The composition, soundscape and mood is still very Hot Topic.

The music that plays in the Comedian section is a total Blade Runner Vangelis ripoff.

Still better than techno metal.

If you want to hear a better sampling of the movie’s soundtrack, go to the newly updated website that features Tyler Bates soundtrack on each character bio (particularly The Comedian)

I would say it’s less Crystal Method and more like the soundtrack to “Blade Runner” or “Heat”

I’m not sure if this is the real thing though, as I think I remember Synder saying although The Smashing Pumpkins track is on the trailers, it’s not in the movie (so why would it be on the soundtrack?). And, wasn’t some crappy modern band supposed to cover Desolation Row specifically for this? Thought I read something about that too.
