Anyone have some favorite soundtracks they want to recommend/suggest/discuss?

I'd probably go with "Reservoir Dogs", also hard to beat "Singles".

    It may seem silly, but the soundtrack to Austin Powers is really good.

    Once upon a time in the West, Donnie Darko, Fight Club and probably every single Tarantino soundtrack. I liked The Piano too for a while, but cannot listen to it any longer... Oh, and then there is a German movie called Sonnenallee, that soundtrack was awesome too. And Dirty Dancing!
    Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!

    Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is a really good, diverse one. Blanking on others right now.

    When I was in high school EVERYBODY had "The Crow" soundtrack, and it's a pretty good one. "The Big Lebowski" is also another good one. One movie that sucked hard but had a really good soundtrack was "Godzilla", the 1998 version. It has RATM, Foo Fighters, Wallflowers, Ben Folds Five, Green Day, Silverchair and Puff Daddy w/Jimmy Page.

    That's one of my favourite soundtracks! I love Lou Barlow and he's all over this one.

    The Brown Bunny (an obscure Vincent Gallo film) is a good one. It has 5 pretty cool John Frusciante songs that weren't actually in the film. I'd also recommend Babel, Lock Stock & 2 Smoking Barrels, Pulp Fiction, Natural Born Killers

    Spawn Soundtrack was amazing in its day. Heavy techno mixed with heavy rock music! I lost some brain cells banging my head to that cd.

    Singles is probably the best soundtrack out there. At least for this forum

    Some of my other favorites:

    Footloose
    Grease
    Cruel Intentions
    Pulp Fiction

    Vanilla Sky - eclectic mix of moody songs and forgotten classics. Helped me discover Sigur Ros and Mark Kozalek/Red House Painters.

    For hip-hop fans, I recommend Ghost Dog: Way of the Samurai. RZA created the film's score; the soundtrack album has those score tracks turned into full songs, with a variety of rappers and singers throughout the album.

    Pretty damn fine music supporting that classic animated flick.

    Aside from Devo's cover of "Working In The Coal Mine" (which isn't one of my favorite Devo tracks anyway) I'm not really feeling that one myself. It has a lot of artists I like on it, just not songs I like by them.

    Happy to see another Vanilla Sky fan. I love that record too. I was lucky to get the wax. :D

    Cheap Trick is really good on this album. Sammy Hagar was good too as well as Don Felder. Let's not forget about Blue Oyster Cult as well with Psychic Wars.

    Personally I'm not that big of a fan anymore, aside from "SOLAT" and "Would?". I only liked half the songs, some of which haven't aged well to my ears, others I just over-played through the years.
