Jablonsky has without doubt surpassed his previous score to the original Transformers movie. His opening theme, Prime, sets the epic nature of the film perfectly, while also showing the reverence and majesty of the autobot leader of the same name. From the very first moment the music begins, one knows that this is going to be a soundtrack that will be played time and time again.
Jablonsky has clearly developed his writing for both orchestra and choir, which is complimented by a diverse use of synthesized sounds. The second track, Einstein's Wrong, uses much more dissonant harmony at times that reflects advancement in his style, showing that Jablonsky can be a daring composer, perhaps even more daring than some of his contemporaries.
The Fallen's Arrival is one of the other highlights of this superb CD that should be pointed out, employing contrasts, rhythmically, melodically and harmonically, that create intense and numerous emotions for the listener. This is a track that will both unsettle and satisfy you at the same time. This should have you on th edge of your seat with suspense, as should this part of the film.
Finally, The Matrix of Leadership is perhaps the most moving track of this album. It's heart wrenching melody will move even the most stubborn. This is without doubt Jablonsky at his best, showing that he is above writing for Sci-Fi and Action films, but is in the truest sense, a composer.
From the aggressive use of rhythms to the lyrical melody writing, this is a score that shines with brilliance. Yes there is some repetition from the first score as Jablonsky occasionally makes reference to it, and while this is without doubt very clever, it can detract from the brilliant originality that is Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. It is a little short and is therefore probably worth downloading rather than purchasing the CD itself, but fans of the franchise will not be disappointed; neither will those who are new to the idea of transforming robots. This is an essential purchase for fans of transformers and of film music.

Format:Audio CD
When Steve Jablonsky created the score for the first Transformers movie he tried to break away from the established music used for the franchise to that date and created something new. The first OST was a good action score, even if it did sound a bit familiar in parts, but added to the movie very well.
However, the score for Revenge Of The Fallen falls short of the bar he set for himself with the first one. While there's no denying that it is a good action movie score, a lot of the music on the tracks is very similar to scores from other movies and sci-fi films.
Jablonksy has worked closely with Hans Zimmer for a lot of music and it shows very clearly, especially in this CD which has a tendency to go off into melodies from 'Gladiator' on five separate tracks. There's also a few nods to Zimmer's work on 'The Dark Knight'.
There also several parts which sound similar to McCreary's current Battlestar Galactica scores and the basis of Track 7: Heed Our Warning, is a straight lift from John Carpenter's classic 'The Thing'. This CD could've been named 'Steve Jablonsky plays great sci-fi themes' and you would be none the wiser.
Saying that, there are a tracks of note. Track 5: The Fallen is very good. The music is mysterious and the use of choral voices in the background lends to the malevolence of The Fallen. Track 8: The Fallen's Arrival is a good piece of action music and more of this probably would've made the score stand out.
Tracks 10, 12 and 14 build on themes from the first Transformers score and weave the heroic Autobot music into the melody very nicely.
All in all, it's not a bad soundtrack but if you haven't got the first OST, I'd recommend that one more than this. Also, with the hefty £18 price tag this CD currently has as this review is published, for the amount of music on here it's not really worth it as most of it you'll have heard before.

Just from the clips available on the MP3 download page, this is going to be the perfect follow-up to the original film score. Too many have dismissed Zimmer, Jablonsky and the rest of the Zimmer clan out-of-hand. They are the most talented and exciting group of film score composers out there, and the 2007 Transformers score was the finest the Jablonsky had yet composed. This score looks a little darker, perhaps a little moodier than the first, but seems to be quite in keeping with the film, and a real foot-tapper. Can't wait to hear the whole thing. Way to go, Jablonsky! :)
