this is an awesome soundtrack, it is fun and enjoyable to listen to, the best songs on thi cd are all ot them

I am a huge fan of the film American Teen, it is one of my all time favorites. The soundtrack is great as well I particularity love how the film ends with Kids by MGMT. I am not impressed with the fluctuating price on amazon however. When I put the item in my shopping cart the CD was $2.99. Staying in my shopping cart for a couple of days the CD price jumped up to over fourteen dollars. I still decided to order it even though I was annoyed. A couple of days after I ordered it I checked on it and the price had dropped down to a little over five dollars. I was unhappy with that fact but the actually CD is great. Not sure why amazon did that though.

I can't believe anyone is selling this for one cent. I'm amazed how song after song has made it on to the local "alternative" radio station months later. The Black Kids "Don't Want to Teach Your Boyfriend to Dance" is my son's favorite song in the world. "Dawn of the Dead" is b-movie fun and the only Do This Offend You? song worth owning, trust me I mistakenly bought their album. "Great DJ" is also a nice sample of the Ting-Tings. I'm a huge fan of KCRW in LA and Metropolis' Jason Bentley remixed the Frou-Frou track and I think had a hand in selecting the album cuts. The mix of retro Love-Boat esqe "Love is in the Air" and Cat Stevens with "Trouble" to the cutting edge Blackalicious (this track isn't their best work but great rap group), MGMT and New Pornographers. This album is a musical universe.

i saw ryan lindsey and his band play at DFest in tulsa over the wknd. they played Let's Go Out and it was amazing. this whole album is pretty cool but i keep repeating let's go out on my ipod.
