Surprisingly entertaining choices May 15, 2009 Considering the film was such a B-grade crowd-pleaser (nothing wrong with that), with its tongue set firmly in its cheek, it was refreshing to have an inspired list of tracks accompanying the movie that transfer into a movie soundtrack compilation worth having.

One Song Jan 14, 2008 Purchased for litereally ONE song that I can't find elsewhere...the rest of the CD isn't that good.
Revisiting the Godzilla Soundtrack Sep 08, 2007 The film "Godzilla" from the year 1998 seemed to catch some mixed reviews, but in looking back at the soundtrack that accompanied the film, it is safe to say it is still a hit to this day. For modern rock enthusiasts, recognizable bands will be seen with the likes of Rage against the Machine, Fuel and the Foo Fighters, while the Wallflowers and Ben Folds Five are now distant memories.
Regardless, the contributions throughout the soundtrack for the Godzilla movie are still very poignant. There is an incredible kinetic energy that comes through with P. Diddy and former Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy page on the tune "Come with me", while another solid tune being Days of the New with the whiskey acoustics of "Running Knees". Green Day and 90s grunge troopers Silverchair also have songs featured on the soundtrack, which rounds out with a couple of scores from the film.

Good soundtrack, GREAT movie Jun 13, 2007 I can't believe how stupid people are, when this movie came out people whined about it for various reasons. Some said well it doesn't look like the old Godzilla, ok it would have been nice but they set out for it to look more like a lizard not a man in a costume, and this is easily better than any corny Japanese Godzilla movies, which I enjoy as well but let's be realistic. As far as the Soundtrack it's good but not great, more around 3 1/2 stars but since some idiots on here reviewed the movie not the soundtrack it deserves more than 3 stars. Good tracks by Fuel, Green Day, Days of the New and others and the last two tracks from the score were good as well.

Unlike many reviewers... May 16, 2006 I'm going to grade the album and not the movie. The album was actually pretty good...not perfect, but not many soundtracks are. Puff Daddy (now P. Diddy or is it just Diddy now?) does a decent job with the theme song, but the biggest standout is the remix for 'Brain Stew' by Green Day...AWSOME SONG! The original was great, the remix is better. Although not a band I was ever into, The Wallflowers were big at the time and thus got top billing on the soundtrack, and they actually hit a good note with 'Heroes'. Ben Folds Five is always a favorite and with killer tracks from the likes of RATM and Jamiroquai it's no wonder this album was a big seller. Days of the New, Fuel and The Foo Fighters all even out the playing list with great contibutions and the score by David Arnold is actually a welcomed addition. This is actually a very enjoyable album showcasing the best new talent of the late 90's.
