| The Two Towers / Original Soundtrack : 3 of 5 | |

 I got this second soundtrack CD soon after the first one, but it's taken me a while to give it a good listen. I think that's mainly because it's much more somber - of course, there are some serious dramatic passages, but there's many more ethereal, mystical slow sections, which are cool, but not so much fun to listen to in the car. Most of the themes from the first movie are scattered about, but there are several new themes as well - my favorite is the Rohan theme, predominantly heard on The Riders of Rohan (big surprise) and The King of the Golden Hall tracks. There's quite a bit more singing, too - mostly in other languages like Elvish, but also in English, such as Gollum's Song, which is interesting, but I can't get over how much the singer sounds like Bjork! Overall, it's a nice CD that I'm glad to have in my collection, but I'm hoping the third will be a better listen.
