"the irony of it all" wtffff

dmr, Friday, 20 July 2007 16:27 (sixteen years ago) link

Is there really a scare-apostrophe in the title of the Soul Coughing one?

Ebert: As a visual experience, ``Spawn'' is unforgettable.

well I do agree with this.

El Tomboto, Friday, 20 July 2007 22:14 (sixteen years ago) link

I liked a few of the OST songs, the Prodigy/Morello one I was into when it came out. Clubs flogged "trip like I do" to death, oooh its about acid wooo arent we all crazy. Geez.

one year passes...

Mansun & 808 State - Skin Up Pin Up

I still rep for this track.

1899 Horsey Horseless (HI DERE), Monday, 8 June 2009 17:53 (fourteen years ago) link

Marilyn Manson & Sneaker Pimps - Long Hard Road Out Of Hell

this one, too

1899 Horsey Horseless (HI DERE), Monday, 8 June 2009 17:54 (fourteen years ago) link

I used to have that soundtrack too, but I later sold it to friend. Now I kinda regret it, because IIRC the Orbital/Hammett and Apollo 440/Morphine and Rollins/Goldie tunes were quite nice. The Prodigy/Morello tune was okay too, though I think there was better version of without Morello called "No Man Army". Or did I dream that one up?

Tuomas, Monday, 8 June 2009 19:06 (fourteen years ago) link

i saw this in theaters at the age of 12

No, that existed and it was better.

i like the slayer vs atari teenage riot song

Friend of mine spotted an entire shopping cart full of Spawn VHS's at Goodwill recently.

circa1916, Monday, 15 March 2010 20:46 (fourteen years ago) link

one thing that does not hold up on this soundtrack is "For Whom The Bell Tolls (The Irony Of It All)" by Metallica & DJ Spooky

I came to this soundtrack thinking it would be as awesome as the Judgment Night soundtrack. I was sorely disappointed.

the Metallica track especially

I will never forget the awesome pairing of Faith No More and the Boo Yaa Tribe

``Spawn'' is best seen as an experimental art film. It walks and talks like a big budget horror film, heavy on special effects and pitched at the teenage audience, and maybe that's how it will be received. But it's more impressive if you ignore the genre and just look at what's on the screen. What we have here are creators in several different areas doing their best to push the envelope. The subject is simply an excuse for their art--just as it always is with serious artists.

ian, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:11 (thirteen years ago) link

I saw this movie because the speed freaks that had been squatting in what became my studio had left a vhs tape of this behind when the fire department kicked them out. It was pretty horrible.

Oh I had forgotten Incubus/DJ Greyboy, this is also great.

the Hannah Montana of the Korean War (DJP), Wednesday, 15 November 2017 20:14 (six years ago) link

I had also forgotten that Atari Teenage Riot/Slayer might as well just be Atari Teenage Riot, lol

the Hannah Montana of the Korean War (DJP), Wednesday, 15 November 2017 20:17 (six years ago) link

huh I remember Soul Coughing/Roni Size as an interminable slog but right now it's fantastic. (Let's see how I feel 2 minutes from now.)
