The two finale tracks, titled "I Claim Your Sun" and "I Rise, You Fall", are so utterly epic that they lend a kind of credence to the final battle it wouldn't normally have." Infinite White " and its sister track, " Tomb of the Primes " carry melancholy and awe in showing how amazing the Tomb of the Primes and the Matrix in its depths are.It shouldn't work, but it does, and the end result is both awesome and a prime example of Hell Is That Noise (and potential Nightmare Fuel). " The Fallen ", the Leitmotif for the eponymous character, stands out for being an extremely creepy and alien combination of measured synthesizer beats and human voices." Einstein's Wrong ", the main theme for the Seekers manages to carry an air of tension and never seems to go loud and bombastic, fitting for the sneaky status of those Decepticons.What happens when this music is playing is both one of the best moments in the movie AND a BIG Moment of Awesome for Optimus Prime. This theme also manages to sample the theme of the film, "New Divide", to great effect. " NEST " is the best rock out to Lock-and-Load Montage song since Halo's "Blow Me Away".Now bring it to the same key as the original. Linkin Park's cover of the original 1984 theme song.Some of the unreleased tracks are pretty epic as well: " Bogey Approach " and " Are You Ladiesman217? " stand out. The completely awesome four-part finale, encompassing " You're a Soldier Now ", " Sam on the Roof ", " Optimus Vs Megatron " and the aforementioned " No Sacrifice, No Victory ".Another excellent two parter: " Sector 7/Bumblebee Captured ", both a pulse pounding chase piece and a massive Tear Jerker.The two-part " Decepticons/ Allspark " theme carries tension and awe in describing the threat of the Decepticons and how vital and powerful the Allspark is.Scorponok's theme boasts a great beat showcasing not just Scorponok's strength but also the American army's valor in trying to fight him.No mention of Transformers music would be complete without "Arrival to Earth", or any of its various reprises." Megatron Must be Stopped " is the ultimate battle BGM with more frantic synths and hints of brash heavy metal by Vince DeCola, as Optimus Prime and Megatron duke it out to the death one more time.The song's climaxing with a metal scream as Megatron blows Ironhide away is particularly awesome. " NRG's Instruments of Destruction gives the Decepticons some truly badass music to mow down Autobots to.The theme for the battle of Autobot City " is pretty good seving in its role as classically 80s action-drama BGM.The Unicron Medley is perhaps the polar opposite of the Transformers theme, being slow, sinister and mysterious in contrast to the upbeat, to the point nature of the main theme.Is there anyway of packing in any more awesomeness into 2 minutes!?!" Nothing's Gonna STAND IN OUR WAY! is like something right out of a Metal album cover: "Killer metal sharks hacked to death with a band saw, transforming robot turns into a sports car, fights a giant octopus with lasers and all played out to the backing of some classic 80's hair metal.And then there's the alternate Vince DiCola version of the theme, which is among Barney Stinson's favorite music picks in the Bro Code! Here's the HAIRMETAL version of the Transformers theme song, with lyrics more relevant to the movie.The soundtrack to the 1986 animated movie is so 80s it hurts.Before we go into the individual entries, we start with the song that was so gloriously awesome that it has become the theme song for the entire franchise: "The Touch" by Stan Bush.
