Eye, The Smashing Pumpkins

Lost Highway's soundtrack, for me, is up there with the retro synth-rock, ambient sounds of Marie Antoinette or the 'Best Of: Grunge', otherwise known as Singles. Its dark, disturbed, dub-metal sounds are eerily moody and atmospheric, complimenting the Lynch film perfectly. It's be-witching, haunting, and probably the best thing Reznor's ever put together. It features regular Lynch collaborator Badalamenti through to the popular legends such as Lou Reed and David Bowie, right through to heavy industrial rock such as Marilyn Manson and Nine Inch Nails. The song I've chosen is a hidden gem from The Smashing Pumpkins, one of those songs which is hidden on a film soundtrack which you simply chance by.

This song draws on the horrifying eroticism of Lynch's film, which he apparently loved instantly. I did too. I still remember watching the film for the first time, reminding me to find out what this song was called afterwards, and I often return to it, one of my favourite tracks from The Smashing Pumpkins.
