Thom Yorke Wrote Exclusive Song for New Moon Soundtrack
Bon Iver Also Contributing to Twilight Sequel
Jul 27, 2009 Thom Yorke
According to the film’s director, Thom Yorke wrote a new song for the soundtrack to the Twilight sequel New Moon.
New Moon helmer Chris Weitz corroborated the news in an interview with HitFix.com that took place at Comic-Con. According to HitFix, Weitz got his first listen to the track on Friday. “Unless it’s sounds of him belching, I think I’ll put it in,” Weitz joked.
Oh if this wasn’t already gonzo enough, guess who else penned a new track for New Moon? Bon Iver! “He says he wrote it for the film, but who ever knows if it might just be something laying around in his cupboard,” says Weitz. Death Cab For Cutie and Muse are also confirmed for the final tracklisting but you never know with this kind of stuff. Who’s next? My Bloody Valentine? Is it 2012? (Via Pitchfork)

I heard a rumor that this is due to the fact Yorke himself IS a vampire.
