There were 2 soundtracks released. There's one that's the battle soundtrack which is just heavy metal music, the other is the official soundtrack that's done by the Prague Philharmonic.

i've wanted to buy this game, but then i think back to how incredibly dull and boring the combat was and i cringe. The graphics are fantastic though, and it seems to have some HUGE worlds.

High's = everything... music, story (really good), voice acting (really good), gameplay (exploration, puzzles, etc...), graphics (oh yeah!!!!).
Low's = combat (not a big low and everything changes when you get the Vampire form).

Yep that form is awesome the laser whip. The first 2 are pretty mediocre but you can avoid most combat during that time so it's not so bad. The last form is pretty nice too, it had to be since that's the most combat heavy mission there is. The vampire section is definetly the high point of the game in terms of everything, combat, music, characters, story ect.

No, the music was used very well...but almost entirely in cutscenes. Keep in mind that there is a very good story here and a rather large number of lengthy cutscenes to go with it, so the music is not wasted. It really makes a strong impression during those scenes.
Now, the in game audio is largely ambient, but they do use some of the orchestral tracks around various places (while you explore). The battle music, thouogh, is just a bunch of generic rock music. Thankfully, you can turn it off...which is exactly what I did. Sadly, the boring combat feels even more so when there is no music to drive you.
I really enjoyed the experience, but it makes a fairly weak game. The exploration was interesting, the puzzles were decent, the world was incredible, the story and characters were top notch, and it managed to keep me playing until the end...but the combat is pretty darn awful.
