REVIEW

So what music do the young punks who helped propel the SOAP into the internet pop culture sensation that it is listen to? The album producers probably recognized that the phenomenon was partly buoyed by the kitschy quirky irrelevance that permeates the young punk culture nowadays and they went all out to appease the target crowd (think about two million Paul Twohills).

Producer Jason Linn and the folks working on the soundtrack provided just the right answer with a smart collection of dance/remix and emopunk tracks, replete with some M18 lines from the movie itself. The album got on to a great start with the riotously infectious Snakes on a Plane (Bring It), a collaboration by groups involved in the soundtrack and didn’t let up with tracks by the Moonman-winning Panic! At The Disco, The Academy Is … and Fall Out Boy. Serious, I still cannot get the first track out of my head and the subsequent tracks were rock solid.

The album leveled off some seven tracks in, but was rescued by an audacious serving of acoustic emo slow rock, reggae and laidback surfer dude music. The sheer impudence of the collection even made the movie score at the end of the soundtrack a thorough mood dampener.

Really, if this uncle likes the soundtrack, then it must be solid gold.
