Confessions of Pain Soundtrack (OST)

Review taken from Here at MovieXclusive.
You just need to listen to the track “Confession†on this album to get a feel of how empty and lonely life can be at times. And that is enough to make your already blue day even bluer.
The rain falling outside in the middle of the night probably won’t help to cheer up things. But that is exactly what this 42-minute soundtrack album is all about: urban alienation in this busy society of ours.
Consisting of 13 score tracks composed by award-winning composer Chan Kwong Wing, this is one of the recent rare gems offered by the Hong Kong film industry. Not only does it contain a substantial dose of rich-sounding score, there are four few specially-chosen songs which will complete your listening experience.
Other than the abovementioned track, the other stylistically moody tracks include “Love Hurtâ€, “Pain†and “Church†– as if the titles are not telling enough already. The action cues are infused with a certain tinge of glumness in them as well. And kudos to Chan’s creativity in using resonating baritone male and female solos in his works effectively. The use of the western flugelhorn and the traditional erhu and Chinese drums in tracks like “Killing Night†and “Alley Chase†are refreshing to listen to too.
Then there are the songs. Besides the jazzy “Silent Night†and “Rememberâ€, there is also the Mandarin cover of Ayumi Hamasaki’s “Secret†as performed by Hong Kong singer Denise Ho. Her resonating delivery of the tune provides a brooding mood which gives the whole album a nice entirety.
After one spin in your player, you’d be thinking, if your life was as melancholic as this soundtrack, it’d make one great movie.
