I loved the movie and was both so taken and intrigued by the music featured in the Film that I dashed out to get the soundtrack and years later it remains one of my favorite CDs filled with obscure songs that work so well and sound great! Primarily a rock CD with a gothic, industrial edge, The Crow features 14 soundtracks from a random and eclectic selection of artists! Beginning with Burn by the Cure....I was amazed and enlivened by this song in the movie, and it was by far my motivating factor in purchasing this CD. Having not been impressed by the Cure in recent years....for me this was their WOW song, which worked perfectly with the context of the film, and gave me renewed interest in their work! Stone Temple Pilots deliver an almost blues inspired track with Big Empty, whereas Nine Inch Nails stick to their trademark industrial sound, which is always fresh and hard hitting with Dead Souls, Rage Against the Machine plays with sounds on their track Darkness, parts of which depart slightly from their traditional angst. Rollins Band deliver a hard hitting, powerful track with Ghost Rider - probably one of my favorite Rollins tracks, and Helmet deliver their typical style with an almost tuneless track to powerful music that is an effective combination!! I was not familiar with the band For love Not Lisa, but certainly appreciated Slip Side Melting; and loved the change of direction on the compilation brought about by Jesus and Mary Chain - Snakerider. The CD certainly builds up, with tracks getting progressively heavier and more industrial, then slowing down with Medicine and finally Jane Sidberry's haunting "Can't rain all the time" which correlates to a line used in the movie and ends the Cd with a gentle, soft melody which speaks to viewers of this film! If you like industrial and new wave metal and are a fan of The Crow, this is a top choice and one of my personal favorite soundtracks of all time!Read full review
This soundtrack is the only one I've ever found worth buying. If you like the movie, you probably already know that the music is well suited to the genre of flick that it is. One of my favorite albums of all time, it's packed with everything from slow music that makes your soul bleed a little, to furious punching rhythms that make you want to destroy!! All in all, I find it to be a fitting tribute to Bruce Lee's son, Brandon, who died part of the way through filming (conspiracy theories abounded). The movie blew me away when it was released, and even today I can make it past the, then astounding, now somewhat cheapened special effects to enjoy one of the truly great movies of my time. The soundtrack is different only in the regard that good music never dies; and every time I listen, it feels like I catch a glimpse (I hope) into the soul of a superstar who died far too young! RIP Brandon Lee - know you've enriched my life!!!!Read full review
I recently made a "Top Ten Albums I've Experienced In My Lifetime" list. This was one of the ten. This album, even though it is a soundtrack, has pulled together some of the best talents from the eighties to the mid-nighties to make one of the most eclectic, yet themeatically accurate depictions of a story that was seriously underrated. The CD boasts a good balance of old school goth with newer goth and alt rock that begs to be played again, again, and again.
Great feel as a whole, especially for a soundtrack. Captures the gothic highs of the early 90s, before it was played out by Spencer's and millennial 15 year olds.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
A good mix of early '90s grunge, goth, and metal that fits the aesthetic and atmosphere of the 1994 film "The Crow". Great soundtrack to a great movie.
