Rob Zombie and Filter offer new remixes of their popular songs, and Hole offers a remix of "It's All Over Now Baby Blue" which was available as a B-side on the "Malibu" single. The Tricky Track is a barely remixed version of antihistimine, and Kid Rock's contribution "Warm Winter" dates from 1995. So if you are a fan of these bands looking for new material be forewarned! However, the soundtrack is a great compilation of some of the best artists in the alternative rock scene. THE CROW has always featured great soundtracks, and this is no exception! I enjoy the music better than the films in most cases, and I was not disappointed this time around. Definitely a must-have CD for all you alt-rock fans because it gives you a good mix of great bands. The perfect solution for "what do I play" while cruising around this Summer. 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful: By This review is from: The Crow - Salvation: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD) An eclectic lineup for a soundtrack indeed (if you want an even more eclectic lineup check out The Crow: City of Angels soundtrack), The Crow: Salvation soundtrack will keep you interested for a while, but it will wear thin rather soon. Filter and Rob Zombie continue the contest of "how many soundtracks can we be on" with remixes of "The Best Things" and (yet another remix) "Living Dead Girl" respectively, while Kid Rock offers a surprisingly solid song entitled "Warm Winter". Hole offers a cover of Bob Dylan's "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue", a solid track it is, but not as good as their cover of "Gold Dust Woman" from The Crow: City of Angels soundtrack. Static-X and Fear Factory's Burton C. Bell offer a cover of Ministry's "Burning Inside", which is good, but lacks the punch of the original. Stabbing Westward offers a remix of "Waking Up Beside You", but I think the original version would have been...Read more 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: By A Customer This review is from: The Crow - Salvation: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD) I received an advanced copy of the latest Crow soundtrack, Salvation. So I have had plenty of time to soak in the atmosphere, so to speak. The atmosphere is full of regret, sorrow, pain, and anger, just what we would count on from a soundtrack with the Crow name on it. What I did not expect was to find a Crow soundtrack that had as much groove, as it does emotion. Starting with Filter's 'The Best Things', Zombie's 'Living Dead Girl', I found my body moved, as well as emotions. Jeff Most has put together, in my opinion, the best soundtrack of 2000. There are a few firsts for a Crow album, on the soundtrack. Two songs that are pretty much instrumentals, Crystal Method's 'Now is the time', and Sins' 'Painful'. The later, a mix of club beats, and alternative guitar, that mixes very well. The other first is the acoustic 'Independent Slaves', from Days of New. In a time when we are seeing music "mixed" to death, 'Slaves' is a refreshing hark back to bare bones rock...Read more |
