OST

by 24 Hour Party People
August 6, 2002
The soundtrack to the fictionalized account of the rise and fall of Manchester's Factory Records includes, somewhat obviously, a generous helping of New Order, Joy Division, and Happy Mondays songs (including the title track by the latter), as well as cuts from A Guy Called Gerald, Durutti Column, and the Buzzcocks. This is also the only album where you'll find the newest New Order single, "Here to Stay," a collaboration with the Chemical Brothers that failed to appear on either group's latest LP.

Bachelor No. 2 (or, the last remains of the dodo)

by Aimee Mann
May 2, 2000
The third solo release from the former 'Til Tuesday leader finally made it to record stores in May 2000, after a long journey that saw Interscope refuse to release the album and Mann issue it on her own SuperEgo label (after selling it through mail order and at her live performances). All's well that ends well, though, as Mann gained widespread acclaim for her soundtrack to P.T. Anderson's film "Magnolia" and even better reviews for this album, which contains four of the tracks from the soundtrack as well as nine additional songs.

March 9, 1999
This is the second album for the English singer-songwriter, who gained acclaimed for her 1996 debut 'Trailer Park' as well as her work with the Chemical Brothers and William Orbit. Here, she shies away from the electronica of her prior album, resulting in a more organic folk-and-blues sound.
