If you’re looking for a review of the New Moon soundtrack, I’m glad you came by. The thoughts that might be running through your head are probably similar to the thoughts that I had when I first saw the lineup of bands that contributed original music to this soundtrack.
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.
You might be like me in this case. I had no idea what New Moon was, and it’s probably because I have no connection to that demographic and I’m by no means interested in a show or movie about vampires.
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.
Whatever their motives were for agreeing to do this together, the end result is pretty fascinating. I’ve found myself listening to this soundtrack quite a bit since I got it last week, and while I’ll never see the movie, I’ll definitely be listening to this some more.
With big names like Grizzly Bear, Bon Iver, Thom Yorke, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and others, this is the best compilation CD I’ve heard since Dark Was the Night came out earlier this year.
There’s great songwriting, great guitar work, and a lot of music that basically sums up the current state of indie rock. I’m very impressed with this album on a whole, as are many well respected music critics.
Look past the production that they’ve created this soundtrack for, and focus on the artists. They’ve put forth their best efforts on this release.
