ToB music is really good IMHO, and it's not an accident.
Maybe some of you happen to possess the "Conan the Barbarian" original
SoundTrack, composed by Basil Poledouris...
(Wonderful movie, the first of the serie, and INCREDIBLE soundtrack..
Could Littiz do without it?!?!?
Well, the similarities are impressive.
Sounds, atmospheres, instruments...
I'm almost sure they used this cd as "guide", just listen to
the introductive sequence: rythm, cadence, the pounding of the
bass drums...
And I had the "already heard" feeling even elsewhere.
After defeating Yaga-Shura, IIRC, and one of the battle-themes...
But mostly, the choice of sounds and arrangements is what makes me sure.
(though without a real analysis or comparison)
What do you think about it?
(I'm not critic, I like it!!! The 80s, days of the best
heavy metal and cult-movies....)
