"Needless censorship"

Bought this album only for the remix of "Judith". Censored? Why, yes, it is, but, couldn't you have mentioned that in the product description? "FAKE your God"? Please... Other songs are decent.
"A Unique and Eclectic Mix Worthy of Anyone's Collection"

Underworld was one of the more original vampire flicks out there, high on action backed by lush backgrounds and moody monologues by the heroes and villains alike. The Underworld soundtrack had a lot to live up to, and in my opinion it exceeded all my expectations; indeed, the only complaint I had was the sometimes jarring mix.
Every song on Underworld is either completely original or a rare mix/copy only available on the soundtrack itself. Nine Inch Nail's Danny Lohner (under the pseudonym 'Renholder') wrote many of the songs and worked with true rock A-Listers to create many of the better songs on this album; my personal favorite is "All of This Past" by Sarah Bettens (the sultry songstress of K's Choice fame), a haunting gothic melody that sends chills down the spine.
One of the most lauded of the new choices from Underworld is of course the epic "Bring Me the Disco King [Loner Mix]" by David Bowie, featuring John Frusciante of Red Hot Chili Peppers and Maynard James Keenan of Tool -- a haunting and beautiful song that features epic guitars and vocals. Other great rock/metal choices include The Damning Well ("Awakening"), Puscifer ("REV. 22:20"), A Perfect Circle ("Judith [Renholder Mix]" & "Weak and Powerless [Tilling My Own Grave Mix]"), and Finch ("Worms of the Earth").
Underworld crosses other genres, however; featuring soft ballads (such as "From a Shell" by Lisa Germano and "Suicide Note" by Johnette Napolitano) and electronica (such as the beautiful "Rocket Collecting" by Milla and the more techno "Optimissed" by Skinny Puppy), and even some original score pieces by Danny Lohner. For the most part, Underworld succeeds in creating a brooding, hard-driven atmosphere reminiscent of its subject matters' immortal struggles amidst a rainy, moonlit city.
My only complaint is the sometimes frenetic mixing; tracks 1 -- 6 fit together equally, but after that things seem to be thrown in happenstance. One of the most glaringly obvious choices was to put the screaming metal "Baby's First Coffin" song in between two soft ballads. Why? Also, the inclusion of "On the Lash" in between the soft piano ballad "From a Shell" and the aforementioned "All of This Past." These songs are like jarring notes in a good song, interrupting the listening experience and almost making one wince.
Despite this shortcoming, however, Underworld succeeds on two levels; the first, it is an amazing soundtrack that captures the subject matter and atmosphere of the film nearly perfectly. The second is as a new mix; Underworld features amazing songs often not available anywhere else that is a wondrous showcase of some truly great talents.
4 1/2 out of 5
"excellent, overall"

i think anyone who enjoyed the fragile era nin would enjoy the danny lohner songs here. he creates an atmosphere in the music he mixes and composes that it just feels so right. and if you're not a fan of instrumental, the david bowie track should get you. it has been one of the most beautiful songs I've heard lately and i can't stop listening to it. Why there isn't 5 stars going to this album is because of the random songs from less than awesome bands such as finch and dillinger escape plan, but overall a great album.
If you are looking for a good soundtrack -- this is not it. It was painful to move through the songs on the CD. Underworld Evolutions is excellent, try that one.
"Strong at first, then weaker"

There are some very good songs on this album at first, but throughout the rest of the cd it becomes kind of dull and boring. Big fans of the movie will tend to like this a lot more than me, who just bought it for the music. Pusicifier and the remix of their song is worth the $16 in itself.
