Other Worldly Beauty 31 May 2005
By Etsuke - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
The songs of Parnoia Agent are visual, bringing images to mind as you hear music that sounds if it comes from another world; some of songs have a haunting quality. Hirasawa's background singing adds to the unique soundtrack. I also loved Susumu Hirasawa's music on the Millenium Actress soundtrack and especially the song "Lotus". It gave me such a inner rush and stirring.

You know you want it. 17 Aug 2005

If you're reading this, you probably want to own the title track for Paranoia Agent so you might as well buy this CD. The title track is, of course, absolutely fantastic -- and about twice as long as what you've heard by watching the show.

That said, I would classify much of the rest of the CD as "retro electronica" or "ambient". Many of the tracks make great backgrounds for the show but aren't that interesting to listen to for the sake of listening to. Others, such as "Hero" and "Confrontational Paranoia" are excellent but sound as if they were made from 1980's era synthesizers -- strings and horns that are obviously electronic in origin. It actually reminds me a lot of old computer game music. This is in contrast to modern electronic/synth groups like VNV Nation where pains have been made to make sure that their horns and strings, while synth in origin, sound authentic.

Anyway, it's all kind of moot. If only track 1 had been on this CD, I would have still bought it and loved it, so there you go. Buy it for track 1 and get a bunch of other music you might like to varying degrees at no extra charge.

Great show, great cd. 27 Aug 2005
By neo_412 - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
If your a fan of the show get this disc. If not it's pretty cool anyway. Get it for the songs you don't here that much on the show, like Condition Boy, Escape, and Grandfatherly Wind. Dream Island Obsessional Park is the shows opening theme and probably the best song, If you like it you'll definitely like Grandfatherly Wind.
