Its a tough call which is the bigger cult classic, the Tank Girl movie or its accompanying soundtrack, but on balance, wed have to go for the soundtrack. Yeah, the film had a cast composed of some of the most colorful characters (Iggy Pop, Ann Magnuson) and character actors (Malcolm McDowell, Ice-T, and of course the almighty Lori Petty!) in show biz. And, its dystopic, resource-starved desert setting, intense action sequences, and lead female character mark it as a feminist (albeit funnier) precursor to Mad Max: Fury Road. But check out the soundtracks bona-fides: assembled by Courtney Love herself, it features a Whope!s Who of 90s female rock including Hole, Bjork, L7, Veruca Salt, and Belly among others. Plus, it even has tracks that were exclusive to its release, like a unique version of Devos "Girl U Want," "Mockingbird Girl" by The Magnificent Bastards (a side project of the late Scott Weiland of Stone Temple Pilots), and a duet of "Lets Do It, Lets Fall in Love" between Joan Jett and The Replacements Paul Westerberg. In short, if there ever was a score that needs to be on wax, this would be it. Weve done it right, too, with a gatefold jacket featuring the trademark comic book art and stills from the film, and a neon yellow vinyl pressing limited to 750 copies!
