Eclipse soundtrack features The Dead Weather, The Black Keys, Band of Horses, Florence & The Machine, The Bravery, Muse, Bombay Bicycle Club and Battles
Yeah, you mightn't like the Twilight saga of books or their adaptation to the silver screen and you may even prefer the Harry Potter series ten times over. But you'll have to admit, that's a pretty cool soundtrack with or without exclusive new tracks, and a good deal cooler than anything that's ever come out of J. K. Rowling's stable.
Eclipse by name and Eclipse by reputation, the second Twilight installment is sure to push box office records, but where it really makes history is in its soundtrack. Never before has there been such a rush for artists to appear on the sleeve notes of a film's soundtrack. For the lucky artists on this soundtrack, you can be sure the movie will mean mass exposure to a whole new type of fan.
It even features a collaboration between Beck and Bat for Lashes as well as brand new tracks from Florence & The Machine, The Dead Weather and Vampire Weekend.
