Its a kick to the head for any lover of rock music and well put together scores for the movies.īut even though the album is filled with heavy guitar and ear-drum bursting percussion, Djawadi knows when a soft touch is needed and he gives that to the film in the form of a cue called, \"Extra Dry, Extra Olives\". I wish I could say more about \"Merchant of Death\" but the whole album just makes me excited every time I listen to it. With \"Merchant of Death\" we are shown what the album will be filled with, rocking drums that will have you air drumming in no time, and a lot of guitar that will have you pretending you have one foot on an imaginary monitor and are welling out a heavy jam.ĭjawadi puts out track after track of a rocking score, this is the soundtrack where you wish your stereo went to 11. There are three tracks that I want to point out how good this album is, the first is \"Merchant of Death\". He has made a complete turn around in his film career and I\'m happy to say that he\'s done a great job of it, but back to the music.įor a film about a man in a metal suit, one would only expect the score to be a romp of power, and adrenaline, and if it\'s anything less than that, I must have got the wrong disc.

has done some of his best work, he plays Stark well, and makes it believable. I remember seeing the trailers and hearing AC/DC thinking, \"Oh man this is going to be awesome!\" And I was right, Robert Downey Jr. I hope for the sake of the franchise and the coming sequels that Djawadi will be tapped again to provide music because this score is without even the slightest doubt worth every penny. Let me start off by saying, Ramin Djawadi\'s score for Iron Man makes me grateful for surround sound, because if you don\'t have one, you are missing out on some rockin\', rollin\' turbo charged good times.
