3.5 greatghostalgeist | July 16th 21

the idea of a death note musical is still pretty insane and somewhat silly on paper, but some of these songs are actually great? "hurricane" is one of the finest solo male songs from 2000's theatre, and "playing his game" is a fierce, ferocious banger; the duets between L and Light are the undeniable highlight of the whole album. there's a few too many ballads on this LP - some of them sound good ("when love comes" and "mortals and fools" come to mind), but they hardly fit the overall sound of death note. an enjoyable Broadway pop-rock opera that captures just enough of the sound of the show's OST to sound unique - that said, it could have benefitted from more of Death Note's atmospheric vibe and overall sound.
