Attack on Titan
| They definitely didn't used the vocal version of Memory Lane and Splinter Wolf with drums (I think there's more examples, but I can only remeber those two). But technically speaking I think they used all the "main melodies" in here. Although I was excpecting something like Season 3, and they would release the soundtrack after Part 2. I don't think this is a sign that what is to come isn't fully a Part 2, it's probably because it would be too much waiting when you already have that amount of songs ready. Also I'm probably gonna get backlash from the whole "music is subjective" people, but the difference in quality between Sawano and Kohta is just huge. When the 21st track started playing you could immediately feel a huge step up in quality compared to what Kohta did. Don't get me wrong, Kohta's tracks are really well made, specially the non-action ones, but SNK OST used to be such an epic experience that you just immediately got gosebumps listening to any track, as Kohta OST are at best an 8/10 experience. Knowing this structure of 20 tracks for Kohta and 3 for Sawano, I can only hope Part 2 will now give the main lead back to Sawano (I wouldn't be surprised if they planned on giving Part 1 almost entirely to Kohta and Part 2 almost entirely to Sawano) |

npdekuu said: Man, Memory lane was such a good OST.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=heCSk5WxxLM So, Pony canyon uploaded this... correct me if i'm wrong, but I don't think I've heard some of these in part 1... I think some of them are going to be in P2. They are quite good on their own but Sawano really needs to be in P2 his OSTs are the most memorable ones. Bababazooka69 said: I agree it was not as good as Sawano's music but they still are amazing and quite a banger especially Ashes on fire and Fall of Marley OSTs and far far away from being anything like trash.Damn this ost is trash too much downgrade from s1-s3 osts |

Nah don't worry a lot of people seem to feel that way (including me) |

| Kohta has made some very good soundtracks like Nightmare, cold light, zeeks plan, and ashes on the fire. But as soon as 21. AOTF-s1 played you could feel the increase in quality. Sawanos music has so much excitiement and has all sorts of emotions. As soon as 21 played I felt like jumping out the window while biting my hand. |
| Kohta is amazing and he definitely managed to give the show a different atmosphere without feeling out of place. Sawano is amazing as always and, without doubt, better because of the masterpieces he composed in the previous seasons but you guys overrate him too much and calling Kohta soundtrack "trash" is just laughable. |

| "The Fall of Marley" seems suitable for rumbling scenes, it has a tragic atmosphere. |

Maybe they could make a variation?🤔 Yeah, a variation would be awesome, especially if kohta added a vocal in it just for rumbling scene. |

| Nightmare, The Successor, The Warriors, The Fall of Marley, and Nowhere to go are all really good tracks. The only ones that even compare to Sawano's work in terms of how epic and dynamic they sound are 'The Warriors' and 'Ashes on Fire'. I like some of the Kohta's work but you can't deny that Sawano's OSTs are far superior. They just have that extra 10% that wow you when Kohta's rarely do. Hopefully Sawano plays more of a part in S4P2. |

Hopefully Sawano plays more of a part in S4P2. Yup, those were some really good ones (and I agree, I think those two were among the couple that got up there too) and there were a few more so it's not like he didn't do a good job but yeah overall just can't compare at all to Sawano's iconic work on this show. Hopefully since a good chunk of this season was new Marley cast stuff, and therefore kind of fitting with different music and then the occasional reassertion we got of old Sawano tracks for key moments with the Scouts, Kohta getting such a large amount of P1's soundtrack will work out to where it's given Sawano the time to do a lot of work again on P2's since it's the big finale. Like you said though, I just hope that at the very least Sawano plays a lot more of a part in S4P2 than he did for the first. Do you know what projects Sawano has in future, now that he's finished with 86? |
| Damn, listening to all these OSTs in their entirety really makes me appreciate Kohta Yamamoto. It's true that Sawano's style and intensity are hard to match, but Kohta did a hell of a job making his own mark on the show and creating some memorable pieces. Considering how burnt out Sawano was on doing AOT music, we wouldn't have gotten any of these new tracks at all if his protégé didn't step in to help. Zeke's Plan and Cold Light are chilling and atmospheric, Memory Lane and Friendships are emotional and hard-hitting, Splinter Wolf comes closer than any other song I've heard to matching Sawano's energy, etc. I could go on but basically great job Kohta, as with the season itself I understand if people have issues but I cannot fathom how anyone can look at this season and its OST and think it's in anyway bad. |
| Are ya winning, diners? |
| You guys praise Sawano like he is at the same quality he was in first season. The guy wrote maybe like a half a dozen banger tracks for AoT over the decade since but most of his stuff is legacy music. He is very good but not as good as you give him credit for. At least Kohta spiced things up a bit with some new themes. I have more than a few gripes about last season but music is not one of them. |
