i was listening to the Ransom songs in my car the other day and felt moved to bring a little highlight to them here in the forums.

what is everyone's opinion on them? like them? hate them? miss matt walker?

personally i like them. worms and spiders are my two favorites of the bunch. i also wonder what some or all of these songs could or would sound like with lyrics.

thoughts?

Some of them are okay, but they don't really do anything for me.

I have yet to hear them.

I've never heard the songs independent from where they are in the film, so I've always been turned off by them. I just can't separate the music from the torture of the little kid!

oh no! you all must hear them.

i know what you mean trillian... thankfully i bought and heard the soundtrack before i saw the movie. then when i saw the movie i was like... oh man.

great songs though... even with the bad connotation.

superchrist, definitely check out worms, spiders, and squirrels with tails all the way through.

i have the songs, but i have never listened to them or seen the movie.

Hey, ransom is super cool and super underrated Billy Corgan industrial-rock stuff...I own the soundtrack and i love the things Billy recorded for the movie, tough I never saw the film....

I only saw the movie to hear because of the songs. I kept waiting and waiting, and then it was funny to instantly know which music was his. I didn't know at first if he did the score or what.
Funny also to see it in the credits as "kidnapper's boombox music" or something like that.
I bought the soundrack as well. I really like those songs. I only saw the movie once, so I've been able to appreciate the songs apart from what was going on at the time in the movie.
