Soundtrack - Snakes on a Plane: The Album (2006)

Tomado de una ridícula película de terror Snakes on a Plane toma diferentes canciones que ni siquiera aparecen en la película, incluso los temas son remixes de entre una mezcla de diferentes géneros entre los cuales están el Emo/Punk/Pop con tintes de Rap a la buena medida, Mención aparte merece que entre los cortes de las canciones podemos encontrar las clásicas frases por parte del protagonista Samuel L. Jackson como lo es la infame "That's it! I have had it with these muthaf*ckin' snakes on this muthaf*ckin' plane!" esta colección de canciones hacen pensar si en realidad se trata de un álbum soundtrack o si es en realidad es un disco de Ministry of Sound, claro en completa decadencia, a la cabeza de serie ponen a Cobra Starship/Gym Class Heroes/The Academy Is.../The Sounds con su canción Emo/Pop que lo más gracioso es que es ridícula, pero pegadiza Snakes on a Plane (Bring It) dando a demostrar su excelente naturaleza aleatoria para formar un álbum, sin embargo no todo es pena hay temas que levantan la mano para incluso convertirse en buenos remixes incluso mejor que su versión original como son los casos de The Bronx y su Around the Horn [Louis XIV Remix] y Jack's Mannequin con Bruised [Remix], como sea una extraordinaria manera de lavarse las manos o recomponer camino de lo que fue una película que paso sin pena ni gloria y que una inyección de Raggae por parte de Michael Franti hace despabilar un poco la incógnita si en verdad es un álbum que debe ser desechado o agregado a una buena compilación.

Soundtrack - Transformers: The Movie [2007 Live Action]

Cinta dirigida por el Director Michael Bay que conto con un gran presupuesto, tomando a dibujos animados de los años 80’s así mismo convirtiéndose en figuras de acción de una famosa compañía de juguetes convirtiéndose en toda una sensación par los niños y en especial para ser n regalo perfecto en navidad, El Soundtrack toma una ruta independiente, una compilación de canciones que, o bien aparecen en la película durante unos segundos o no lo hacen en ella. Transformers: The Movie presenta a HIM, Taking Back Sunday y The Used, todos ellos están tomando la carretera a la zona de peligro de Kenny Loggins con todos estos "música inspirada por" colecciones. Sólo los Goo Goo Dolls con su marca de Tempo Balda Pop son capaces de penetrar la oscuridad Alt-Metal/Post-Grunge, haciendo que las batallas encarnadas protagonizadas por estos gigantes Robot tengan un toque melodramático para así convertirse en la inspiración de muchos y dejando un lema “Before It's Too Late” para así encontrar nuevas legiones de seguidores de esta excelente película.

Armor for Sleep - What to Do When You Are Dead (2005)

From the melodic, punk-charged opening anthem, "Car Underwater" to the somber, moody finale, "The End of a Fraud," Armor for Sleep's second album ups the punk/emo ante with fabulously crafted songs and a desire to challenge the norms of a movement that has grown increasingly stale. With the aforementioned parting shot, brainchild Ben Jorgensen goes dark, flirting with his inner Aaron Lewis. That's hardly to say that AFS is headed into Staind territory, as the Thursday-like "Remember to Feel Real" attests, but the group's willingness to work with producer Machine, a veteran of projects with Clutch, White Zombie and Lamb of God was a risk that paid off. From the no nonsense blast of "The Truth About Heaven" to the urgent appeal of "Awkward Last Words" it's apparent that this destined-to-be-huge New Jersey quartet (which also counts guitarist P.J. DeCicco bassist Anthony DilOnno and kitman Nash Breen) is the sum of its parts.

Armor for Sleep - Dream to Make Believe (2003)

Armor for Sleep's emotionally charged lyrics, energetic live shows, and D.I.Y. work ethic have won the New Jersey-based quartet a loyal fan base. Singer/songwriter/guitar player Ben Jorgensen began writing songs the summer before his freshman year at college, and recorded two of them at a local studio. Weary of playing all of the instruments himself, the self-admitted recluse found kindred spirits in bassist Anthony Dilonno and cousins Nash Breen (drums) and P.J. DeCicco (guitar). Buzz for the newly minted band grew quickly, and by the summer of 2002, Armor for Sleep found themselves in California recording their debut, Dream to Make Believe. Released on Equal Vision Records in June 2003, the record secured the band a solid spot in the growing emo-pop scene, leading to some choice shows with bands like Taking Back Sunday, Piebald, and Thursday. In 2005, after successfully headlining its own U.S. tour, the band released What to Do When You Are Dead, a loosely related conceptual album dealing with life and death that showcased the group's growth into a heavier and darker machine. The DVD A Comprehensive Guide to Touring was issued near the year's end, and Armor for Sleep next signed on to the Sire roster in April 2006. The following year, "End of the World" was included on the soundtrack for Transformers: The Movie, and the group released a new album, Smile for Them.
