Godzilla (1998)

The 1998 song compilation is a busy, uneven party, which is part of its appeal. Rage Against the Machine's No Shelter, Foo Fighters' A320 and Jamiroquai's Deeper Underground offer sharply different ways to generate momentum. They make a more engaging collection of personalities than the prolonged monster chase around New York. This is Godzilla: The Album, rather than a recommendation of David Arnold's full score or another Godzilla film's music; the pleasure is in its late-1990s collisions, not a claim that every track accompanies a particular scene.
