Between the time when the oceans drank Atlantis and the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an age undreamed of. And unto this, Conan, destined to wear the jeweled crown of Aquilonia upon a troubled brow. It is I, his chronicler, who alone can tell thee of his saga. Let me tell you of the days of high adventure!
Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then the HELL with you!
@@kenbattor6350 I pressed dislike because this performance is clearly inferior to the original recording from 1981. Besides that, I, of course, know what's best in life and make sure to crush my enemies, see them driven before me and hear the lamentations of their women on a daily basis!
In fact I do like it more than the original. There is a lot of new things here that change the way it sounds. But its simply great. There is a broadness to the themes now and there are new bold themes introduced that I like. Definitely a great piece!
Poledouris is indeed in debt with classical masters such as Prokofiev and Rosza, nonetheless his work is a brilliant re-elaboration. The wide range of motifs, from brooding darkness to joyful epic, to intimate sensitiveness and the masterful combination of instruments is one of finest in the history of epic movies.
Wow! While the new Prometheus rendition of Riddle of Steel was a bit of a let-down, this one's absolutely bombastic. I might like this one even more than the original. Fantastic job.

Hey there! I'm a writer, and I was hoping to use this in a book I'm working on. Is this a quote from somewhere? Because if it is I'd like to credit it properly.
I purchased this superb set back in 2010 when it was released by Tadlow Music and Prometheus Records . For me, it has become my preferred recording of this classic score. The attention to detail in reconstructing the score is remarkable. The sound quality is crisp and vibrant. The performance excellent. Had Basil lived to hear this recording I suspect he would have been thrilled with how it turned out. Buy this one up today!
I do agree, but it is not flawless. at times it is oversaturated, which is really a shame. But it is so good anyway. I am going to skate to this, next season.
I need to bring this to the front once more. It is not the same without Mako: "Between the time when the oceans drank Atlantis and the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an age undreamed of. And unto this, Conan, destined to wear the jeweled crown of Aquilonia upon a troubled brow. It is I, his chronicler, who alone can tell thee of his saga. Let me tell you of the days of high adventure!"
I listend to "Riders of Doom," eh.. not impressed. Went into this one with low expectations and... holyyyyyy shittttttt. This was outstanding. The nuance was nuts!
Thanks for uploading, though the original recording is classic and I grew up with it, this one is objectively of the highest quality. Played on a good system it really let's you hear that throbbing, hard, wet percussion.
so fantastic again here are really people who only release half of a soundtrack most of the tracks are missing or you can't even write I call it bullshit
En esta versión falta la introducción hablada, personalmente prefiero la original de 1982 que si contiene dicha intro y que le da a mí juicio un toque aún más épico a esta impresionante banda sonora, en cuanto a interpretación y sonido aún tengo que escucharla detenidamente para poder opinar, espero que está nueva versión al menos sea escuchable y no haya sido víctima de la "Loundness war" como la mayoría de los lanzamientos de hoy en día
I think the trumpet sounding parts in the original were a French Horn. Later in the soundtrack, Poledoris has a slower version of this, and that is played on a Bassoon (I think). Great soundtrack!
I listen to this whenever I need motivation for a workout. Works in no time. It's either this or listening and watching the Rocky 4 montage. They just don't make stuff like this anymore. You can have all your technology today but what has it done but made people lazier. I much rather go back to the 80's when men were men and we had testosterone fueled action movies and musical scores. Now with the emergence of the SJW movement infiltrating all forms of entertainment and making it a crime to be Alpha. I mean they already ruined StarWars. Now their in the process of doin it to the Terminator franchise. God help us all. No wonder young. and middle aged men are so confused these days. It's by design. We must unite and fight back. I hope Terminator Dark Fate is the biggest bomb of all time. All men should boycott that crap. Avatar too since Cameron greenlighted it.
I'm in my 50's and my doctor prescribed me this soundrack as a testosterone replacement therapy.

@@JeanBaptisteEmanuelZorg He is not a Sumerian ;)
The dislikes are disciples of Thulsa Doom. They failed to comprehend the riddle of steel.
LOL ))) great comment!
Lol
The 12 who pressed the dislike button clearly do not know what is best in life
now 15 should contemplate their dislike on the tree of woe
To listen to dis soundtrack! To crush your subwoofer, and hear the lamentation of your eardrums!
Probably supporters of Thulsa Doom.

25 complete pussies.
Manliest score on Earth ever created!
Good fort working out:-)
No shit.... Mabye only the predator intro with the epic handshake can match it
@@crazymonkeylord4899And Arnold Schwarzenegger is in both scenes
best soundtrack ever
This pleases Crom.
Strong in his mountains. That's crom.

