Editor's Notes

Note

Sony replaced one of the songs at a party scene due to licensing issues, swapping the Suicide Machines track for something generic. Collectors noticed because the song is meant to sound like it's actually playing at the party, so changing it changes the entire feel of the scene. Sony didn't announce the swap, which is typical for major studios. Still locked into the Sony Classics box set for standalone seekers, with eBay copies running around $35 USD.

Mentions

I'm not too sure the best place to complain about this, but the 4K transfer of SLC Punk looks great, but they replaced one of my favorite songs in it and I hadn't seen anything online about it before 20 SLC Punk 4K w/ Alternate Soundtrack? 2 SLC PUNK 4K 4
