How I love this album, oh let me count the ways,

While the movie as a whole as a dissapointment this soundtrack soars above because it does what a soundtrack for a movie starring Dracula should do (no, not suck) it brutally pulverizes your senses and leaves you drained! Hows that for a play on words for ya...Anyways, with unreleased and killer tracks by Powerman 5000 and Disturbed as well as some new cuts by old hats like Pantara and the brilliantly awsomely brutal 'Bloodline' by Slayer, this album gets off to one hell of a right foot. 'A Welcome Burden' is a welcome release and SoaD's remake of Berlin's 'Metro' is crazy and brilliant all at the same time, off the wall and in your face. One of the standout tracks here. Monster Magnet delivers a great one-two-punch and Pantara tramples you to the ground with 'Avoid the Light'. I would have liked to see a different Linkin Park song incorporated for 'One Step Closer' was so over-played at the time, but the inclution of Taproots 'Day by Day' was nice since that song was so...Read more

Some good, some bad....,

I'm not much of a fan of movie soundtracks. It's often extremely difficult to find a compilation of songs which is cohesive and enjoyable in one listen. Dracula 2000 falls in that category of being overall unsatisfying and tepid. The producers put mainly a bunch of new-metal radio hits on there (Linkin Park, Saliva, Disturbed) with a few respectable songs (Slayer, Pantera, Godhead, Monster Magnet). Most of these songs have absolutely NOTHING to do with vampires or horror or anything resembling the movie. Soundtracks like Moulin Rouge create a glammy, sleazy feeling, O' Brother, Where Art Thou? creates a swampy deep-south feeling while The Matrix is purely futuristic and techno. Not saying I like glam or bluegrass but these are perfect counterparts to their movie which they represent. Dracula 2000 has nothing to do with vampires except for two songs. The overall sound (except for a few songs) is like listening to your local alternative rock station, and it doesn't even rock. I'm sure...Read more

Just download "Metro",

Most of the stuff on here is rap metal. If you like that genre of music you'll love this soundtrack. If you like good metal, download the tracks by System of a Down, Pantera, and Slayer. You'll be happy you weren't suckered into buying the soundtrack like I was.
