Product Description
CD Description
The cover of 2004's politically minded FUTURE SOUNDTRACK FOR AMERICA reminds potential buyers that profits from the disc's sales will be donated to "progressive" organisations. A more fitting word could not have been chosen for this compilation, as the album serves as a broad survey of various genres in forward-thinking American music. Though there is a clear alternative-rock focus here, the disc also touches upon everything from No Depression music (Laura Cantrell, Old 97's) to hip-hop (Will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas).
Aside from the artists' altruistic motives, the common thread is that the tracks included are all rare or unreleased. Though obscure live cuts sit beside covers and exclusive recordings,the disc never sounds thrown together. In fact, the varietyrepresented here only reinforces the collection's intentionally wide appeal. Highlights include OK Go's spot-on cover of the Zombies' ODESSEY AND ORACLE classic "This Will Be Our Year", Tom Waits's melancholy "Day After Tomorrow", and the late Elliott Smith's wonderfully ramshackle "A Distorted Reality Is Now a Necessity to Be Free".
