New Moon

The much-awaited sequel of the year has come and finally, the wait is over. With a new director (Chris Weitz) and a new hot-sizzling bod of one of the main characters, Jacob (Taylor Lautner); New Moon also has released its list of soundtracks. In contrary to some of the speculations, too bad Robert Pattinson is not singing on the compilation. Instead, a taste of indie music is what the disc is all about. The compilation consists of different artists with amazing sets of songs. Stephenie Meyer, the Twilight Saga series author has originally made a list of songs she opted to best suit the story while while writing the book and some of her choices made it on the disc. Some of the treats in store for the disc are Death Cab For Cutie,  Thom Yorke, Grizzly Bear, and a lot more. Their songs represent appropriately the different scenes it has been played on the film. Surely, this is one soundtrack of the year! Go take that fall. Jump on that cliff err… hop unto your favorite record bars and outlets to enjoy the list.

The soundtracks of the movie were poignantly placed at each scene which actually makes the movie more palatable for its audience.  It adds more sense and feeling to the lines of the characters. Interestingly, New Moon’s soundtracks are not a mixed of emo or punk music instead, it features indie music which breaks away from the current trend of music. This way, the movie has another feel of tone because of its music; it’s what the audience will love: different and catchy instead of the usual romantic and gothic.
