It makes for a good soundtrack for the opening credits (and the initial teaser). I judge it more on those terms than trying to as a stand-alone piece of music.
Karen's done some great stuff with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. It's Blitz is one of the very best pop albums of the last decade in my opinion.
my fiancee and i were listening to fever to tell the other night while we were cleaning. that album always gets my blood pumping.
i quite like both karen's vocal style and writing style. i think she was the perfect choice for the cover of immigrant song.
i fell in love with the yeah yeah yeahs the first time i heard "art star" when that first EP was the only thing they had released.
Can't believe they're still available.
I figured that if they were still available six months after going on sale, then it would take a very, very long time for the rest to be bought up, if ever. There's no demand any more except for people like me, of which there are likely very few.
Barfed up another wallpaper for the Nexus 4's resolution the other week, if you're not a fan of phone based downscaling. The best version I have of this image is a cap from the blu-ray extras, which isn't as sharp as I like but fine for a phone. I'm still obsessed.
edit: I'll have to get a pack of Nexus 5 formatted wallpapers going, soon. Even if people don't care, I'd be making them for myself anyway. Doesn't hurt to share.

Was there ever a directory set up to track which GDT boxes people had, like the one set up for The Slip way back when? I remember that nin.com.au tried to do that with Ghosts and it didn't end up working.
I don't think there was.
Here is the slip one for anyone that doesn't know what/where it is.
...has anyone made a vinyl rip of this soundtrack yet??
Out of boredom and curiosity, I analyzed the 24-96 FLAC's using the Dynamic Range Meter for Foobar2000. I noticed that while most of the soundtrack was okay dynamic range-wise (around DR7-8), Immigrant Song and Is Your Love... are horribly crushed at DR4. Since David Fincher came up with the ideas for the covers and is listed in the liner notes as a "producer" for the two tracks, I'm guessing it was his idea to make the tracks as loud and compressed as possible - like that Ren Klyce interview where he said he was instructed by Fincher to make the club scene in The Social Network sound even louder than it already was.
I doubt that. He wouldn't have interfered in the mixing/mastering process when it came to the soundtrack album. More likely scenario: TR & AR pushed those tracks up simply because they have vocals and probably will more often be heard alongside other vocal-driven songs on iPod playlists etc.
Is there anyway I could any version of this from you please I have been looking everywhere for months upon months!
cool! here is one i created for iPhone lovers a while back:

Ok 2 things and most of you will probably laugh...
Does Hypomania sound like a predator attacking its prey? The guitars sound like two animals going back and forth. Creepy as fuck
And lastly, am I the only one that tears up whenever What if We Could? plays? (one of the saddest songs ever written???)
Had a seven hour train ride yesterday, starting in NYC. Got on at 7:15 AM (after having worked until 5:00 and not sleeping yet), and put this soundtrack on. Woke up during the first track and went "fuck, I can't even sleep through one song?"
I was in Albany.
The soundtrack is awesome to read thriller books to, though. Especially on a bus/train ride.
Its just a stream, it's very late, but yeah its better than nothing.

I'm listening to this soundtrack today.
It does an excellent job at portraying winter & features fantastic sounds.
Does anyone have a really nice high resolution scan of the FYC release?
I wonder if the vinyl being available in the store means nullco.com won't be the store for GG, or if it's just no one bought it so they're making it more obvious

(btw, if you have $300 spare, you should totally buy it and send it to me)
