Soundtrack / 96,6% catchy, powerful tunes from that Fun, Rocking Movie

With the likes of Fountains of Wayne's Adam Schlesinger, former Letters to Cleo singer Kay Hanley, and Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds on board, the soundtrack album for the live-action update of the beloved Archie Comics spinoff boasts some of the best Rock & Roll made for a Hollywood flick since Schlesinger wrote That Thing You Do's title tune. Fast, guitars-cranked Power pop with Hanley's voice-of-Josie supplying the songs' sassy attitude, the music puts across a sisterly stance that fans of the Donnas and the Go-Go's will recognize. Program out the two frighteningly realistic boy-group pastiches by the fictional DuJour and maybe the Pussycats' sole draggy moment (Couldn't the producers at least have sped up the lame love ballad "You Don't See Me"?) and this is one feisty howl of a CD. Hope for a volume 2.

This soundtrack simply features songs from the two fictious bands in the movie, most predominantly "Josie & the Pussycats". No orchestras, no over-production, no fancy synths: just simple yet well-written, extremely catchy, melodic power-pop. And there's even a cover of the theme song from the original cartoon show. Keep in mind that this is a movie soundtrack, so there is inevitably more than one artist featured on the CD. This brings me to the second band from the movie, the ficticious heart-thob boy band "DuJour". The two tracks of theirs sound extremely stereotypical and lame, but that's exactly the point. Anybody who's seen the movie (or knows what "DuJour" means) will get the joke. They intentionally portray a flash-in-the-pan fluff band in the movie. And the lyrics to "Back Door Lover" include some funny X-rated puns. So aside from these two tracks, the rest of the album is rather consistant in its style. You might find yourself humming to the really catchy hooks all day long. Needless to say, this is good and a pretty kickin' sountrack.

Josie and the Pussycats OST features work by Fountains of Wayne' Adam Schlesinger, Counting Crows' Adam Duritz, the Go-Go's Jane Wiedlin, and Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds. Rachael Leigh Cook's voice was dubbed by Letters to Cleo's former singer Kay Hanley for the film's musical set pieces, the three lead actresses sang backup vocals on many songs. The film's catchy, rocking soundtrack may be its greatest asset and -- at least commercially -- its biggest liability: full of raw power chords and infectious melodies, it's a throwback to the days of good pop-punk, as opposed to the saccharine, Britney-esque sound of its time.
