THE MATRIX RELOADED - Motion Picture Soundtrack

Recurring artists who really made the first soundtrack a killer includes the fragile
Deftones, the superior Rob Zombie, the incandescent Marilyn Manson, the irresistible slamming Rage Against The Machine and the subtly powerful Rob D (now going full blown as Rob Dougan, revisiting and reinterpreting his Clubbed To Death track from the first film). The other sonic vibrators enhancing the incredible pictures of this film come in the shifting shapes of Linkin Park's hybrid metal, Fluke's dark electronic approach, good-guys P.O.D., Ünloco's standard nu-metal style, Team Sleep with a Bladerunner pondering, trance-dance-electronics from Oakenfold and (the seemingly out of place) Dave Matthews Band (at least in a remix of the former mentioned DJ superstar). Disc 2 contains the mood drenched theme-, instrumental- en background music. Where the first film's soundtrack excluded him, here they make up for Don Davis' omission. Davis and Juno Reactor cover most of the ground, separately and as a team. Another Rob Dougan remix is thrown in, but not loosely. You also get previews from The Matrix Reloaded, the incredible Animatrix spin-off and its Final Flight Of The Osiris. A documentary can also be accessed on the game Enter The Matrix by the resurrected 80s games giant Atari. You can't help but be a part of the phenomenon and garner all of these Matrix elements into your collection for frequent reference.
