VARIOUS ARTISTS Fubar OST (Aquarius /EMI)

All of those punk and pop-rock bands you thought wouldn’t touch the dated ‘80s rock with a ten-foot pole have all come together in an attempt to revive the lagging careers of the casino-circuit bands. From Sum 41’s cover of Helix’s "Rock You" to Breach Of Trust belting out "Eyes Of A Stranger," the Can-rockers develop true goat-throwin’ capabilities with the Fubar soundtrack. Highlighted by a few old school gems such as Girlschool’s Motorhead-ish "C’mon Let’s Go" and Sweet’s "Blockbuster," this album is a perfect mix of old glories and new battles for any self-respecting, pencil-moustached rocker. Sure, these groups don’t deliver the songs with the same testosterone, grab-my-balls-an’-holler venom of the originals, but the intent, the desire and most importantly the fun is all there, making each tune a silly treat. There are few bombs on the Fubar soundtrack, most acts delivering inspired performances that prove just how deeply they love their mullet-rock. In fact, the only truly disappointing moment is Sloan’s rather flaccid take on Rush’s groove-rock anthem "In The Mood." Delivering zero enthusiasm, they would seem more appropriate on some Perry Como tribute. After repeated listens this soundtrack might lose some of its sheen, but until then, ya just gotta give’r. Keith Carman
