rating: 4 QuoteHeavy Platinum on the SoundtrackQuote
The soundtrack to the 1981 animated film is an excellent example of the merging of two pop culture genres that was prevalent during this era. And the wide range of musical styles is an outstanding cross-section of this "Golden Era" for FM rock-orientated radio.

There are arena tour mainstays like Black Sabbath (The Mob Rules), Blue Oyster Cult (Veteran of the Psychic Wars), Grand Funk Railroad (Queen Bee), Journey (Open Arms) and Nazareth (Crazy {A Suitable Case for Treatment}), along with members of super groups (Donald Fagen, Don Felder, Stevie Nicks) showing some style on their own.

Cheap Trick (Reach Out, I Must Be Dreamin') is at the height of its radio playlist power, while Riggs, Trust and the quirky Devo add some spice to the mix. Sammy Hagar provides a solid punch with the title track.

The heavy metal on here is platinum, as the performances are as good as it gets from these artists. December 31, 2008

This is my all time favorite driving soundtracks. I never had road rage when I listened to it. I was too busy listening and driving. October 13, 2008

It's missing the 'Through being cool' song by Devo that was playing during the bar scene in 'Taarna' September 17, 2008

The soundtrack to the animated 1981 movie HEAVY METAL is absolutely wonderful, even though the movie itself was pretty tasteless. One band on here, Riggs, contributed members to Pat Travers' band. Several other artists here- Sammy Hagar, Nazareth, Stevie Nicks, Grand Funk Railroad, Don Felder, Blue Oyster Cult, and Journey- oppose Indonesia's trumped-up 2005 drug-smuggling conviction of a young Australian tourist, as well as creating a great soundtrack that makes even the most tasteless visual imagery worthwhile. So my advice is, buy the CD, don't see the movie. August 23, 2008
