This is David Julyan's second score after doing the music for Nolan's Following.

The CD contains most of his music that appeared in Memento and the more prominent original music from the movie. In addition to that there are a couple of tracks which do not appear in the movie (hence ..."Inspired" by the Film).

The tracks are arranged in the same 'chronology' as the movie, beginning with the opening title music and ending with David Bowie's track. The score itself is brilliant and suits the movie really well. The original tracks are mostly well chosen (mostly rock and club music) and are mostly equally delightful to listen to, although I can't understand the decision not to include Julyan's complete score and rather add some music that honestly has not very much to do with the movie...
