Big names in modem rock contribute to
'Until the End of the World' soundtrack
By Kevin Robinson
The Battalion
Until the End of the World
Various Artists
Warner Bros. Records
German filmmaker Wim Wenders has
always used music as a vital ingredient in
his movies. Guitarist Ry Cooder was hired
to provide the score for "Paris, Texas" and
artists Laurie Anderson, Crime and the City
Solution, and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
were featured in "Wings of Desire". With
the soundtrack for his new film, "Until the
End of the World," Wenders has pulled off
a minor miracle. Fourteen of the best artists
in modern music are included in the sound
track. Even more amazing is that, with the
exception of the tracks from Lou Reed and
U2, all of the material is brand new and ex
clusive to the album.
The best songs on the compilation are
from the more established names. R.E.M.
turns in "Fretless", a vocal and guitar piece
that either matches or exceeds anything on
the group's excellent "Out of Time."
R.E.M. seems to be most powerful in their
quieter songs, and "Fretless" is no exception.
Musk From The Motion Picture Soundtrack
Until The End Of The Worll
A Film By Wirn Wenders
Depeche Mode makes a surprising turn with
"Death's Door." For the past few years this band has
been getting better and better, gradually moving
from their former bubblegum dance-pop to more se
rious topics and experimentation. With this song, a
new step is taken. "Death's Door" is mostly a vocal
track, with no percussion at all, and the only key
board being an unobtrusive organ sound in the back
ground. Dance fans are going to hate this, but it easi
ly stands as one of the most beautifully written songs
in the group's career.
Also surprising is "Sax and Violins", a new piece
from Talking Heads. "Sax" is vintage-style Heads,
combing a pulsing Latin rhythm with David Byrne's
ambiguous lyrics. After not having heard anything
from the group in years, its refreshing to see David
Byrne back from Rio and combined with the group
with whom he produced his best work.
The rest of the album, although not as exception
al, is filled with quality music. Jane Siberry and k.d.
lang contribute haunting vocals on "Calling All An
gels", as does Julee Cruise on "Summer Kisses, Win
ter Tears" produced by David Lynch. Crime and the
City Solution and German experimental group Can
provide the European voice for the soundtrack.
Neneh Cherry is featured on "Move With Me,"
Daniel Lanois manages to do a better Bob Dylan im
pression than Dylan himself has for the past ten
years or so, and Nick Cave croons a typical cabaret
ballad.
Disappointments on the album are few. Elvis
Costello's "Days" isn't necessarily a bad song, but far
from Costello's usual level. T-Bone Burnett also
comes short on "Humans From Earth," a track that
simply becomes too cheesy for its own good.
The track, "Until the End of the World" by U2,is
also released on the recent Achtung Baby!, but the
soundtrack version is a little rougher in the mix. Ei
ther the song is from a different take than the version
on the album, or its a remix. In any case, the sound
track version is rawer and more immediate. Similar
ly, Lou Reed's "What's Good" was included in a
more refined form on his Magic and Loss album a few
weeks back.
Overall, Until the End of the World is one of the
better music compilations to be released this year.
Wender's has won quite a following with many of
the artists represented, and this respect for his work
comes out in the quality of the songs created for the
film. Even the instrumental music of Graeme Revell
is more than worth a listen and provides a good be
ginning and end to the disc. Although the movie
hasn't hit regional theaters yet, if the film meets the
standards set by its soundtrack, it'll be a must-see.
