Carter is being released too. At least in the case of SHIELD, I'm hoping for a multi-disc set, just like Bear always likes.

Specifically in the case of TWD, Bear has made it very, very clear over the past few years through the numerous social media requests he has gotten that he has tried to release an album and something is standing in the way (very likely AMC preventing him from doing so). Meanwhile AMC has been releasing these stupid pop music albums for TWD.

AMC isn't releasing the albums. The albums are from Republic Records (a division of Universal Music, which I hasten to add is completely unrelated to Universal Studios despite sharing a name and logo). Just a hunch, but it's quite possible that Republic Records owns exclusive rights to any albums bearing the "Walking Dead" name. If they're uninterested in releasing the score (and it's easy to imagine they're not, given their bread and butter is hip-hop and rock), that's that.


Exactly.

I read the comments that somehow Bear is the problem here. Please...some people look for conspiracies in every corner it seems.

Fact is w/r/t The Walking Dead. Have any of you ever approached a studio unwilling to license out a film score? I have. You can bug them, cajole them, ask the composer, push the producers, even talk to the publishing companies. If AMC, for example, doesn't care or want to spend the time doing a deal, they aren't going to budge.

Let's face it, some studios/producers/networks do not care about our wants and needs. It's unfortunate I know.

I want soundtrack for Agent Carter. Suspect we need another season or two of Agent Carter. Seems to be the magic rule unless show overwhelming hit. Never forget getting through to cbs when airing flash and told "if we get renewed and I hope we do" then after second season do album. Two decades later or so LaLaLand did release with more tracks than cbs would have.

This is a fantastic album! Can't stop listening to it.

Ok, this is a terrific album. I've always wondered why I loved McCreary's work so much in BSG but just wasn't into his SHIELD music so much. (I love the show.)

I must need to listen closer. This music is terrific. It'll never happen, but why not give Bear Avengers 3?

I know right? I was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked this album. I've listened to this more than any other MCU soundtrack to date!

It is certainly better than I remember from the show. But I still find most of the heavy synth in the bigger action cues to be very distracting. It is a shame he can't just write them for a big orchestra and leave off the synth.

Yeah, I don't care for the synth either. The early action cues of the series are much more orchestral focused (like Human Target) but I guess Bear was asked to modernize things. It's interesting that this release is very season 1 heavy. Maybe he's saving the season 2 highlights for future soundtracks?

To be fair, the music is pretty undermixed a lot of the time, especially in season 2.

The music is buried in the show's mix, so hearing this album is really hearing most of this music for the first time.

I'm a McCreary fan, and I do like this, though by and large it's straight-ahead action music. What I love about his scores for "Galactica" and "Caprica" were the many opportunities he had where the music took prominence, where he could make surprising musical choices using a variety of musical forms -- the piano sonata for the Cylon ship, for instance.

He gets few such opportunities on "S.H.I.E.L.D." The music is thus accompaniment, and it does a fine job, but on "Galactica" the music was often the show's soul. To me, "S.H.I.E.L.D." (the show) doesn't have a lot of soul to go around, anyway.

Does anyone have a list of episodes to go along with the tracklist? Some are obvious, like the ones named after various episodes, but others aren't.
