Here goes a quite detailed review:

Intro: 4.4 (a teaser to whats comin up)

Title and the plains: 4.8 - 5.0 (close to perfection)

Underground: 3.8 - 4.3 (Drops slightly in quality, but when compared to the plains, what music does'nt)

The castle: 4.2 - 4.5 (overall fine pieces that really suits the atmosphere and the slight increase in difficulty)

Water (last level): 4.1 - 4.8 (music is of quite uneven quality even within tunes ranging from just good to superb)

Game Over (when you die): 4.2 (far from as good as SOTB2 deathscene but still a fine piece)

The title music in SOTB2 is just increadibly beautiful.. Overall the ingame music has too much drums and is not as atmospheric as SOTB1, but still very good.. Deathscene is just brilliant.

Very good music with some peaks that rises upto SOTB1 quality and sometimes even surpasses it (title and deathscene). Overall ranking is still not as good as SOTB1.

For those that likes the SOTB type music. Check out Wrath of the demon, Unreal and Leander for more great audio of this kind.

Here!
Do not forget that each tune has 3-5 sub tunes. You need a player that can jump between sub tunes.

Ok, sorry thats not the MOD versions. They're in the David Whittaker format. If you use Windows use this player, on Amiga I'm not sure which is best DeliTracker, EaglePlayer, HippoPlayer or other. I do not think MOD versions exist of all these tunes and subtunes.
