David Lynch is a director I've held in particularly high esteem ever since I saw the masterful exploration of sickening constriction, Eraserhead. I've seen a few of his other movies, but never the Lost Highway - I found out about this one (like the other reviewers here) from my Nine Inch Nails fanhood.
Trent Reznor organizing the soundtrack to a Lynch film makes shockingly perfect sense to me, and upon seeing the track listing for the album, I was further enthused - 23 tracks, obviously set off in the right direction with rare and unusual songs by the greats Reznor, Lou Reed, David Bowie and Smashing Pumpkins (perhaps Manson, but that's another debate) and a plethora of intriguingly-titled songs by artists I didn't know.
Upon listening, the album is a brilliant and captivating experience, even if you're playing it while about other activities. Bowie's deep and sombre I'm Deranged, aptly followed by the artsy Reznor snipet, Videodrones Questions and The Perfect Drug, set a strange mood of a kind of insecure, inadequate hope or clinging positive energy in a distinctly dark and unknown zone.
From here on, the album spaces a selection of industrial tracks between carefully selected and varied jazz songs without ever losing continuity. The mood isn't static or generic as to produce the same feeling all the way through (as in The Matrix soundtrack) - instead it drifts across fear, unease, and occasionally a kind of hysteric, hypermanic joy, as if desensitized or driven mad by the enclosing depth of the rest of the album.
For those who aren't too great fans of NIN, Smashing Pumpkins or Manson, their respective tracks on the album distance themselves from any kind of stereotype or general style attributed to the creators. Rammstein may still not be a particularly good addition in my mind, but it would seem that the other more recent contributors all put in decidedly different and appropriate material.

I originally bought the album because of NIN's "The Perfect Drug" too. But I have to say, the entire album blew me away.
First, 2 of my favourite bands are on their, Rammstein and NIN, and after finding out that the album was put together by Trent Reznor was the icing on the cake.
I won't go into too much detail about the tracks because they are all just brilliant, but I have to say that the ones that stood out to me are Rammstein's. Heirate Mich and Rammstein, 2 gruesome but gorgeous songs that make perfect sense on this album. Rammstein are so dramatic both lyrically and visually, and they really make this soundtrack more brilliant.
But also the way that it has been made - the selection of songs is just genius, each one is different, so you are ultimately kept on your toes and your heart is kept racing throughout listening, Trent Reznor has this eye for choosing the best, he is just one of music's greatest musicians.
Myself, not being into soundtracks, I have to say I have been converted and I would definitely recommend this soundtrack to anyone, both lovers of the film and lovers of music. However, with Marilyn Manson, Rammstein and NIN all on one album, it certainly leans to a more industrial fan if you are just after the music, perfect for me then!
But, it is definitely worth while if you love the film, if you are just trying to get hold of the Perfect Drug, if you want to get some of MM's covers, or if you love Rammstein. This soundtrack is just perfect.

Quite fabulously eclectic soundtrack, to a really great movie, which more than holds its own as an individual piece of work. This one is worth having if only for the reminder of "I'm Deranged", as it plays against that brilliant opening sequence of "Lost Highway". However, this is a soundtrack which is so very, very much more than just that one track. Encompassing more musical styles than one could imagine. The sort of thing to listen to when you're out on the road, late at night. Except it might just end up by scaring you to death, by thinking that you're stuck in a David Lynch film!

A key soundtrack album to oblique Lynch classic.
'Lost Highway' (the film) is rather perplexing & came in for a lot of criticism that I think is partly warranted. Read more

With Trent Reznor as producer, what more is there to say?
Being a big NIN fan myself, I decided to drift from focussing on the band itself and delging into the world of Trent Reznor as an individual. Read more
