Great Music and Vocals on New Moon OST

The New Moon soundtrack has quickly made a buzz in the indie music world, and deservedly so. If you haven’t listened to it yet, here’s a brief synopsis of the album.

I’m sure you may be wondering the same thing that most music fans think when they see the bands that they love on a soundtrack like this one.

To be honest, I had never even heard of the show or the movie until I found out about the soundtrack recently. It wasn’t until after reading a review for the album that I even knew what it was.

I’m still confused by the fact that these bands are on the New Moon soundtrack. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if half of these bands had never even heard of the show before they were asked to make music for it.

Regardless of the above, they’ve really contributed to this soundtrack with some exciting, relevant, and original compositions. This is truly one of the better indie compilations of the past few years, as surprising as that may sound.

Some of the best names in indie rock are featured on this soundtrack. Some of them include Grizzly Bear, Thom Yorke, Lykke Li, and St. Vincent. These are truly some of the finest in the music world, and I’m impressed with the fact that the producers of this film were able to attract so many talented artists.

There are some truly original compositions on this CD, and many of them would be standout tracks on any of these artists’ original albums. That says enough about the quality of this release.

If you’re willing to forget about the fact that this is actually the soundtrack for a teen vampire movie, you’ll be very pleasantly surprised with the result.
