Several polls weve conducted across the Internet have confirmed that a majority of Silent Hill fans prefer this
soundtrack to its predecessor. The answer lies simply in the fact that this score was more musical in nature, whereas the
first was more frightening noises and not as easy to just pop in the cd player and listen to. (Although I have, many times!)
Akira Yamaoka composed a stirring combination
of tracks that sooth with the sound of a piano and strings, then make our heart beat fast with strange creeks and powerful
Kodo drums. Enjoy reliving your adventures in the fog with such tracks
as "Theme of Laura", which was used in the opening CG sequence. Feel James longing for Mary with "Truth" or relax in Pete's
Bowl-o-Rama with "Alone In the Town." Heart-pounding tracks such as "The Darkness That Lurks in Our Mind" will bring back
tense moments of blasting zombie nurses in Brookhaven Hospital.
