Kind of has a Linkin Park feel to it... at least it's a spin on the classic theme, and not some thing COMPLETELY new.

Posted by Kingshand on June 7th, 2007 @ 2:52pm CDT

meh; I had hoped it'd have an orchestrated score and not a lump of crappy bands with maybe one or two good songs on the whole album.

Not my first choice, but I've heard worse.....

Re: Movie Theme Online Now! Along With Possible Track Listings to the Soundtrack! (153401)
Posted by Flashback77 on June 7th, 2007 @ 2:53pm CDT

Absolutely horrible. This new theme sounds like Linkin Park covering Cybertron's intro. I expected a crappy soundtrack, maybe the score will be worth listening to.

Posted by skeletal13 on June 7th, 2007 @ 2:55pm CDT

Linkin Park: the attempted "metal" Backstreet Boys. Do people still listen to these guys? Like the rest of the track listing... what a ton of crap: whiny emo, some has-been thug rock/nu metal, and some has-been 90s artists. Pretty much everyone on there is making their last grasp before they get booted off the airwaves. I'm not surprised, though, since the "Armageddon" soundtrack was pretty much the same thing. At least we don't have a whiny geriatric Aerosmith ballad this time.

this theme was also posted on sectorseven.org, on the most recent email, use the password deceptibot.

Now that I've listened to the "theme" I have to disagree with Trailbreaker...

I've not heard worse and I don't think it possibly could be.

That was terrible. Terrible, in fact, doesn't even describe it.

Posted by brbolin on June 7th, 2007 @ 3:00pm CDT

I'd say, the only time we MIGHT hear this "theme" is during the end credits. Once and done.
It's not bad...not the greatest, but not bad. Like many, I was hoping for more of an "orchestral" take on it, but this will do. Could've been a lot better, could've been a LOT worse.
The score soundtrack, I feel, will be awesome, though.

Re: Movie Theme Online Now! Along With Possible Track Listings to the Soundtrack! (153425)
Posted by Maximal Prime on June 7th, 2007 @ 3:04pm CDT

That new theme song is just...crap. I'm sorry, personal opinion, but It's 21 years later and Lion's original theme song just destroys this version anyday.

On a side note though, what I have heard of the orchestrated score rocks.

Re: Movie Theme Online Now! Along With Possible Track Listings to the Soundtrack! (153427)
Posted by First-Aid on June 7th, 2007 @ 3:05pm CDT

I have a feeling this is going to be one of those "Songs from and Inspired by" sountracks to be later followed with the orchestral soundtrack release later. It's not a bad take...not the best, but not bad. Definitely a "meh".

I think you're right. Note how it doesn't list Jazz in the namecall XD

That was loving terrible. Okay, we're talking about a remake of the theme song to a kids show fromt he Eighties and, even in that context, it was an embarrassment to listen to. I don't know who this Mutemath is, but I now officially hate them. They sound like a very cheap knock-off of Linkin Park. They should have gotten some actual musicians to compose the new theme, not the poor imitation of a passing fad band.

EDIT: Wow, I didn't read anyone else's take before including my own...

No we have the Goo Goo Dolls for that.

It was funny because I was considering asking if Mutemath, Linkin Park, or their entire genre of music will be remembered 20 years from now? No? Fad! Kids today are listening to Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath and Rush more than most of the new bands out there. That has got to tell the industry something. Unfortunately, the industry generally doesn't answer to reason.

I am not sure... I am not into rap. Mehish. I would prefer an orchestrated score. Like what is in the trailers. That does it for me. This...doesn't really appeal.

I thought Stan Bush was writing something for the movie. For a Transformers movie, it seems wrong without him.

Posted by decepticonjon on June 7th, 2007 @ 3:16pm CDT

maybe i was just under the impression that this movie was supposed to be a new take, not a rehash. now with the g1 movie toy repaints, and this "tune" (as the kids would call it), i'm wondering exactly what the strategy is with this thing.
i'm not dissapointed to utter desolation, but christ, if you're going to reinvent something, don't shit a pink turd on my plate and expect me to be happy about it.

Posted by Head Shot on June 7th, 2007 @ 3:21pm CDT

Its not too bad, i like the music itself, but the vocals kinda ruin it.

So the guitar, and the synthesized parts I'm good with, but seriously... the singing parts and the lyrics themselves are just flat out bad.

oh and at the very begining, im talking about the first few seconds (like 4 or 5 seconds) , it reminded me of the objection theme from the original phoenix wright, but techno.

Damn, looks like Stan Bush didn't make the cut for the album. Looks like I will just pick up the re-release of the TF Movie soundtrack with Stan Bush on it.

Mariah Carey got dropped from her label for poor performance after selling more in the late Nineties, and that was Mariah Carey. Her thing was flash-in-the-pan pop.

