What is your opinion of the Halo: Combat Evolved soundtrack? How does it rank against the music of other Halo games?

Also, I invite you to post your favorite pieces from the Combat Evolved OST. It is my firm belief that CE's soundtrack has some of the most beautiful scores of video game.

Covenant dance ftw. No other Halo track has stimulated me more.

I dislike how it no longer occurs at badass battles (which are nearly non-existent unless you go through menial labor to bring AI there).

Under Cover of Night is absolutely epic too, in an entirely different way.

the first time we hear that song is on Assault On The Control Room when you step out into the bridge with sleeping grunts and a banshee shoots down a pelican, correct?

It's been a long time since I listened to that. I only play Halo with sound when there's no music playing. The atmosphere comes first (especially in Anniversary. What have 343 done to Rock Anthem for Saving the World?!).

I thought that was On The Pale Horse. I'm referring to the end of the level where you fight the Zealot and his Grunts.

Soon to be breaking news:


US Coast Guard prepares for massive rescue mission after Iranian fleet sinks off shore. Reports say a small thunderstorm caused most of the ships to simply...fall apart.

Oh, boy.

"Rock Anthem for Saving the World" is the only one to make it onto my iTunes. When Matt Foley isn't available, it motivates me.

True, but when you hit Final Run, Under Cover of Night completely sets the atmosphere. You reach the surface, it's dark out, snow is falling, and you get this soft background that slowly escalates as you reach larger battles.
