I sorta wonder if headlining a Twilight Soundtrack is the new version of headlining a relevant music festival just because it is pretty mainstream, but also kinda 'indie' in a ceremonial kinda way. From what I understand, Twilight is an international phenomenon because tween girls aren't allowed to date, but they are encouraged to read books, so they kinda 'get wet' when they read about vampire bros who want to make love to loner girls. Seems like they are trying to make the movie brand 'all cool' by harvesting buzzbands, but the bands might become 'uncool' if they end up on too many chunky girls' iPods.

I remember the last Twilight Soundtrack when Grizzly Bear and Lykke Li were on it. Wonder if they are 'less special' now that Twilight just went and got a bunch of other indie ass bands to 'rock' during the movie. Hope these bands are 'getting mad bank.'

Which band seems like the most authentic band on this soundtrack, or do they all 'effing blow'?

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse soundtrack:

01 Metric: "Eclipse (All Yours)"
02 Muse: "Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever)"
03 The Bravery: "Ours"
04 Florence and the Machine: "Heavy in Your Arms"
05 Sia: "My Love"
06 Fanfarlo: "Atlas"
07 The Black Keys: "Chop and Change"
08 The Dead Weather: "Rolling in on a Burning Tire"
09 Beck and Bat For Lashes: "Let's Get Lost"
10 Vampire Weekend: "Jonathan Low"
11 UNKLE: "With You in My Head [ft. the Black Angels]"
12 Eastern Conference Champions: "A Million Miles an Hour"
13 Band of Horses: "Life on Earth"
14 Cee-Lo Green: "What Part of Forever"
15 Howard Shore: "Jacob's Theme"

Is this a 'solid ass' soundtrack that will take this movie franchise to the next level?
Will tweens think this soundtrack has gone 'too indie'?
Does alt = mainstream?
Do u think the Vampire Weekend song on this soundtrack will be 'dark', bleepy bloopy, or chamber wave?
Do u think it is 'alt' 2 say that Vampire Weekend 'sold out' or does it not even matter because they are the most successful indie band of the new decade?
Do fans care about 'indie bands going mainstream' or are we used 2 it by now, so the backlash ends up being more of a post-ironic type of event?
Do u think there is a scene in the movie where 2 vampires have sex, then they look at eachother and say "looks like it's gonna be a vampire weekend..." then Vampy Weeks starts playing?
Might just make a mix CD for a fat twilight fan girl and put a shit load of Paramore on it.

Did yall ever sit next to a kid in high school who claimed he was a vampire?
