The new and official trailer for Richard Kelly’s long-awaited “Southland Tales” (the guy who did “Donnie Darko”) features the Pixies’ “Wave Of Mutilation (UK Surf Version)”- first seen on the “Pump Up The Volume” soundtrack in 1990. This new trailer (which sort of cements the reputation of this film being disjointed, ludicrous and awful) also features Moby’s “Blue Paper,” and the Elbow track “Forget Myself.” Justin Timberlake narrates.

Magenta-haired tart and UK “soul” singer Joss Stone will perform a cover of Nat King Cole’s classic 1964 ballad “L-O-V-E” for the soundtrack to the short film for Chanel, entitled “Coco Mademoiselle,” which stars Oscar-nominated puckerface actress Keira Knightley. Sounds like an awesome, extended and long-form ad. “Film” my ass.
Members of Beirut, TV On The Radio and Guided By Voices, Shudder to Think, Vampire Weekend, and OK Go are guests on the soundtrack to the biblical-based indie-vignettes comedy, “The Ten.” The songs were written by indie-rocker turned film composer, ex-Shudder To Think Craig Werden. Everyone on the planet forgot about this film’s existence and the possiblitly of a soundtrack, but Pitchfork finally clued us all in a month late. The album came out Aug 28. Aren’t we all on it.

As you’ve probably read, Eddie Vedder is mulling about the idead of taking his “Into The Wild” solo soundtrack album onto the road for a tour. Of course, Vedder – an avid surfer – can take any subject – even ones as boring as comparing Pearl Jam stadium shows to the intimate, smaller show he hopes do’ – into a surf for life metaphor, which he does. “If you surf 50-foot waves all the time, you can’t try too many new things, because 50-foot waves are kind of life and death. Playing big shows is like that…so you want to take on some smaller waves to rework or refine what you do, and then take it back to the big surf.” [L.A. Times]
