Track-by-Track: Soundtrack Discussion and Analysis

[dancing spawn of ungoliant]

Ah, this is a very gloomy track and a real mixture of various themes. At 1:56 there's the choir again chanting in Adûnaic. I spotted an extract that I believe is from the same poem that is heard in The Black Rider. Bârî 'n Katharâd îdô Nidir...
At 2:18 the low calm notes are really frightful! Then the strings start a Shelob-like sliding and tremolo. It's maybe the creepiest part on the whole cd.

It's rather hard to me to think this track as a whole since the themes keep varying and changing so quickly. It consists of beautiful elements, though.

I realized that for a few seconds it sounds similar to the music from Pirates of the Caribbean!

Now that you said it, I noticed it too. This is even more off topic but on the soundtrack of King Arthur there's one piece where I could swear the choir is chanting Grond! Grond! Grond!. Wrong movie, perhaps?

this track is pi minutes long

...Which reminded me of my math homework that I haven't done yet.
