I'm only familiar with 6 of the 16 songs on this blu-ray, so I can't compare most of the songs to the originals. The songs I know all have a hard rock hook I was afraid would be softened by adding an orchestra. I'm happy to report that is not the case.
The sound on the dts-HD master audio is outstanding and the surrounds really enhance the experience. I only have a 5.1 setup but what I hear moving between the speakers front and back and overhead makes me believe this would be a good fit for dolby atmos.
I didn't think I would like this, but it's got some real headbangers and I loved it. I would give it a solid 9 but bumped to a 10 because my wife also likes it. You know what they say, happy wife.

Hmm, quite difficult. My vote is related to 5.1 (and Atmos fold down).

Music: 9
Package: 9
Mix: 5. A bit disappointing. Most of the "action" is taking place at front. Center is not used that much. Subwoofer level is low.
Had to be tweaked.

Because mix is more important than package it's a 7.

And I wonder why Diamond Star Halos wasn't released like this release...
