Ennio Morricone's Spasmo Colonna Sonora Originale is a mesmerizing masterpiece that captivates the listener from start to finish. The album features a hauntingly beautiful orchestration that perfectly complements the film's eerie and suspenseful storyline. Morricone's signature use of unconventional instruments, such as the harpsichord and electric guitar, adds a unique layer of depth and intrigue to the music.
The album's standout tracks include "Spasmo," which features a haunting melody that builds to a frenzied climax, and "L'uccello dalle piume di cristallo," which showcases Morricone's exceptional ability to create tension through music. The use of dissonant chords and unconventional time signatures adds to the unsettling atmosphere of the album.
