Transformers - Revenge Of The Fallen Soundtrack (2009)

Artist: Various
Label: Reprise Records
Album Type: Soundtrack
Released: June 23, 2009





The Orb's Take:
Decent soundtrack, not worth it for 2 new releases.

Album Review:
With this soundtrack you get new songs from "Linkin Park", "The Used", and "Cavo" as well as songs from "Green Day", "Staind", "The Fray", "Taking Back Sunday", and "Avenged Sevenfold". It was refreshing to hear a great new track from "Linkin Park", solid through and through, hopefully giving us a taste of what is to come on their new album that might be released in late 2009. The most surprising track on this soundtrack was "The Used" covering the "Talking Heads" ("Burning Down The House") that was a completely different sound from the original, but in a good way. The other artist put out great tracks as well, but they are all songs you have heard if you have all of their latest albums. My advice to you would be to download the singles on itunes instead of buying the whole soundtrack. This is just something that produced a couple of new songs to get you amped up for what looks to be a great movie. It would have been a better soundtrack if it would have produced brand new tracks from all the bands.

What to Listen to: "Burning Down The House", "New Divide"
