I've been looking for this CD for a while and in the end had to fork out £12.99 to amazon in order to get it. Although the price is a little steep it was worth it. Although the film mirrors Shakespeare's 'Taming of the Shrew' the soundtrack seems to deviate and not show the same feminist attitudes as the film itself.
The CD itself comprises of 14 tracks and although my favourite song from the film, 'One Week' by Bare Naked Ladies, the other tracks certainly make up for it, these include 'Cruel to be Kind' by Letters to Cleo and 'I Know' by Save Ferris. This is the kind of music to be listened to after a bad day when screaming and shouting seems appropriate as it is very feminine indie rock.
The sleeve is filled with images from the film to help remind you that this is not simply a good compilation album, it belongs with a movie. Many of the artists I had not heard of before purchasing the album but since then have bought several by many of them and found it to be of the same high quality.
I would highly recommend this CD to anyone who's had a bad day and needs something to shout along to. There is quite a variety of songs, mostly indie although some pop, which would appeal to anyone who has seen the film. It's good enough for me to have bought two more copies for friends as Christmas presents.
