Edgar Wright Offers Glimpse of Scott Pilgrim Soundtrack

Edgar Wright has given us a sneak peak of the soundtrack to his highly anticipated adaptation of the Scott Pilgrim series thanks in part to one of the bands featured on it, Metric. The song is called “Black Sheep” and was a song the band started working on in their sessions for their newest record, Fantasies. According to the band, they were recruited by Wright to do the tune for the soundtrack with Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich fulfilling those duties for the song. You can hear the song on Metric’s Facebook page. Scott Pilgrim author/artist Bryan Lee O’Malley has confirmed that the song is that of Clash at Demonhead, the band of Scott Pilgrim’s ex-girlfriend, featured in the poster above. Wright had previously posted a picture of himself alongside Godrich and Broken Social Scene, so this is shaping up to be a soundtrack that equals the awesome levels of the film (we’re assuming/hoping).

UPDATE: Edgar Wright has tweeted that Beck is also going to be on the soundtrack, and even more names are coming.

UPDATE 2: According to /Film, Beck will be providing the music for Scott Pilgrim’s band Sex Bob-omb and Broken Social Scene for Crash and the Boys. Sounds insanely awesome!
