I was very happy to be able to buy the The Rocker Soundtrack, considering a friend of mine said that the songs were only written for the movie. He was suggesting that Teddy Geiger was a not a real artist and there wouldn't be a soundtrack for the movie. I was glad to find out that wasn't true.

This is a great soundtrack for a great movie. I originally went to see it because I'm a fan of Rainn Wilson from "The Office" who stars as the main character Robert "Fish" Fishman, but I was pleasantly surprised to find out how much I enjoyed the music throughout the movie. I am particularly "picky" about music, but I enjoyed all of the songs written by Teddy Geiger. The music made the movie more enjoyable and I would recommend this soundtrack to anyone thinking about buying it.

The Rocker soundtrack is terrific! And to correct a couple of previous reviews, Teddy Geiger did not write any of the songs on the soundtrack. Chad Fischer wrote most of the songs in addition to providing added vocals and playing multiple instruments on the tracks. Geiger's voice is unique and appealing.

I didn't even want to see the movie, but my boyfriend told me it was really funny so i watched it. I was surprised how funny it was and also how much i enjoyed the music. bought all of these songs on iTunes and was please to find that teddy geiger was a real performer.

The Rocker soundtrack is awesome.

Just about every single song that was sung in the movie by A.D.D. comes out, including the 2 by rock legends Vesivus.

the Soundtrack is absoultely awesome and you won't regret buying this CD. Teddy Gieger is a awesome, and the 2 Vesiuvus tracks are great!

Prediction: In 10-20 years "The Rocker" and it's soundtrack will be considered cult classics.

I personally loved the film, and thought that the music in it was one of the anchors for its quality, and in fact, they work perfectly in the movie. Of course, by themselves, some of it's shine wears off, but by themselves, they're a collection of great pop/rock songs, that are simple, but catchy, sunny and fun.

Highlights Include:
"Tommarow Never Comes"
"Bitter"
"Great Escape"
"Coming Through In Stereo"
"Nothin' But A Good Time"
"Promised Land"
"The Rocker Score Suite"

Considering Geiger probably wrote most of the songs himself, with not a ton of time or effort put into them, it's pretty good, and especially good for a soundtrack. Sure, they're not groundbreaking, and Geiger's work is perfect for the Radio Disney crowd, and the Vesuvius work is like a tribute to every bad hair band from the 80s, and is like a AC/DC B-side.
Composer Chad Fischer's upbeat and guitar-centered score is condensed to a suite, but it's a very well-done suite at that, with some great music in there.

Overall, for a highly underrated film, a highly underrated soundtrack, and if you loved the film, I highly recommend you pick up this work as well, or even if you're a Teddy Geiger fan, it's a very well-done soundtrack considering what they probably had to work with.

I find I liked the songs much better within the movie than I do on the CD. On here, I actually like the fake 80s metal songs better than all the other ones. They are done really well and are very authentic to the tendencies and hallmarks of that era... the other songs come across rather boring compared to how they seemed while watching the movie.

I am a 30 something "Rocker" who found the movie to be totally hilarious! I was super surprised at how catchy the songs were so I bought the soundtrack. Teddy Geiger has a good voice and the production of the songs is great. Get it and rock out!!

Fine DVD, fast delivery. We enjoyed the film, great music both by Teddy Geiger and "Vesuvius."

Took my grandkids to see this movie because of Teddy Geiger's appearance in it. It was a really fun movie. We've met Teddy and his family in Rochester, NY and my grand-daughter has been to his concerts in PA, OH and everywhere he performs in NY. We love his music and miss his concert tours.

I'm probably too old to be saying that but it's true. This CD is good even if you haven't seen the movie, which you should because it's hilarious. Teddy's voice is truly great and the songs are very well written. I find myself singing "Bitter" in my head way more than is necessary :)
