REVIEW

Richiro Manabe is back for another try at scoring a Godzilla movie. The music here isn't bad to listen to but sounds very dated with a definite early 70's type sound. A lot of the tracks have a funky, early disco feel to them. A very few of the tracks will bring back memories of Godzilla. Most of the tracks on this CD are very forgettable. The CD does contain some male vocal versions of the Jet Jaguar song if you like it.

Overall not a bad listening experience but not a good one either. This is kind of middle of the road as far as these scores go. Most of this music probably works much better in the film than as just music to listen to. Again, most of this stuff sounds very dated.
