I check it every now and then. It's like troll central. Occasionally someone on there has actually seen the film and has cool stuff to say, but those posts are few and very far between
Yeah, but a few months ago (say, mid-September) that board was relatively troll free. People were actually participating. But it seems like the number of trolls has just magnified by a factor of 100 in the last couple of weeks, after the first reviews started coming in (around the time of EW's article). It's really sad. Anyway, this is a soundtrack discussion, so...

That's because both of those scenes use the same remarkably eerie but sublime piece by Ligeti, a piece that has served as the model for decades of "ominous wailing choir" stuff in scores and trailers. I like how it's done here though.
I love it. in all three uses

Definitely a part of the third theme. This sounds like a track that would - obviously - go better with a particular scene in the film as opposed to one you'd be listening to for pleasure. It was very Phantom of the Opera-esque.

Thanks! Started listening bits and pieces, couldn't believe how good it sounded, stopped before spoiling myself.

It sounds pretty great and I'm quite sure that I'll love it in the movie along with the proper context but listening it on its own felt little weird. Anyway, it's satisfying to hear something quite original from Hans.

I saw the movie, it is for sure in it.
I believe it is played right before they enter the wormhole near Saturn. The thunder noises at the beginning are what Cooper is listening to on his music player. It's a beautiful scene with the sound of rain falling endlessly, embellished by the thunder as beautiful shots of Saturn are appearing on the screen. It is followed by one of the most intense scene in the movie, when they enter the bulk.
