レビュー (Amazon)
This soundtrack's biggest selling points are the two new tracks by Camp Freddy, an all-star group made up of singer Scott Weiland, guitarist Dave Navarro, and drummer Scott Sorum. Camp Freddy's contributions are covers of well-known glam-muscle anthems--Cheap Trick’s "Surrender" and T. Rex’s "Twentieth Century Boy"--that don’t add that much to the originals. More fun are tunes by less-heralded bands such as Sweden’s Teddybears and their unspeakably catchy "Cobrastyle;" the Red Jumpsuit Apparatus's melodic pop-punk "Face Down;" and Hard Fi's triumphant "Hard to Beat" that's driven by the kind of mammoth dance-floor-friendly bassline that’s rare in a rock track. While the majority of the album is made up of contemporary songs, nostalgic tracks pop up as well--take REO Speedwagon’s grandiose, wave-your-lighter "Can’t Fight This Feeling" for instance. The CD also includes excerpts from the score by John Swihart (Napoleon Dynamite) that goes from funky to Devo-like eccentric, and is quirkier overall than the rest of the soundtrack. --Elisabeth Vincentelli
