A Zombie Movie Soundtrack

This really sounds like a soundtrack sort of thing. I imagine an overview of zombie-filled landscapes, as a birdview rappidly scrolls over pastures and small villages, while the horns blow and the violin section screams. The percussion after that really kept me on the edge of my seat. While I was blown away by the quality of your production, so far it might aswel be the escape scene of a regular action movie. But then comes a silence before the storm... I think we're safe now, let's hav-WHAT THE FUCK!? ARGHgg! Agaagahurrm...

Man, they got me good. Those were definitely zombies! All in all this song's like a rollercoaster, these zombies can run like hell! You should see to your fellow survivors and leave no one to their fate.

Braaains...

Holy wow, I loooooooove this, amazing ambiant piece. As soon as there's a thumping bass, you basically got me by the BAWLS! Haha! Reminiscent of resident evil 1 (the movie)'s music which I freaking love. I also liked that the song kinda has different sections to it, really cinematic. To me that's a perfect zombie track. I could nitpick but nothing serious enough to take a point from you. Epic climactic ending!

Eeep. Very video gamey. Could totally imagine this as the intro track to a zombie game. The swells coincide with the industrial sounding beat superbly. There isn't much for a main melody throughout, but I think that works because this piece has a great atmosphere to it. Dynamically, it has lots of peaks and troughs, with periods of extreme silence followed by spurratic intensity...the result is jarring and effective. Once the guitar kicks in, it is as if the zombies have broken through the levy, so to speak. There is so much going on in this song, tons of variation and it is all good.

I think the beat should have maybe kept building intensity at the one-minute mark...I was just starting to get into it. The string patch that took over the melody at 1:30 was sorta weak. It lacked the raw edge that is present in just about every other sound in this piece. I'm diggin the quieter part with the introduction of sound effects and such.

A fair amount of zombie influence. One of the most well-rounded songs I have heard in a long time. Bonus points for working on it a until the end. Great job, this song will contend for the top spot.

My Score: 9.5

Just one word

E-P-I-C! :D
2:42 just gave chills, and the last half of the song sounds like a chase scene.
