NRG (the band from the Transformers 1986 soundtrack)

I don't believe it did.

The 90s cartoon Biker Mice From Mars did have a pretty good hard rock soundtrack though:

I never saw this nor the G.I. Joe movie. I guess I was too old for them.

Funny. I was (and am) waaaay more of a GI Joe dude than Transformers. I still enjoy the GI Joe movie, but more out of a nostalgic, this is fun type of way. The TF movie, in my opinion, was actually a well-made, well-animated all around good movie.

The Transformers movie was amazing. I haven't seen the GIJoe movie in decades but I don't remember it being anywhere near as good.

Ditto.

And as much as a fan as I was of the figures and comic books, the GI Joe cartoons always seemed super lame to me.

I like the live-action films and as a kid I grew up watching G.I. Joe Extreme.

The CD arrived yesterday. For some reason, Paypal gave him my old mailing address (I cannot even find it still listed anywhere on my Paypal), so I had to wait for the post office to forward. Worth the wait, though. If you like "Instruments of Destruction", I'm guessing you'd dig the whole thing.

For those concerned with this kind of thing, it's a CDR (I am not concerned with that sort of thing). It does come in a standard jewel case, though, with front and back art (though just kind of a generic cover with band name/song titles, etc):

I don't think the G.I. Joe movie had a hard rock soundtrack. It did have some cussing (one instant where Beachead yelled 'shit' at a recruit) and even some blood (Serpentor threw one of his snake darts into Duke's heart).

You probably thought the same thing about the G.I. Joe cartoon that I thought about Power Rangers (though I truly believe Power Rangers was FAR inferior to that cartoon).
