Seems like salvation

"An eclectic lineup for a soundtrack indeed (if you want an even more eclectic lineup check out The Crow: City of Angels soundtrack), The Crow: Salvation soundtrack will keep you interested for a while, but it will wear thin rather soon. Filter and Rob Zombie continue the contest of "how many soundtracks can we be on" with remixes of "The Best Things" and (yet another remix) "Living Dead Girl" respectively, while Kid Rock offers a surprisingly solid song entitled "Warm Winter". Hole offers a cover of Bob Dylan's "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue", a solid track it is, but not as good as their cover of "Gold Dust Woman" from The Crow: City of Angels soundtrack. Static-X and Fear Factory's Burton C. Bell offer a cover of Ministry's "Burning Inside", which is good, but lacks the punch of the original. Stabbing Westward offers a remix of "Waking Up Beside You", but I think the original version would have been better suited for the movie's theme. Danzig's remix of "Belly of the Beast" entitled "Underbelly of the Beast" is a remix that actually works out rather well, and is in some respects better than the original. Other tracks from Days of the New, Pitchshifter, Monster Magnet, and New American Shame round out the package, but all in all this soundtrack is a mixed bag, but worth checking out nonetheless."
Gotta Love Those Pulsating Soundtracks

"Sometimes I feel like I'm one of six people who really liked this film. A major part of why I like it is this soundtrack. It's hard, driving, merciless rock fun."
