Limited neon coral vinyl LP pressing. It's a tough call which is the bigger cult classic, the Tank Girl movie or it's accompanying soundtrack, but on balance, we'd have to go for the soundtrack. Yeah, the film had a cast composed of some of the most colorful characters (Iggy Pop, Ann Magnuson) and character actors (Malcolm McDowell, Ice-T, and of course the almighty Lori Petty!) in show biz. And, it's dystopic, resource-starved desert setting, intense action sequences, and lead female character mark it as a feminist (albeit funnier) precursor to Mad Max: Fury Road. But check out the soundtrack's bona-fides: assembled by Courtney Love herself, it features a Who's Who of '90s female rock including Hole, Björk, L7, Veruca Salt, and Belly among others. Plus, it even has tracks that were exclusive to it's release, like a unique version of Devo's "Girl U Want," "Mockingbird Girl" by The Magnificent Bastards (a side project of the late Scott Weiland of Stone Temple Pilots), and a duet of "Let's Do It, Let's Fall in Love" between Joan Jett and The Replacements' Paul Westerberg. In short, if there ever was a score that needs to be on wax, this would be it. We've done it right, too, with a gatefold jacket featuring the trademark comic book art and stills from the film.
