Review - Product Description
The soundtrack to the second season of the popular spy show, starring Jennifer Garner, with music from Michael Giacchino ('Secret Weapons Over Normandy').
Review - Amazon.com
Fueled largely by the endlessly inventive original music chronicled in the first anthology from the hit TV series Alias, young composer Michael Giacchino's rising star quickly led to big screen success via his first major feature, Pixar's computer animated superhero spoof The Incredibles. The composer's rich eclecticism -- one that spans a thumping, contemporary techno club-savvy and brassy winks at the 60's spy-jazz canon in just its opening few cuts -- is still one of the major delights on this collection of cues from Alias' second season. But its second half largely becomes a more dramatically focused, if no less creatively restless showcase for Giacchino's orchestral writing, the scale of which impressively belies its small-screen origins. Its rare to hear TV music that evokes everything from the brooding classicism of Samuel Barber and Bernard Herrmann to more contemporary scoring masters like Goldsmith and Barry -- with a forceful nod to mixmeister Paul Oakenfold in the bargain -- but it's all here on this compelling showcase for one of film music's most promising new stars. --Jerry McCulley

- Another Excellent Follow-up to Alias' Season 1 Soundtrack

This is more wonderful music from soundtrack composer Michael Giacchino. There is a greater number of slower-paced, melancholy tracks than on the first season soundtrack, but it's a great progression nevertheless. The high-speed action techno tracks remain exciting as usual, while the slower ones are quite emotive. Unfortunately, like with the previous soundtrack, the music from the show's closing credits is not included (though the same melody is peppered throughout both CDs). Here's hoping for future soundtrack releases for Seasons 3 and 4!

- Not very exciting, I must say.

As a huge Alias fan, I was ecstatic when I got this soundtrack. Sadly, the majority of it consisted of slow, sad songs that were honestly pretty boring. I was looking forward to more loud and exciting songs, but there's probably only about 4 or 5 of those on here. If you like all the musics on Alias though, I'd say go for it!

- Giachinno does it again

Was thoroughly satisfied with this release of early Giachinno at his finest. Sure, there's a lot more sombre cues (as opposed to the up-beat dance sequences prevalent in Alias season 1), but Season 2 is a lot more serious and sombre than Season 1 - and the music fits perfectly.

Am annoyed the Alias Seasons 3-5 soundtracks have not seen commercial forms yet. Season 2 was special, as it was the last season to really pump out the dance/techno scores during the action scenes. By Season 4, Giachinno's score has become 100% orchestral.
