The action themes are some of the best I've ever heard, atmospheric and exciting. In all, this album far exceeded my expectations. 'The Secret Fighting Spirit' is unique in the album in that it's very tribal-sounding, far-removed from the guitars and drum kits in the other pieces. There's a great sense of danger running through it. 'Akatsuki' is a great dark piece with an organ and those deep male vocals providing a rhythmic chorus that captures (hah) the evil organisation very well. Other notable tracks: 'Reversed Situation' is an epic four-minute rock battle track with synth, electric guitar and Shakuhachi (Japanese bamboo flute used prominently throughout Naruto) melodies carrying it through. Looking over it all now, I'm not sure I've heard a single piano in this entire soundtrack. Nice, but not quite as moving as the original series' 'Sadness and Sorrow' track. The Shamisen strums, the strings flow, and there's a soft atmospheric drone in the background.

They're very nice to listen to, but all very similar and sound too much like variations on the same theme: a disappointment considering the huge variety of rousing action themes. There's little to distinguish them unfortunately, and this is perhaps where the score falls down a little. The soulful, sensitive tracks are there too, needless to say to accompany Naruto's inevitable sadder moments. It fits together seamlessly, the only occasional mesh that doesn't quite fit together is when some of the guitars have a little too much echo. There's supporting brass and woodwind, augmented somewhat by synthesisers in certain pieces on the whole there's a very strong sense of rhythm, as the percussion and staccato chorus both play big role. The most prominent instruments in Naruto, as in the original series' soundtrack are definitely the electric guitars, Shamisen (traditional Japanese guitar), Shakuhachi (traditional Japanese bamboo flute), violins, an assortment of drums and a male chorus for shouty Japanese bits. Longer track = yum.ДЄnyway, great as they are, to go on about these two tracks would cheapen the rest of the music, which is at least as good.

This version has a whole 54 seconds more than the Movie orchestration. I haven't decided which one I like more yet. It's a longer version of this heroic, victorious music with a heavier electric guitar presence and more pronounced drum kit usage.

Not content with already making me feel I'd got my money's worth with that single track, it then throws 'Heaven-Shaking Event' out, which, if you've got the Shippuden Movie soundtrack (that ironically enough came out before this one), you'll recognise instantly. There's a real story to this dramatic, action track with a burst of inspiring flute and drum kit in the middle for the real hit. They're well composed and still retain the Naruto feeling, whilst being more mature and standing out incredibly well as individual pieces of music.Д«attle music and ethereal themes of sadness or evil are Shippuden's main course for the day, then, beginning right from the start with 'Shippuden', a rousing battle theme that sends shivers down my spine every time I listen to it. There are some lighter pieces, specifically 'Comrades' and 'Homecoming' that serve as nice interludes for the rest of the tracks, steeped in tense atmosphere. There's little comedy on this CD, and the overall atmosphere is quite heavy.

The bright, perhaps slightly more innocent melodies that accompanied the first series are gone. With the shift in tone of Naruto to Shippuden, it's probably no surprise that the music should reflect that change. My first foray into his music was with the Naruto Shippuden Movie soundtrack that I bought on a whim at the London Expo last October. He's not a name I was familiar with, having not watched Gantz, Ikki Tousen or New Fist of the North Star. The character and battle themes of Naruto were so important in setting up the story and conveying the drama of the series, I was quite surprised Masuda-san didn't follow on with the rest of the staff after doing such a good job.

Prices and shops where you can buy it are at the right column.Having not watched a great deal of Shippuden, I was a little disturbed to initially find that Toshiro Masuda, composer of the original Naruto series, wasn't on board to create the music. Support composers, artists and performers so they can release more music in the future. If you like NARUTO Shippuden Original Soundtrack, we strongly recommend to buy it.
