For soundtracks, I agree.  Laibach in their early days did a lot of harsh industrial music, evoking the kind of soundscapes you might imagine from a 1980's Yugoslavian mining town.  Think "Test Department"  .They've dabbled in other genres, but mostly remaining avant-garde.  Many covers which usually consist of taking a Western song and making it strange, uncovering hidden meanings and other interpretations.

The soundtrack is OK, but by no means their best work. In fact, I would say it is the least enjoyable of all their albums.
