Description of Spawn: The Album (1997 Film):
In a bordering-on-brilliant idea, the overseers of The Spawn soundtrack proposed an idea to a host of bands that went something like this: "you metal kids go play nice with the electronic geeks and maybe you'll make beautiful music together." Well, guess what? It happened. From the sexy, screamy sounds of the opening cut "Can't You Trip Like I Do" (courtesy of Filter and The Crystal Method) to the funkified "One Man Army" (Rage Against The Machine's Tom Morello mixing it up with The Prodigy), the disc is as hot as the Spawn's home and twice as heavy as the monster himself. If you like the CD, rent the video; the soundtrack is front and center in the film, kind of like MTV with a plot. --Denise Sheppard
Spawn: The Album (1997 Film) Reviews:
Genre-mixing before it was cool... 
2009-08-01 - Happy Walters, founder of Immortal Records (which helped launch Korn, Incubus, Rage, and Kanye West...among others), is the man behind not only this Spawn Soundtrack (electronica + metal), but also the Judgment Night Soundtrack (rock and rap) and the Blade II Soundtrack (rap and electronica).
As for this album, it was definitely ground-breaking. "Familiar" is a downbeat electronic groove with Incubus and DJ Greyboy. The Korn and Dust Brothers song "Kick the PA" is alright, Tom Morello and Kirk Hammet each kick out the guitar jams in an awesome fashion alongside Prodogy and Orbital, respectively. All in all, this is an interesting CD and is worth a listen. I highly recommend the Judgement Night soundtrack as an even better soundtrack along similar lines.
If anything, whether or not this CD was a big hit, Happy Walters deserves some recognition for bringing together musical genres before it was cool to do so. This CD is worth the $10 it costs to buy.
A Memorable Movie Soundtrack? Sign Me Up
2009-04-05 - Saw the movie once. It was OK, but like a thousand movies you've seen once and moved on from, there's typically very little in the soundtrack that you're going to remember.
I "remembered" one song from this one, and that's the soundtrack's only real hit "Trip Like I Do", which from a fan of both Filter and Crystal Method was a fabulous synergy of gritty alternative rock and classic electronica. I always found it interesting that both bands have a version of this song that ISN'T the collaborative effort on their own discography, but this soundtrack's version is so much better than either solo effort.
That song stuck with me enough to re-discover the movie soundtrack, mind you, with no intentions of watching the movie again. And after this re-visiting I'm left with one of those rare "wow" moments.
Whoever thought about merging techno/electronica guys with metal/hard rock guys is truly genius. At its best (Manson/Sneaker Pimps, Orbital/Hammett, Prodigy/Morello, Slayer/ATR) it is the most amazing crossover of musical genres you'll ever hear. At its worst it's entertaining "summer blockbuster" stuff.
If you're a fan of any of these conjoined genres, it's worth a listen. If you're a fan of any of the musicians on this soundtrack, it's a MUST listen.
different track 6? 
2009-04-05 - Hello everyone,
Have no clue where else to post something like this, so I'm writing it here. For the oddest of reasons, my copy of this album has a completely different track 6. Every site I go to lists track 6 as "For Whom The Bell Tolls". The copy I have lists track 6 as "This Is Not A Dream". What gives? I know this isn't some sort of collector's edition or something, because I've never heard of something like that with this album. Also, I'm not that lucky, lol. Anyway, if anyone else has a copy of this album that is the same way or any info as to why mine is different than seemingly everyone else in the world, I would greatly appreciate a response/review/ridicule of my ingorance, etc.
Classic techno-metal experimental soundtrack
2009-03-07 - I thought this album was amazing when it came out, and I still think so. This is an experimental album where each song is made through collaboration through an electronic artist and metal or rock artist. The combination is excellent for tracks like Trip Like I Do & Tiny Rubberband. I'd rate all of the songs 5/5 except for Satan which is especially disappointing since Metallica was up to bat. 0/5 for Satan.
Check this out if you like electronic, rock, or experimental types of music - you'll love it.
