I heard the OST before I even saw the movie (with it being released here in India on the 10th & all...) so I could recognize the awesome tracks as they were being played in the background. Now the OST doesn't release until June 28, but who says I can't do a review for all the songs? I've heard em all, haven't I?
The track listing is as follows:
1. First Class
2. Pain and Anger
3. Would You Date Me?
4. Not That Sort Of Bank
5. Frankenstein’s Monster
6. What Am I Thinking
7. Cerebro
8. Mobilise For Russia
9. Rise Up To Rule
10. Cold War
11. X-Training
12. Rage and Serenity
13. To Beast Or Not To Beast
14. True Colors
15. Let Battle Commence
16. Sub Lift
17. Coup d’État
18. Mutant and Proud
19. X-Men
20. Magneto
From the movie point of view all the tracks are amazing! They start with a strong undercurrent of music signifying the confusion, pain, seething anger- bascially all the emotions a mutant would face trying to fit in a world that fears them :) So though some may not be great to listen to on your ipod, they definitely fit in with the emotion that Vaughn tries to capture in his movie...
Great tracks from the OST you would wanna add to your ipod are: First Class, Not That Sort Of Bank, Frankenstein’s Monster, Cerebro, Mobilise For Russia, Rise Up To Rule, Cold War, X-Training (my personal fave!), True Colors, Let Battle Commence, Sub Lift, Coup d’État & Magneto.
This isn't my entire review of course :P For the ultra-detailed review do head to my blog! The link is below...
