cinniblount (James Blount), Friday, 14 May 2004 06:14 (twenty years ago) link

i also like "two princes", the song baaderoni refers to

cinniblount (James Blount), Friday, 14 May 2004 06:14 (twenty years ago) link

I'm at 16 on the Buzz comp, if I pretend I haven't heard some of them in a long time.

the intro to the Mountain Goats "Best Ever Death-Metal Band..." always reminds me of "Breakfast At Tiffany's"

miloauckerman (miloauckerman), Friday, 14 May 2004 06:28 (twenty years ago) link

yes Blount that was AMP. The Jackal (which I also own, though it kinda sucks)is this:

1. Going Out of My Head performed by Fatboy Slim
2. Poison performed by Prodigy
3. Suerpredators (Metal Postcard) performed by Massive Attack
4. Star performed by Primal Scream
5. Swallowed [Goldie/Toasted on Both Sides Mix] performed by Bush
6. Joyful Girl [Peace and Love Mix] performed by Ani DiFranco
7. Shining performed by Moby
8. It's Over, It's Under performed by Dollshead
9. Get Higher performed by Black Grape
10. Sunray2 performed by Goldie / J. Majik
11. Shineaway performed by Three T / Richard Butler
12. Red Tape performed by Agent Provocateur
13. Toothache [Chemical Brothers Mix] performed by Charlatans UK
14. Leave You Far Behind performed by Lunatic Calm
15. Raw Power performed by Apollo Four Forty
16. Demons Theme performed by LTJ Bukem

God willya look at that. It didn't take long for 'electronica' to rope in all kinds of intolerable shit, did it? (although 13 is ace, 1 & 9 are OK and 6 is the only Ani Difranco-related thing I have ever enjoyed)

x-post

'two princes' is great. 'shine' is excrecable (cue casey casem explaining that the lead guitarist was a guitar teacher, that's why it's good see?).

why did everybody say that 'little miss can't be wrong' is misoginyst? i don't understand the hate.

man i heard "big empty" on the radio tonight and you best believe i CRANKED it up

Suerpredators (Metal Postcard) performed by Massive Attack
Is this in amy way related to the Siouxsie tune?

Baaderoni (Fabfunk), Friday, 14 May 2004 07:04 (twenty years ago) link

Somebody was asking after the Johnny Memonic OST and I remember it being so horrible that I just had to dig it up. I mean really, this is pretty bad.

1. Lost performed by Stabbing Westward - 3:21
2. 3 A.M. Incident performed by Cop Shoot Cop - 3:52
3. Complete performed by Helmet - 3:00
4. Sad But True performed by Orbital - 7:48
5. Virus performed by KMFDM - 5:07
6. I See Through performed by Rollins Band - 4:52
7. No More Love performed by God Lives Underwater - 4:15
8. Alex Descends into Hell for a Bottle of... (Bono/Edge [1]) - 3:36
9. Nothing performed by Stabbing Westward - 3:57
10. Send It Out performed by Brad Fiedel - 5:17

Although the Crow soundtrack does, in fact, blow, you have to admit that it suits the movie pretty well (although the movie is totally fucking sweet).

Of course, the only OSTs I've ever owned were from pre-90s movies and tend to be pretty good. Which I suppose says something about how much I really hated the 90s.

Stiv (Stiv), Friday, 14 May 2004 18:00 (twenty years ago) link

Is this in amy way related to the Siouxsie tune?

Yes. It's basically a super-dubby version of "Metal Postcard" and is fucking amazing and pretty much makes the entire soundtrack a must-buy.

VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 14 May 2004 18:23 (twenty years ago) link

13. Red Right Hand performed by Cave, Nick & The Bad Seeds / DJ Spooky - 8:23

Wow!

ARL (Adrian Langston), Friday, 14 May 2004 19:32 (twenty years ago) link

While it's true that Johnny Mnemonic sucked a big bag of greasy cocks -- the film and the soundtrack -- it did feature the final song by Cop $hoot Cop, that being the actually fucking great "3am Incident".

(enter Chuck Eddy and/or Chris Ott to come decry Cop Shoot Cop as being bad industrial funkers...blah blah blah)

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 14 May 2004 20:10 (twenty years ago) link

The Spawn soundtrack! That was my generation's Judgement Night soundtrack!

Sym (shmuel), Friday, 14 May 2004 22:26 (twenty years ago) link

"Skin Up Pin Up" is really, really awesome.

AMAZING REVIEWS!

