The soundtrack/score that The Dust Brothers made for the movie Fight Club is the best damn film score ever. I spent all day listening to it and it has been in my MP3 playlist since I first heard in in 2000. It really brings out the emotional impact of the corporate industrial world in us all.
I know every beat and note to the album. It is music to listen to sitting in a chair from Ikea. Even if you have not seen the movie the soundtrack is worth listing to.

The Dust Brothers are amazing. This album can stand on its own w/out the movie, and not many film scores can do that.
There are only a few soundtracks I absolutely love, and this is in the top three along with Pi and Spawn. However, Fight Club takes the cake since it's an original motion picture score, and not licensed music (i.e. we don't see the Pixies "Where is my Mind?" appear on the album).
Still, everyone should have this in their collection, perhaps even the Aussie Edition w/the bonus track to be completist!

Thats one of my favorite soundtracks as well. The movie was damn fine to. Hence the Fight Clube theme on my site.

Yeah, the fight club soundtrack was pretty good. Did you guys find it homoerotic? I did. The movie, not the soundtrack.

Yes there was a subtle undertone to the movie but it had several subtle undertones. It also has soap making.

Appropos of nothing, the Fight Club game sucks. Maybe it was just an early build I played, but Tyler's fist should not start making its laborious way to Jack's jaw a full second after I let go of the button.

Here is hoping that it is a very early build
