TF5 movie score now available online

It was over 2 hours (almost as long as the movie), but I didn't think it was as good as his previous Transformers Movie Scores. A lot of his tracks don't seem to carry momentum... they seem to stop and start a lot. Maybe it had to be composed that way to fit with the short sharp bursts of action scenes that Michael Bay gave him to work with (before editing it to the point of frustrating Jablonsky.

The one tune I liked was the one they used on the trailers, but the version on this CD seemed to be shorter and less intense. Again, due to stopping and starting I think.
Or maybe I wasn't paying enough attention, as I had it play while working on the computer, and after it dragged on for a while, I may have just tuned out too much.

It's nice to have it in the collection... it's just a shame that they never released the DOTM score on CD, so it remains an incomplete collection.

I didn't buy it but have listened on Spotify a few times; I like the new 'theme' introduced but agree it's got less flow than previous ones.

TF4 soundtrack + the EP are my favourites by far, though I find they all have some really standout tracks.

I never even came across the TF4 soundtrack - I'd assumed they'd never made a CD of it

It was also a limited edition release at Lalaland like this fifth movie CD.

The TF4 soundtrack was limited in release to something stupid like 15000 copies worldwide. It wasn't Steve's restriction, it was Paramount.
I got the TF4 soundtrack on iTunes as soon as it came out thankfully as it sold out quickly and despite numerous pleas by Steve and customers alike they wouldn't re-issue or open it up again... to the point that even when I moved computer and went to re-download my iTunes library it wouldn't let me download the TF4 soundtrack even though I had paid for it previously. Thankfully my hubs is an ex sys admin and makes us do loads of backups so I was able to restore it from a backup instead.

I want to get the TF5 soundtrack... did anyone take up that offer to get it shipped to Oz?

I sure did, I haven't listened to it in detail yet. I think it's great that he's done such a detailed release.