Rose from california
Im just 17 and i love this cd because it has all the best alternative songs when all the breaker artists started to emerge away from conforming to what they thought rock was supposed to be standard. This cd brings back memories of real music as a kid...

I still wish that Eve 6 song was a Mighty Mighty Lemon Drops cover.

VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Saturday, 22 May 2004 15:22 (twenty years ago) link

I bet back in their 80's underground heyday no one would have ever thought of seeing Butthole Surfers on that type of compilation.

latebloomer (latebloomer), Saturday, 22 May 2004 15:37 (twenty years ago) link

Anything with "No Rain" or "You Get What You Give" on it can't be all bad.

Mr. Snrub (Mr. Snrub), Saturday, 22 May 2004 16:18 (twenty years ago) link

What a wretched time to grow up...

UGHHH.... This thread sums up my life from like 6th grade till the start of 9th grade. Also:

I BELIEVE THAT ELVIS IS DEAD.

Also, Pulp Fiction came out in 1994. OMG WTF?!?! Am I old yet?

1990's nostalgia is going to be so terrifying.

Judgment Night

1. Just Another Victim performed by Helmet /House of Pain - 4:21

My mate Tom had the drunken idea once that Empire Record should be rereleased on DVD every 6 months with the soundcheck altered to represent what was in the charts at that moment.

I think this is a very good idea.

Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Sunday, 15 May 2005 16:10 (nineteen years ago) link

its kinda weird to say this now, but around this time (1995 or so) the first Korn album had come out, and it seemed OUT THERE and FREAKY to my 8th grade ears. the 'weird skater' kids were into it. and it had a singer screaming nursery rhymes. KUH-RAYZEEE

i suppose that's a testament to how musically bland that era was.

Referring to the top half of this thread, before it turned into "name that soundtrack" - most of these records are not especially bad. This is just another 90's-hatorz thread. If you hate the 90s you hate music.

See, I was about to say the opposite. Reading the top half of this thread kind of redeemed my faith in ILM. I

rkjfkfjkj, Sunday, 18 December 2005 19:37 (eighteen years ago) link

There was no original Frampton on the Reality Bites soundtrack? That seems so wrong.

Sundar (sundar), Sunday, 18 December 2005 20:03 (eighteen years ago) link

Good for you and your faith.

Seems to me that most of the people who posted these albums looked at the bands involved and judged the records based on the few that they recognize, without having heard the actual songs.

Romeo + Juliet is not a bad album at all. It has "Talk Show Host" and "Lovefool," which are 2 of the best songs ever made.

billstevejim (billstevejim), Sunday, 18 December 2005 21:40 (eighteen years ago) link

If you want a not-so-great 90's comp, may I suggest the John Lennon tribute album "Working Class Hero." The 3 or 4 best songs are listenable, but mediocre efforts, and most of the rest is not quite as enjoyable.

And I absolutely hate that Zeppelin tribute record that included STP's cover of "Dancing Days" (worst thing they ever did by far) and 4 Non Blondes ugly version of "Hey Hey What Can I Do."

billstevejim (billstevejim), Sunday, 18 December 2005 21:51 (eighteen years ago) link

It also has One Inch Punch, Des'Ree, and the fucking Wannadies.

The Wannadies don't get enough hate around these parts, or in the wider world in general.

Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Sunday, 18 December 2005 21:53 (eighteen years ago) link

romeo and juliet has that gavin friday tune as well.

gear (gear), Sunday, 18 December 2005 22:02 (eighteen years ago) link

Today at work I listened to the soundtracks to The Crow, Suburbia, and Mad Love.

Tracks 3 through 12 on The Crow are all good songs. The Cure song is eh, and the Medicene song is annoying. The other 2 are shit. 10 out of 14 isn't bad. The Crow soundtrack is not worth the title of this thread.

There are 2 good songs on Mad Love. (#3 and #6 I think.)

The Suburbia soundtrack has some shockingly outstanding moments (an 8-minute version of "Sunday" by Sonic Youth?!!?), but much like most of the albums discussed here, it's unfortuantely uneven.

billstevejim (billstevejim), Wednesday, 21 December 2005 02:35 (eighteen years ago) link

If for no other reason, The Crow ST gets a pass simply for being the first American release to contain "Snakedriver" by JAMC - definitely a high point of their twilight years (and certainly a staple of their live sets from around that time).

I never owned it, though, so Question: Is the Crow version of Time Baby III the one that has backing vocals by Liz Fraser? If so, then bonus.
