Breaking Bad Isn't Breaking Ground
Review by Thomas Midena
Since the first season aired in 2008, this American drama series created by Vince Gilligan has risen to small-screen fame, and is now one of the most popular shows on television. Breaking Bad is a dark thriller which follows the story of Walter White, a man who descends into a life of crime in order to provide for his family. Supplying the soundtrack for the show since the beginning is composer Dave Porter. His music, however, takes a backseat in this production. It fulfills the necessary action and emotional beats, but never emerges beyond the format of a glorified soundscape.
