The Darkest Hour of film music!

You see, The Darkest Hour actually confirms why Tyler Bates is already one of the less popular film music composers on the planet. The fact he's getting such cool assignments like this proves that producers and directors are favouring noise above actual artistry. This is a soundtrack that delivers not a single note or moment of actual melody. It's all mood, it's all sound design, it's all gloomy, dark and threatening, alienating so to speak off. Perfect for the effect it tries to create, a nightmare for an experience to hear.

I possibly cannot give you one single track that tries to create something that's called music. Perhaps the only one that comes close is the rather mellow drama discovered in "Say Goodbye", it's like tasting your first sip of water after having strolled 3 days in the desert (it's that welcome). The other ones that come close are the suspenseful pounding action music, creating some kind of a thrill in "Holy Sh*t!" and "Dusted", but sadly those ones are still buried under layers of hideous sound design.