Someone in the SA forums said it best: "Somehow even Justin loving Timberlake is a creatively and artistically respected musician today, but Linkin Park is still Linkin Park."

Posted by Raphael Prime on June 7th, 2007 @ 3:37pm CDT

I dont know about the rest of the tunes, but since this soundtrack is being put out in part by Warner Bros. records, im 90% sure the Disturbed is right, since their working on a new album, which will also be the only reason(as of now) that i'll get this cd.

Re: Movie Theme Online Now! Along With Possible Track Listings to the Soundtrack! (153511)
Posted by Megatron Wolf on June 7th, 2007 @ 3:39pm CDT

I think ill pass on this. There are only two bands that i some what like on there. But at least we know whos doing the theme now. Some no name band no ones ever heard of. Oh well just means more money to buy the figures with.

Re: Movie Theme Online Now! Along With Possible Track Listings to the Soundtrack! (153515)
Posted by jonusjaxon on June 7th, 2007 @ 3:40pm CDT

The theme made me throw up a little. It's so freakin' awful. I hope it's not what they use in the movie. I just hope they put all the pop, metal and emo songs at the end credits so I don't have to hear them during the movie.

Re: Movie Theme Online Now! Along With Possible Track Listings to the Soundtrack! (153527)
Posted by Fireblast on June 7th, 2007 @ 3:48pm CDT

Hmm it's alright. They just choose the wrong bands in some cases. A song that would fit the movie perfect id "Bombshell" by Powerman 5000. I could see that playing when Blackout destroys that military base. However Linkin Park "What I've Done" is one of the most downloaded songs right now. My friend likes Disturbed and they are pretty good but not my favorite.

Posted by another tf fan on June 7th, 2007 @ 3:49pm CDT

The teme blows balls. Plain and Simple. Linkin Park would be a great bandifit wasn't for the wussie who raps and Mutemath is a lousy version of linkin park with an even worse wussie rapper.

Contrast this theme with the one from Transformers: Cybertron, which had a painful rap, but in the end the song was energetic and built to something, this song goes nowhere and ends just as abrubtly as it began.

yep, this theme blows balls and I really hope to hear the g1 theme worked into the orchestral score at some poit. not overworked, just lightly touched on, thats when the music will really make me smile.

Posted by frogbat on June 7th, 2007 @ 4:05pm CDT

typical modern day shite - i could live with the music and "the transformers more than meets the eye" bits. The lyric are abysmal though. I think heavy metal with orchestration best suits the transformers - something in the vein of led zep. Maybe i'm turning into an old fogie but i can't stand all the rap and shouty metal rap stuff. 0 talent needed for that.

They could've even done a progressive dance instrumentation number and it would've turned out better. Take the three Mission Impossible movie themes. The 1st had 0.5 of u2 rework the iconic theme tune in drum and bass the other 2 can fred knockwurst and kanye west. rapping and sampling... which of the three would you rather listen to?

Posted by Ericus Prime on June 7th, 2007 @ 4:09pm CDT

Yeah, It sounds like Cybertron there, but something is better than nothing. There's one big problem I have with this new theme, it's missing this line: "Autobots wage their battle to destroy the evil forces of the Decepticons!" It's part of the friggin theme, so it should be included, morons!

Yeah I was concerned that this would be a pop or *shudder* hip hop soundtrack, glad to see it's at least partly metal. Linkin Park is really just a sad attempt at ripping off korn, who themselves are a sad attempt at ripping off faith no more.

Terrible, just God awful, bad, sucks, and every other negative adjective out there! I gave the theme a "C-" in another thread last night, but after listening to it again today and reading this "track list", I just want to vomit! There's nothing saving this album. I'd like a score CD and to hear the song Stan Bush submitted, even if it didn't make the cut. For now, I can honestly say that I get to save some money for once!

hah, thanks for bringing up faith no more, first cassette i ever bought was the real thing.

yea, i was embaressed that the song played outloud. anyone that i asked i just diverted the subject and showed them the op vs bonecrusher clip.
heyyyy.. slight of hand.
i think the only way to enjoy that song is the sound your trash can makes when it get's emptied.

Y'know... I actually kinda like it. I don't care for the name rollcall at around 0:58, though, but otherwise it's great.

Maybe we will get an orchestral score along the lines of the one we heard in the Armada PS2 game? That would rock.

To much head banging shit. I like the Goo Goo Dolls and the theme is not bad. BUt the need to get rid of the rap crap and the head banging crap. Put in CLASSIC ROCK AND 80'S MUSCIC. FOR EXAMPLE GENESIS-LAND OF CONFUSION AND LED ZEPPLIN, QUEEN bands like that need to be in it.
