AMG Review of Buffy the Vampire Slayer [Original Soundtrack]

William Ruhlmann
All Music Guide

This average collection of outtakes from a bunch of medium-level rockers assembled for an amusing but forgettable teen horror comedy is for completists who must have everything by Matthew Sweet, Susanna Hoffs, Toad the Wet Sprocket, the Divinyls (a reasonable cover of "Ain't Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore"), Ozzy Osbourne, or the Cult. Post-Judas Priest singer Rob Halford has a solo selection, "Light Comes Out of Black."
