Here is the rather impressive list of bands that will be on the upcoming Twilight: New Moon soundtrack.  Keep in mind this is an abstinence movie for girls about vampires. 

1. Death Cab For Cutie – “Meet Me On The Equinox”
2. Band Of Skulls – “Friends”

7. Muse – “I Belong To You (New Moon)”
8. Bon Iver and St. Vincent – “Roslyn”

12. OK Go – “Shooting The Moon”
13. Grizzly Bear – “Slow Life”
14. Editors – “No Sound But The Wind”
15. Alexandre Desplat – “New Moon (The Meadow)”

Pretty impressive right?  Of course you are already familiar with Meet Me On The Equinox, and you've had your share of Thom Yorke recently, what are your thoughts on the album that appears to be shaping up as this fall's Dark Was the Night , on which SHA favorites and New Moon soundtrack participants Grizzly Bear and Bon Iver also appeared.  The soundtrack is set for an October 20th release, the movie a month later, Nov 20.

Apparently the soundtrack to Twilight: New Moon might be exciting if you like music from the likes of Thom Yorke, or Bon Iver.  Aside from those heavy hitters, the first single comes from Death Cab For Cutie.  The song  Meet Me On The Equinox , was written specifically for the film,

The creepiness that is the idea of an abstinence vampire franchise for little girls turning out a possibly awesome soundtrack album is really too much for me to deal with at times.  Luckily it is football season so the testosterone is flowing.  I'm so happy this didn't happen around Valentine's Day.

And if you really want to be creeped out, check out the pre-order site and how you can by a poster, shirt, and the album for $500.  Oh you crazy abstinent vampire loving youths, what will you think of next?
