This is not a list of "the best," it's just a bunch of soundtracks that we think represent some of the most fantastic music ever to accompany the monsters of moviedom.

I’m going to go ahead and admit right up front that I missed Godzilla (2014), of which this film is a sequel, and will therefore be unable to compare Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) to its immediate predecessor. What I can tell you is that it’s fairly easy to follow this film without seeing the first, and from what I understand there is only a little overlap in characters between the two. While I’m sure there was probably a call-back or two that went over my head, on the whole this movie stands up on its own and is very much its own story.
