Out Cold
The well known (Foo Fighters), barely known (Jack Johnson), and virtually unknown (Andrew WK) are all represented to fine effect on this predominantly modern-rock-leaning dozen-song soundtrack. As befitting the flick's snowboard theme, most of the cool cuts are by pop-punky sporty faves such as Lit (whose edgy and melodic "Lipstick and Bruises" is the single), Eve 6 (with a dynamic new song, "Anytime"), and the Foo Fighters, who turn in a reworking of a B-side in "Win or Lose. " A couple of great songs (albeit odd choices for a teen-oriented soundtrack, especially when sharing space with the hip-hop Planet Asia and Will. I. Am) are the James Gang's 1977 hit, the sexy, bluesy rock romp "Funk No. 49, " and the new but guitar-driven, classic-rock-oriented "Green Light Girl, " a forceful offering from Doyle Bramhall II & Smokestack. British solo artist Andrew WK turns in an irresistible, ultra-energetic, retro, almost "glam" power-pop tune in "She Is Beautiful, " while mellower moments from Jimmy Eat World and Jack Johnson aren't as compelling. Ultimately, if Out Cold is a slightly schizophrenic compilation of mostly previously released cuts, it's still a worthwhile collection for open-minded listeners. --Katherine Turman Binding Audio CD.
