Stargate SG-1 (Music from the MGM Original Television Series)

Crítica do álbum

Composer David Arnold (Independence Day, The World Is Not Enough) brings exactly what one would expect to the table for director Roland Emmerich's teleportation-based science fiction tale. By utilizing familiar space motifs in the vein of John Williams and integrating electronics and bits and pieces of Middle Eastern folk music into the Egyptian-themed tale, Arnold dutifully takes the "space opera" to some new vistas, but the overall effect is as familiar as a gun that shoots laser beams instead of bullets. [Varese Sarabande reissued Stargate in 2006 in a deluxe edition that featured the entirety of the original score.]
