    Skeleton of A Town is probably his most beautiful tune.

    I think he improved a lot, comparing DA:O's score to DAII! [2] for sure

    Not the best soundtrack composer out there. Usually his soundtracks are okay at best.

    I agree with p3dy :) I was underwhelmed with the music in-game, though listening to it on it's own makes me appreciate it a lot more. The vocal songs are so lovely.

    Dragon Age's music was indeed boring, but there are some hidden gems :) Elves at the mercy of men, Mages at their Chantry and the 2 vocal songs (Leliana's song and I am the one) are gorgeous :) Otherwise.. Jeremy Soule is the absolute perfection if it comes to games and music :)
