Those of us who are old enough to remember the original Crow soundtrack probably remember it as one of the best movie soundtracks ever. In fact is was so good it was probably 33.3333% of the reason you liked the movie at all. The other equally proportioned parts were of course, Brandon Lee’s acting and the story. Since I believe it is an undeniable fact that music gave a glossy and sparkling sheen to the overall appeal of the original Crow movie, is it not therefore fair to demand that The Crow reboot have an equally excellent soundtrack? With that in mind I’m going to throw out some suggestions for artists that I believe should be included in the soundtrack. I will only provide links to the respective artist’s song because the last time I actually put more than two videos in an article it took too long to load and I got zero comments…either that or my article just sucked. My goal is to compile a list of artists who can invoke the feelings and atmosphere that the original soundtrack of almost twenty years ago had, but with a modern glaze. My justification for each artist included is nothing more than the song I link to. I believe each artist has the ability to capture some element of The Crow mythos and express it in a way that we can empathetically feel. This list will most likely be constantly evolving. Sound off with your suggestions.
1. Jack white
Two Against One
2. Arcade fire
Haiti
3. Lana Del Rey
Video Games
4. Raveonettes
Lust
5. Cage the Elephant
Ain't No Rest For The Wicked
6. Lucinda Williams

7. Johnny Cash “Ain't No Grave”
This song should just be included and if you disagree, you’re wrong!
Ain't No Grave
8. My Morning Jacket
Holding On To Black Metal
9. Muse

10. Sleigh Bells
