I love the new Battlestar Galactica and I like soundtracks, so it was a no brainer for me to pick up the new soundtrack for season 2.

The composer, Bear McCreary, really outdoes himself and easily tops the season 1 CD.

While I was watching season 2 on TV, I heard two songs that I had to have. After listening to the samples of the soundtrack on Bear’s website and not hearing the two songs I started to worry that they weren’t going to be included. That’s one of my pet peeves with soundtracks; when a song is included in the movie or show but is not on the soundtrack.

I turns out that I had nothing to fear. The two songs (Pegasus (from Pegasus) and Something Dark is Coming (from Lay Down Your Burdens Part One)) are indeed on the soundtrack.

I definitely recommend this to anyone that is a Battlestar fan or a fan of soundtrack music.
