Summary: Good soundtrack with few weak spots.
Comment: I really like the Dee Snider solo track on here, along with most other songs, with few exceptions. Inconclusion (Dee Snider solo track) is great, and is a really good intro to the disk (and the movie, too)...
Not so much with Crisis' version of "Captain Howdy" but I'm a TS fan, so I think the original would have been better. The rest of the tunes are well worth listening to if this is your type of movie. Pick it up if you can find it, and hopefully we'll get to see Strangeland 2 in our lifetimes!

Summary: More like a sampler than a soundtrack
Comment: Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider put together a horror movie with mixed results, and the film's soundtrack is no exception. Combining more newer material from older bands and the at the time "up and coming" (now look them up under washed up) nu-metal bands, this soundtrack feels more like a sampler, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Dee Snider's moody "Inconclusion" is surprisingly good, while Pantera's "Where You Come From" (from their live album) and Anthrax's "P-N-V" are standout newer tracks from two legendary bands. Other standout cuts include Sevendust's "Breathe", Snot's "Absent", and a reunited Twisted Sister's "Heroes are Hard to Find", but the cuts from Kid Rock, Soulfly, Bile, and (hed)pe are nothing special. Also, of all the Megadeth songs, why "A Secret Place"? I can think of so many other songs by them that would have better suited this soundtrack. All in all, despite it's flaws, the Strangeland soundtrack is an above average metal collection.

Summary: excellent soundtrack
Comment: this soundtrack is among the best compilations i own. actually almost every song is very good on here (exception: the twisted sister track and kid rock). it is put together excellent out of great old metal bands and some nu metal stuff. the highlights are the opening track by former twisted sister vocalist dee snider, breathe by sevendust (in my opinion one of their best songs), p&v by anthrax (a nice old-style metal song), absent by snot (their last and one of their best songs. probably the best on here) and last but not least marmalade by system of a down. the previous released stuff on here (soulfly - eye for an eye. (hed)p.e. - serpent boy, coal chamber - not living and so on) is pretty good too

Summary: Best soundtrack EVER
Comment: Dee Snider picked one hell of a lineup for this soundtrack. Almost ever single track is good, excluding Megadeth, Kid Rock (the WORST track, and it's not even cause I dont like Kid Rock, it's just BAD), and Crisis. Sevendust's "Breathe" is a great track, and Sevendust fan should own this because it is one of their best songs. The Pantera track is awesome, but if you own the Pantera live album, then you already have this track. The rest of the tracks are all good, but the high point is definetly Snot's "Absent". Not only is it the best track on the album, but it even beats out most of the stuff on "Get Some". While it is sad that Snot is no longer together (R.I.P. Lynn Strait), there couldn't have been a better track for them to go out on. Every Snot fan should own this because of that song. Overall, I highly recommend this cd, because all fans of metal, old and new, can find something they like on here.

Editorial Reviews:
|
Old- and new-school metalheads unite on this 18-track soundtrack to Dee Snider's film. The best songs here come from the vets. Snider's track with Anton Sanko, "Inconclusion," is dark, Tool-influenced music; it's well-executed and far removed from the Twisted Sister frontman's roots. Megadeth's engaging, Indian-influenced "A Secret Place" and Anthrax's grooving "P-N-V" also rock with energy and melody. But there are some surprises from the new generation of heavy rockers: System of a Down deliver the amusingly tongue-in-cheek, retro-Goth "Marmalade," while the ever-annoying industrial group Bile offer the appropriately sleazy and somewhat catchy electro-rock assault "In League." Twisted Sister themselves reunite for "Heroes Are Hard to Find," an amiable anthem delivered in their classic '80s style. There are also two curious Twisted covers provided by dayinthelife... and Crisis, each group handling one half of the two-part epic "Horror-Teria," the tune from Sister's Stay Hungry that inspired this horror flick. Overall, it's a very mixed bag, but the Snider and Twisted originals are the attraction here, with a few other tracks being pretty decent. --Bryan Reesman
