[.ca] Queen of the Damned

From Amazon.com:
Befitting the film's hip goth vibe, its accompanying soundtrack is suitably dark and sexy, with a strong mix of new songs and nü-metal hits. In an interesting move, Korn frontman Jonathan Davis collaborated with composer (and former Oingo Boingo keyboardist) Richard Gibbs on 5 of the CD's 14 tracks, though Davis doesn't sing his songs. Instead, taking those duties are Static-X's Wayne Static on "Not Meant for Me," Disturbed's David Draiman on "Forsaken," Linkin Park's Chester Bennington on "System," Marilyn Manson on "Redeemer," and Orgy's Jay Gordon on "Slept So Long." Most of the Davis-Gibbs collaborations are akin to more atmospheric, dramatic Korn tunes, lent a distinctive personality by each singer, with Manson's being the creepiest-coolest and most aggressive entry. While these adroit alliances make the soundtrack a must-have for each of the band's fans (not to mention the Korn faithful), the previously released cuts are also winners. Deftones' creepy "Change," Papa Roach's angry "Dead Cell," and Disturbed's memorable rage "Down with the Sickness"--in addition to lesser-known, but sinister and titillating offerings from Godhead, Kidney Thieves, Earshot, Tricky, and others--are all worth the price of admission to this "damned" stellar soundtrack. --Katherine Turman

BEST SOUNDTRACK EVER!!!!:
ok this is definitely the cd you goth/hard rockers out there!!!! man, i love this cd!!!! personally, i would rather listen to this cd the rest of my life than... i can't think of something to go with that but YEAH!!!!!!! static-x, chester bennington, disturbed, all of the bands you rockers love.... and the kidney thieves!!! ALWAYS love them... my favorites were "redeemer", "before i'm dead", "forsaken", "system"..... dude, they were all my favorites. someone could definitely listen to this cd when you're just down right pissed off or just to get pumped up for whatever reason! i believe this is truly the BEST SOUNDTRACK EVER!!!!!! definitely.

This soundtrack is fantastic!!:
I just recently bought the Queen of the Damned soundtrack. A little late in the game since the movie came out in 2002! I seen the movie when it came out and loved the music... it was so fitting. Since then I have watched the movie again a few more times and I knew I just had to have the soundtrack!! The songs just stuck in my head.. full of passion, mysterious, powerful, dark and sexy. I know the movie didn't get alot of great reviews, but I personally liked the movie and I think the soundtrack topped it all off! I would definitely recommend this soundtrack... I absolutely love it and am already addicted to listening to it!

Listening to it for two years, still not sick of it.:
One of the top five best CDs I own. Great for working out. Great for brooding. Great for just jamming out and enjoying. Captures the movie. Great for vampire and goth lovers, as well as alt music fans.

I wasn't into this type of music:
But my brother bought this CD for me because he knew Aaliyah wasn in the movie... she was a singer, he though she was on the soundtrack. I gave it a listen and fell in love immediately. Not only with this soundtrack but the entire genre. This is one of the best soundtracks ever created. I have to say I am utterly satisfied. This is a must have

Great but lacks Jon Davis's vocals..:
This soundtrack is amongst one of the best ever made in existance, the only thing that this lacks, is the vocals of Jonathan Davis doing his own songs. He couldn't do his own songs for this soundtrack due to record label differences. His group Korn is on Sony Records while this soundtrack was made on Warner Brothers Records. Because of these differences, even though Jonathan Davis wrote 5 of the songs for this soundtrack and even performed them himself in the movie, he couldn't perform them on this soundtrack. I myself have the Jonathan Davis versions of his songs, all in great quality, and 4/5 of them are studioized versions. If you want these ULTRA RARE versions, add me at mansonchyld@hotmail.com to MSN messenger. If you don't have messenger, sucks for you, I can't email songs, they're too big to send. So, if you have MSN instant messenger and want these songs, simply add me and you shall recieve them for free, those whom miss out....i'm sorry, these are all really great versions, and super rare as they are not on any cd in existance and probably never will be.
