Customer Reviews:

One of the best motion picture soundtracks ever!.......2006-10-09

I loved the original SAW movie and enjoyed the music score and the atmosphere the music throughout the movie portrayed. This album release is a monumental record produced and mixed by Charlie Clouser (Ex N-I-N). There is not a song on this album that is bad or not worth being on this release.

'Sturm' is a song created by Front Line Assembly released specifically for this movie and the song is a perfect opener. The song is purely industrial and features the best of what FLA offers, the driving industrial beat with hard hitting nasal base lyrics.

'Bite The Hand that Bleeds' is a softer industraial/dark theme song by the kings of future metal - Fear Factory who I am a big fan of. In the DVD's special features, this song came with its own music video taking bits from the actual movie.

The other bands in this album I have not heard of but the songs were good, some more harder in sounding than others but worth the listen. What was the winning part to this album was the movie score by Charlie Clouser.

I have to agree with other prior reveiwers are say the best two songs of this album are 'Hello Zepp' and 'Zepp Overture'. Both songs are genious and great sounding. I have Hello Zepp on a website entry page song. It is one of the best songs I have ever listened to.

I assure anyone who is a fan of Saw, you will enjoy this album immensely and take alot out of it. I am simply in awe of this block-buster album.

Atmosphere........2005-12-14

What makes this album worth 5 stars? That may be one of the questions you find yourself asking. I'll tell you why. During the commentary for the Saw dvd Leigh Whannell (who played Adam and wrote the movie) said he felt the movie had a gritty, muddy and rusty feel to it. I agree. So, he wanted to find somebody to do a score and bands that would give off that feel. Charlie Clouser (ex-nin) does a wonderful job here. So, he brings in bands such as Fear Factory and Pitbull Daycare (I have spoken with their drummer, he is a really nice guy.) I prefer Black Metal and Death Metal over industrial. However, I love this soundtrack. I have not been able to take it out of my walkman since getting it. First, the atmosphere Charlie Clouser gives off, is right on the money and I am highly impressed. Also, I am not the biggest fan of Fear Factory but their song is quite good as well. However, my favorite song is "Hello Zepp" the epic song, in while the final few minutes (most shocking as well)of the movie are played out. That song is worth the money alone. So, even though you may not enjoy industrial, this is still worth giving a try. Enjoy

5 stars for the Score by Clouser.......2005-10-01

I bought this album for the score of the movie, not the bands featured on the album. Charlie Clouser did a great job, a chilling and awesome score. My favorite track is "hello zep" which was my main motivation of getting this album. Some of the band tracks here are actually pretty good, but when it comes to a soundtrack album, I prefer the score. Good album overall. Can't wait for the Saw 2 soundtrack.

Clouser's score= 4 stars. Everything else= 1 star. .......2005-09-19

I'm kinda divided with this disk-I really, really liked the score itself, that is the stuff performed by Charlie Clouser, especially the effectively bleak "Hello Adam" and the great "Hello Zepp" and "Zepp Overature". Unfortunately, the heavy metal/rock/whatever--*vomits*. I personally hate that type of music. The disk is definitely worth the price, but just be aware that there are some really awful metal tracks amongst the otherwise very good score.

Sweeeeeeet.......2005-05-18

OKay. I was shocked that only 8 other people had reviewed this great soundtrack. But that's besides the point. Charlie Clouser did a fine job with the original score, especially "Hello, Zepp" and "Zepp Overature". The tracks by the bands were good, some were definately better than others. "You Make Me Feel So Dead" by Pitbull Daycare is by far my favorite track and "Wonderful World" by the Psycho Pumps is equally awsome. "Bite the Hand That Bleeds" by Fear Factory SUCKS ASS!!!! I was extremely dissapointed when that was the only video on the DVD. Oh well, I'm also dissapointed that I can't for the life of me find anything else on the Psycho Pumps. It's as if they only did this one song for this album. That's kinda sad if it's true. Anyway, if you were a fan of the film, get this.

Sing Girls!.......2006-05-17

Four young women from NYC gave us some slamming ass songs with this debut. Everything is hot! I enjoy every song on this. So how come we don't hear from them anymore? Why Can't You Come Home is a dime song and it still sounds as good as the day it came out. Get This! U Won't be sorry! Grade: A-

Still In Love.......2006-01-14

Papa-san (my father) bought me the cassette recording of Ex-Girlfriend's "X Marks The Spot" when I was still in middle school. I loved it then, and I'm still in love with it now. Though I'm a young adult *cough*, I still enjoy listening to these songs. Their harmonies were beautiful, and I can't (for the love of chocolate) understand why they're no longer around.

Though some may think of it as childish, I believe it has a bit of quirkiness as well. Some ballads, some dance tunes. All enhance their vocals and range. With such selections as "You (You're The One For Me)", and "Why Can't You Come Home" that made it to the charts and "With All My Heart", "I Found That Guy", and "I Love My Man" that never made it to the charts, you can't possibly go wrong with this CD!!

I haven't purchased the CD... but I still have my cassette, and I'm so thankful that this didn't get lost in the process of growing up, going off to college, and moving back home. Yes, I listened to it as a child, but even as a woman, it still speaks volumes. This is one timeless treasure that I plan on keeping with me for the rest of my life.

Why Can't You Come Home.......2004-02-20

"Why Can't You Come Home" was a fun, catchy tune. Aisde from that, nothing that X-Girlfriend did was that memorable. Perhaps due to promotion, or lack of it. My suggestion is to buy the CD for "Why Can't You Come Home", as you aren't going to find it elsewhere. But don't expect much else from the CD.

Great Voices.......2003-09-07

Ex-Girlfriend had the benefit of working with FULL FORCE (LISA LISA AND CULT JAM, CHERYL "PEPSII" RILEY) on their debut. After supplying luscious background vocals for Jasmine Guy on her debut single "Try me" the group dropped their 1st release "X MARKS THE SPOT".

The single "Why can't you come home?" was a hit. Another single "YOU" hit the top 40. This cd mixes it up pretty good with up-tempo dance and r&b cuts. "What i would do to you" and "Fellas in the area" are all prime early 90's r&b, with the latter showing the new york natives spitting rhymes on the mic about their fellas of choice.

The ballads show their harmonies to be in good form. "With all my heart" is a song of teenage angst about the amount of love a girl has for her boyfriend. Then "I love my man" is from the woman's point of view. Lead singer Stacey tears into this song and has a powerful voice with alot of range. She is similar to an adult STACEY LATTISAW (they even have the same name...lol). This is a good piece of 90's girl group r&b. If you can find it...Buy it!

I love this albulm.......2003-05-23

It is a great album with alot of smooth groves on it. Check it out you will love it.
