On topic; what type of music do you think the Dark Tower films should have? I am hoping for a powerful orchestral score.

reply

This is an OT thread. If you don't want to play by the rules GTFO.

Jk.

Of course it should be an orchestral score.

reply

True. That said, I would love to hear Hawkwind - Golden Void blasting as Roland ascends the tower and re-enters the desert as the singer starts singing: "warrior on the edge of time"!

reply

It'll be Court of the Crimson King.

There is a relatively new genre(about twenty years, young enough where a name for the genre is only about 10 years old)--"alt-country" a fusion of country and punk or metal that I've developed an interest in. The style gets a lot of play on TV shows like Sons of Anarchy (2008)
