i bought this soundtrack as soon as it was out coz offspring were on it, and didn't really listen to the other songs on the cd so much. but this week i've been listening to it again and i've realised just how good it is. i have a pretty wide range of musical tastes, but there is something for everyone on this cd. mainly pop-punk/rock kinda songs, but if you like one of the songs on the cd. buy it and u won't be dissapointed. its a great film too! :D

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, 22 Mar 2005

By A Customer

The film has an awesome soundtrack-no question. But this album gets tired very quickly. Phantom Planet's California is the most over-played song of the century and 'Butterfly' by Crazy Town was only really in the film for a joke. It has repetetive beat and gets boring quick. The hilights are 'Shadow Stabbing' by Cake (which is used in the opening credits), which has a killer bass-line, although again tires quickly, and 'Under the Tracks' by Creeper Lagoon which is very mellow and has the longest shelf life of any song on the album. The biggest disappointment is 'Story of my Life' by Social Distortion which is one of the reasons I bought the album. It sounds awesome in the film (played just after Lorny dies in the wipe-out) but for some insane reason, they decided to make it a live version, which is sadly weak, and they should really stick to recordings! However, this album is worth buying if you liked the tracks in the film.

4.0 out of 5 stars umm yeah, 30 Jan 2002

By A Customer

to start with i heard this album for the main reason that offspring's new song was on there. hey, it's not as good as the old stuff but thats something alot of offspring fans find themselves saying. the best yrs were the 'smash' and 'ixnay' years.......but where have they gon now? oh well.....
Lit also are brilliant. they weren't that widely known until their songs were used on american pie 2. i have 2 recommend their old albums: tripping the light fantastic and a place in the sun. absolute class. the only real bad point of the alubm is crazy town - not the most talented of bands. the rest of the music is great rock music but then you get to this piece of........
another classic from the foo fighters and phantom planet are great. i would recommend this album to everyone. of course, the film isn't released yet. i haven't seen it but i heard this CD over in the US. it's good. buy it!! that's all folks............charliex

Go for the IMPORT, rather than the lesser UK release of this soundtrack, because you gain an extra CD, with four new artists from good ole USA included. Read more
