The Alien: Earth soundtrack feels very out of place…

I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels this way, but the random guitar/rock vibe for the music choice in Alien: Earth feels very off… The initial Alien theme was well placed but I don’t know who on Earth thought it was a good idea to have rock music transition scenes in an Alien show. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Just no…

Jeff Russo is credited for composing the soundtrack for Alien: Earth and I’m genuinely confused why he chose to have such an off-brand genre of music for this series. Tonally, it felt very off.

It's not just you, the music completely took me out of both episodes, just ruined the vibe. I think i'm going through the stages of grief over this series, so far I am underwhelmed to say the least. Currently, i'm in denial... Honestly, Romulus is a masterpiece compared to this.

I guess everyone praising the series never actually watched an ALIEN film 😂 showing the beast in all its glory in the first few frames and transitioning with guitar / rock music is NOT on brand for the franchise. The music should be eerie, somewhat nonexistent at tense moments. Alien: Covenant did a much better job and even Romulus too for matching soundtrack with source material. Alien: Earth has some making up to do.
