Good Points: Contains eight classic tracks, a Kerbdog B-Side and an exclusive to the release Anthrax track.

Bad Points: A mere ten tracks, it's not worth paying much for.

General comments: Bordello Of Blood - Released back in August of 1996, the 'Bordello Of Blood' soundtrack was brought out to accompany the Tales From The Crypt film which was directed by Gilbert Adler. The ten track CD was popular with rockers as it contained an exclusive Anthrax track of the same name.

The tracklisting is as follows:
1. Anthrax - Bordello Of Blood
2. Kerbdog - This Is Not A Love Song
3. Free - All Right Now
4. Thin Lizzy - Jailbreak
5. Sweet - Ballroom Blitz
6. Redd Kross - Deuce
7. Scorpions - Still Loving You
8. Humble Pie - 30 Days In The Hole
9. Cinderella - Love's Got Me Doin' Time
10. The Herd (Featuring Peter Frampton) - From The Underworld

The first track is the Anthrax track written and recorded for the film 'Bordello Of Blood'.

The second track is the Kerbdog cover of the Public Image Ltd track "This Is Not A Love Song" which originally appeared on the second part of the 1994 "Dummy Crusher" single.

Next we have the 1970 track "All Right Now" by the band Free. The track managed to reach number 2 in the UK charts and was taken from the album "Fire And Water".

Now we come to the classic Thin Lizzy track "Jailbreak" that was taken from the 1976 album of the same title.

Track five is the Sweet track "Ballroom Blitz" which was taken from the album 'Blockbusters' in 1973. The song was actually written by Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman who wrote many Glam Rock hits like this one.

Next is the Kiss cover of the track "Deuce" by the Los Angeles punk-pop cult band Redd Kross.

Now we come to the Scorpions track "Still Loving You" which was taken from the 1984 album 'Love At First Sting'. The epic 6 min 26 sec track is thought of as one of The Scorpions most loved tracks.

Track eight is the Humble Pie track "30 Days In The Hole". This song is taken from the 1972 album 'Smokin'' and was released as a single in the US a year after the album came out. The song was inspired by a Humphrey Bogart line in the 1938 movie Angels With Dirty Faces.

Next is the Cinderella track "Love's Got Me Doin' Time" taken from the 1990 album 'Heartbreak Starion'.

Lastly we have the track "From The Underworld" by The Herd (Featuring Peter Frampton). Released in August of 1967, the song managed to fly up to number six in the UK charts.
