Seven more soundtrack reviews are on your way, on this fine day: it's Christmas day, hooray! Starting off, we have two piano CDs. One is (apparently) really good, and one is (definitely) really bad. Can you guess which is which? Arc the Lad Piano Album, reviewed by Damian Thomas, and Dragon Quest VII Warriors of Eden On Piano, reviewed by yours truly, await. Mr. Thomas also keeps us up-to-speed with the many Genso Suikoden arranged soundtrack releases by giving us a full review of Genso Suikoden Celtic Collection 2...as if the first one wasn't enough. Actually, it wasn't, according to Thomas. This CD apparently "hits the spot", so check it out. I slaved over a hot kitchen stove to bring you this Christmas buffet of soundtrack reviews: that's right, I wrote up all the rest listed down below. Of particular note, I would like to say that I was SHOCKED with the quality compositions found in The Granstream Saga OST. The others are also definitely unique; if you have any interest in videogame music, be sure to check out all seven of these reviews. And next month, be prepared to get rocked (sort of) by an all-out Final Fantasy Piano Collections review update, featuring the recently-released Final Fantasy VII Piano Collections. Until then, word up, and peace out!
