SoundtrackNet has posted their Pick of the Week - the soundtrack for the movie based on Frank Miller’s 300. There are 30 second sound clips available for each track, although the soundtrack itself will not be released until March 6.

Tyler Bates chose a harsh electronic tone, fused with orchestra and epic choir for the film adaptation of Frank Miller’s graphic novel, 300. This seems like a strange choice, but one has to remember that this film is not trying to be a historical representation of the Spartan’s battle at Thermopylae. Bates’ score uses tones heard in Hans Zimmer’s Black Hawk Down and elements of Bear McCreary’s scores for “Battlestar Galactica”.
