> The Matrix is an engrossing enough movie that I really only noticed the soundtrack in a few places. But those few places all sounded like a guy with a frog in his throat yelling gibberish at the top of his lungs with background noise provided by a quartet of toddlers banging away to their little hearts' content on electric guitars and drums.

Heh. I have to agree with that on the Deftones and Rob Zombie tracks, heh, as well as quite a few of the others. (I always thought "Deftones" was an appropriate name for the group. :-p)

However, I do feel like mentioning that the *entire* soundtrack isn't that way. The main track I'm thinking of here that doesn't fit the pattern Grish described is the Propellerheads' "Spybreak". Great chase scene music, disirregardless of the movie...I've heard it used in *quite* a few places, often on TV.
