Key Alt-Rock Movie Soundtracks
Movie soundtracks once shaped the direction of popular music...and nowhere was that more true than in alternative rock.
This week, we go back into the Ongoing History vault to trace the evolution of movie soundtracks from their early, days to their cultural impact in the ’80s and ’90s. These are albums that helped define, amplify, and sometimes completely redirect alternative music.
From the electronic shock of A Clockwork Orange to the cult chaos of The Rocky Horror Picture Show...from the John Hughes films that introduced a generation to British alt‑rock, to era‑defining releases like Singles, Judgement Night, The Crow, and Trainspotting...this is an exploration of how film and music collided at exactly the right moments.
Soundtracks may not dominate the charts the way they once did, but their influence is everywhere.