@@adonisconrado And now James Earl Jones :(
The original manthem with brawny, thundering percussion and clarion-calling brass. A most excellent performance!
Those sweeping violins... God damn. Choked me right the fuck up.
In fact I do like it more than the original. There is a lot of new things here that change the way it sounds. But its simply great. There is a broadness to the themes now and there are new bold themes introduced that I like. Definitely a great piece!
Me too, this topped the original for me, and I'd have said that was impossible. It's really, really great.
Those who disliked will never learn the Riddle of Steel.
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! I’ve been looking for this for a long time after my own CDs vanished!
fantastic! this is the best movie score of all time in my opinion and it is great to hear a fresh new take on it.thank you for sharing this.
Exactly. No other movie has so much awesome music as Conan: The Barbarian
A lot.

Best score of all time for any movie
fully agreed. it's craaazy how good this score is for this movie.
This theme was so influental that Original Baldur's Gate used it as inspiration to create their theme song
This music gives humanity the strength to crush the snakes of the earth.
❤Sir and Master Basil Poleiduris, i bow me to your stunning musical genius. Hail Conan! ❤
Wow! While the new Prometheus rendition of Riddle of Steel was a bit of a let-down, this one's absolutely bombastic. I might like this one even more than the original. Fantastic job.
1:57 - The cold is running cross on my back. Awesome score! I love it!

@@sequoiagrovemetal I thought it was what you say too. Till I changed my DAC and I changed my mind about it.
Das wird nie langweilig. Geiles Stück!
The most epic soundtrack of all time, to the most epic film of all time.
My favorite OST of all time. I'm exited to hear this enhanced version.
This is the favorite ost of every men, even if they havent listened yet
If I was an MMA fighter or Boxer this would be my theme, to strike terror in my opponents before I even got to the ring.
This soundrack is most epic. The juiciest notes were forged on this anvil.
I went to shower as flabby pale nerd listening to this soundtrack...and I came out tanned.. Muscular with chesthair.
This 1 hits harder than the original soundtrack
The wheel of pain has massive operational inefficiencies.
I need to bring this to the front once more. It is not the same without Mako:

For those that disliked...TO HELL WITH YOU!!!
crank that bass. feel the majesty and the dread that creeps behind you!
I listen this before of my weightlifting training.
this pleases me
Beautiful version!
Amazing everytime i listen this masterpiece give me the force to do everything 😗😬
best version since the original
Magnificent!!
Personal studies say that Conan sountracks increase testosterone.
Conan makes love and slays his enemies to the same theme.
I listend to "Riders of Doom," eh.. not impressed. Went into this one with low expectations and... holyyyyyy shittttttt. This was outstanding. The nuance was nuts!
how tf do you think riders of doom is eh?
Oh, this is so really cool!

that was WAY too sensual lmao
James you sir are a lore master ;)
Played with the power the score deserves, maybe a bit heavily compressed though.
so fantastic again here are really people who only release half of a soundtrack most of the tracks are missing or you can't even write I call it bullshit
This is a masterpiece. Just wish somebody - somebody good - would do a metal version with power chords. Shake the rafters.
Looking for an extended version,would be great.
Best version by leaps and bounds.
Fuckin incredible score!!
Whenever anyone looks up the word Epic it should give the meaning and at the end (Anvil of Crom)...
What is best in life?
Stone Heart of their women
Free Beer
Muhahaha
To play brass in this orchestra playing this piece!
Awesome :) .
Super
All hail CROM!
Crush your enemies.
Словно как Гимн Аресу - богу войны.
"Youuuuuu!!"
Crom... fprgive to the 16 who gave dislike...
I feel like swinging a broadsword

Süper
Another good soundtrack (similar to this) is "Krull the Conqueror" ----> check it out guys and galls ;))
Good fucking movie, she told she was 19!

Audio starts at around 0:18
Doooommmm
Aayiyiyiyiyiyiyi!!!!!
Crom
What is this instrument that plays the line theme ? I think the original tuba, trombone whatever, was more virile . This one seems a bit shy, mute
I think the trumpet sounding parts in the original were a French Horn. Later in the soundtrack, Poledoris has a slower version of this, and that is played on a Bassoon (I think). Great soundtrack!
I like it in 1.25x
this is super dope , don't get me wrong. but you gata listen to the first song and get the into drums sounding right or else its just not as intense.
whats different about this one ?
1:02 👊😡🖑
Is it me, or is the percussion a bit less dynamic, in this version? A product of differing time periods, maybe... downstroking is dead. haha

Entertaining, but definitely inferior to the original performance.
