Score Review: Cloverfield (Michael Giacchino)

Ok, so I know what you're thinking. What you're thinking is this:


'Cloverfield?
Cloverfield?! As in Blair Godzilla?
That had music in it?
It even has an original score?!
Was I high or something when I saw it?'


The answer is yes to most of those, possibly even the last one.


And it's probably one of the best monster movie scores in the history of the planet.










It's just a shame that it's only 12 minutes and 17 seconds long.


It goes by the name of 'ROAR!'
It is a single track long.
It was composed by Michael Giacchino solely for the end credits.


And it's the best thing about the film.


This score doesn't just ROAR though..
It's gutsy.
It swaggers.
It kicks ass.


It's just
plain
beautiful.


And it costs 79p on iTunes.


Do it. Now.
