An excellent hybrid of great '80's songs with a modern edge! December 9, 2001 14 out of 15 found this review helpful
Although I was a kid throughout the 80's, I have always found that period of music to be uniquely upbeat and fun. In recent years, however, my tastes have tilted heavily towards hard rock and metal, such as Static-X, Kittie, and Limp Bizkit. Regardless of your tastes, I would highly recommend this soundtrack, which is a compilation of some of the best 80's tunes redone by current metal and hard rock bands. I particularly like Marilyn Manson's remake of "Tainted Love", which is one of the heaviest of the songs, but Goldfinger's cover of "99 Red Balloons" and Good Charlotte's great riffs on "If You Leave" are very catchy, fun and lively! I bought this CD just yesterday and it has quickly become one of the favorites in my collection.. great for parties as well!
Killing the eighties August 15, 2003 12 out of 27 found this review helpful
It's been standard practice for some time for pop soundtracks to include new versions of older hits. Since NOT ANOTHER TEEN MOVIE was largely a spoof of films of the eighties, it's appropriate that the soundtrack reference the music of same.
It seems the music is also largely a spoof, and an unfunny one at that. Most of these remakes will horrify anyone who grew up with these songs. A disappointingly narrow selection of corporate alternative bands put their generic, grungy stamp on almost a dozen classic new wave tracks, completely obliterating any integrity they once had. These artists clearly don't understand the original music at all. The two Depeche Mode covers are at least listenable but they are boring.
There are exactly two cuts worth hearing on this album, and only one of them is new. Marilyn Manson rejuvenates Soft Cell's "Tainted Love" and Orgy's cover of "Blue Monday" is even better than New Order's original. The latter previously appeared on Orgy's own debut album, so you probably already have it. That leaves one reason to own this CD. I'd recommend just getting the movie DVD. It's not great, but it's moderately entertaining, and at least then you'll have the "Tainted Love" video.
Soundtrack - Not Another Teen Movie Review April 18, 2002 11 out of 11 found this review helpful
Is there one thing that makes this album rock? Yes, and it is called track number one. To hear Marilyn Manson's cover on "Tainted Love" is worth the price of this CD. Sure you could use Kazaa or some other P2P device to download the track, but while the Manson track is what you paid for, the rest of the CD comes along as a bonus, and a worthy one at that.While most of the tracks have appeared else where, or have been around a while "The Metro" by System of a Down appeared on the Dracula 2000 Soundtrack, and Orgy's rendition of "Blue Monday" appeared on their excellent Candyass disc, this is the first time all of these tracks have been together, legally. While the Smashing Pumpkin's cover of "Never Let Me Down Again" comes up strangely disappointing, the rest of the tracks on the disc stand out as well known 80s songs, covered and re-mastered by some of today's hottest names in rock. The disc never really fails to disappoint, and the 4 out of 5 rating is only because a great many of these tracks have appeared elsewhere, are aren't dramatically new. It seems as though the producers of this album would have rather used old recordings from these bands, than have some new ones recorded. While Mest does make the cut on the CD, I would have liked to seen some more punk bands (since we know they do the best covers) of the likes of New Found Glory, Offspring, and maybe sprinkle in some Green Day for added flavor. All in all, superior disc, and one of the best sound tracks in years. -Erich Becker has 98 Red Balloons, one popped.
Where are the really good songs?? August 7, 2005 9 out of 11 found this review helpful
I have personally counted every song used in Not Another Teen Movie in the credits, and there were 42 songs throughout the entire movie. Answer this for me: WHY ARE THERE ONLY TWELVE SONGS??????!!!!!!?!?!! About two of these songs are ALRIGHT, but it makes me mad that they didn't use some of the better songs, like the remix of " Don't You Forget About Me " and the song " Prom Tonight ". Don't buy this CD unless you like being disappointed.
Not Another Offers A Few Good Covers January 1, 2002 7 out of 12 found this review helpful
From a movie that is surely as bad as it looks, the soundtrack is the exact opposite. All covers, theres pretty much something for everyone. Of course, Marilyn Manson's cover of "Tainted Love" is the star of the album. Manson seems to have a nack for covering songs with his eerie and irresistable polish. While it doesnt grab you by the gents like "Sweet Dreams" did, its still superb in its electro-otherworldliness. Smashing Pumpkins do Depeche Mode's "Never let Me Down Again" and its as good as the original; however this time stripping down the effects and relying on the words. Orgy is also on here doing "Blue Monday", which was a monster hit for the second time in 1998. Other appearances include System Of A Down and Good Charlotte. Well worth the purchase.
