Cate BlanchettвЂ™s villain doesnвЂ™t get a theme herself as such, but she does get some appropriately menacing, growling material, perhaps most notably in the later stages of (the otherwise rather dull) вЂњTwilight of the GodsвЂќ.

We get a great arrangement of the main theme in вЂњThor: RagnarokвЂќ complete with rock guitar (a little nod to Queen), then comes вЂњWeird Things HappenвЂќ, which bizarrely recreates the style and orchestration of Michael GiacchinoвЂ™s Doctor Strange without actually quoting his theme (a little similarly, there are hints at but not direct quotes of Brian TylerвЂ™s Thor theme a couple of times). The nine-minute piece is really good, probably the albumвЂ™s highlight.

Interestingly, this is not the sort of вЂњkeyboard music transcribed for orchestraвЂќ that you might expect (and which you hear from all the film composers who find themselves writing for orchestra despite not knowing how to do so) вЂ“ itвЂ™s proper orchestral music, not as in Shostakovich or Brahms, but in the sense that itвЂ™s written and orchestrated properly, and recorded in a way that makes the instruments sound like instruments and not like samples. Other elements in the suite are actually probably more impressive: after ThorвЂ™s theme we get a surprisingly stirring, emotional theme with wordless female vocalist accompanied by lovely strings and vibrant electronics and perhaps better still is the action theme which follows, with pulse-pounding, full-bodied writing for strings and brass. It reveals itself quite early in the opening вЂњRagnarok SuiteвЂќ, after a bleak opening minute or so вЂ“ very much cut from the same cloth as Brian TylerвЂ™s theme for the character, itвЂ™s got an appropriately heroic vibe much like TylerвЂ™s, itвЂ™s simple, and while itвЂ™s frankly not nearly as catchy, it does what it needs to do. Needless to say, thematic continuity not being MarvelвЂ™s modus operandi, Mothersbaugh created his own theme for Thor, the characterвЂ™s third in as many movies. The eclectic score was originally conceived by composer and director to be an all-electronic 1980s throwback, but the studio insisted it should have an orchestral base, and the result is an entertaining mixture of the two styles, not surprisingly closest in tone to Tyler BatesвЂ™s two Guardians of the Galaxy scores in terms of this cinematic universe (but itвЂ™s better than either of them, with both the electronic and orchestral elements being delivered with greater verve).

(I was probably not alone in thinking he was at serious risk of following more closely in the footsteps of Carter Burwell, the original composer attached to the previous film.) As a film and tv composer Mothersbaugh is best-known for his work on the earlier films of Wes Anderson and on Rugrats, and heвЂ™s never scored anything remotely like this. If Taika Waititi was an unlikely choice of director for a film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I think if you had asked film music fans a year ago to write a list of the film composers most likely to score this film, and forced them to carry on writing until they guessed successfully, most of them would still be writing now, with DevoвЂ™s Mark Mothersbaugh an extraordinarily left-field choice to follow in the footsteps of Patrick Doyle and Brian Tyler.

The filmвЂ™s tone makes it a unique entry in this series and it will be interesting to see how the filmmakers revisit the character in future. As if thatвЂ™s not bad enough, Asgard is threatened by the Ragnarok, which as all Old Norse scholars will know is based on the old warrior Ragnar Ok. Marvel goes all-out comedy in Thor: Ragnarok, the third in the series focusing on Chris HemsworthвЂ™s ThorвЂ™s battles with his brother Loki (Tom Hiddlestone) and, this time, still greater foes as he finds himself caught up in all sorts of problems, not least being forced into gladiatorial battles against the Hulk.
