this world, I mean, a lifetime wait come true.

Indeed, this is an unbelievable collection of three double CDs packages with the complete series soundtrack, and I mean the complete music, not a tune is missing.

And this is the ORIGINAL Man From Uncle music. Let me stress the point: this is the four years ORIGINAL soundtrack with the original recordings as they were heard throughout the series, not a no-name orchestra doing personal versions of the stuff. The audio transfer is very, very good, the music from late episodes is even in stereo.

Each individual CD carries over 70 minutes of music. All in all there you have the four TV seasons main titles and all, absolutely all of TMFU unforgetable music.

This is not a chronological release, meaning, all CDs have a mix of music from all four TV seasons. Volume 1 is heavier on early TV seasons stuff, fans of Jerry Goldsmith will love it. Those of us who prefer what Gerald Fried and later Richard Shores did with TMFU music, then volume 2 is mandatory. If you are a fan, you can't miss any of these six CDs. However if buying all three double packages is too much for you, you must go with Volume 2, no questions asked. Volume three is the weakest of them as it brings "suites" and a whole CD with "The Girl From Uncle" soundtrack, but you have a bonus "Open Channel D" beeper.

Each package is gorgeous, each with a glossy color booklet with extensive liner notes with details on how each tune was written to a specific TV series episode and how it was used onwards. You have bios on the composers, on how the recordings were made, even an overview on how many instruments were available in each of the years the music was recorded.

So, throw away your Hugo Montenegro Man From Uncle CD, this is the REAL thing.
