Now That the New Moon Soundtrack is Here, Bring on the Eclipse Soundtrack Rumours

You've barely had enough time to listen to the entirety of the New Moon soundtrack -- never mind learning the music for "The Meadow" in time for your piano recital -- and already we're on to reporting rumours about what songs will appear on the soundtrack to Eclipse.

You can blame/thank Muse for that, Twi-hards, as the British rockers (a.k.a. Stephenie Meyer's favourite-est band ever) told MTV that there's an excellent chance they'll supply a tune for the third Twilight installment.

"It's great to have the feeling of being a new band again in so many people's eyes or minds," said the band's drummer Dominic Howard, while talking about the benefits of finding Muse is one of those vampire bands the kids like. "We might even do something for the third one," he hinted. "How about that for a scoop?"

Of course, Eclipse isn't due out in theatres until June 30, 2010 at least, so we'll just have to keep up the wild, rumour-mongering stories until anything more concrete is determined. Still, as Howard himself points out, Muse has some killer connections on the third film, never mind their solid rep from the songs they supplied for the first two Twilight soundtracks.

We all know author Meyer counts herself a fan. Same goes, it turns out, for Eclipse's director, David Slade.

"[Slade is] kind of a friend of ours 'cause he directed about three or four of our videos for the second album, and he's a really great video director," he told MTV. "I know he did that really great kind of sick horror [film 30 Days of Night] which was a bit of a vampire/zombie vibe, wasn't it? So I think he's a great director, and he's quite a funny character as well. So, yeah, we might do something for him as well."

Until then, keep on familiarizing yourself with Muse's contribution to the New Moon soundtrack, "I Belong to You." We've got it streaming -- along with a preview of the album's 14 other tracks -- right here. You're welcome.

4 New Bonus Songs on New Moon Soundtrack


The New Moon soundtrack just got even bigger – does that mean the movie is going to be even longer? In addition to the 15 exclusive songs already announced, Summit Entertainment will include four new bonus songs on the New Moon soundtrack. Lupe Fiasco, The Magic Numbers and Amadou & Mariam, APM Orchestra, Ulf Bastlein are the four groups that will have their songs included on the much anticipated soundtrack. Twilight fans can preorder the soundtrack on iTunes.

The only disappointing thing about this indie collection of songs is that Rob Pattinson won’t have a song on this soundtrack, we loved his song Never Think on the Twilight soundtrack.
New Moon will hit theaters on November 20.


-------------
Breakout English rockers Muse-- whose smash-hit single, Supermassive Black Hole, was featured on the soundtrack to Twilight -- is slated to meet with New Moon director Chris Weitz regarding a contribution from their new album, The Resistance, to the soundtrack for Twilight's sequel, New Moon.

"I think I'm having a phone call with the director tomorrow," the band's lead singer, Matthew Bellamy, told MTV Sunday. "He wants to use a song off the new album, so we're going to talk about that. That could be cool. We don't know which one, so that's what we're going to talk about ... hopefully we'll work something out."

The Resistance
, hits shelves Sept. 15; their tour for the record starts Sept. 24 at Giants Stadium in New York.

'New Moon' Soundtrack


"I just received the following announcement from Atlantic Records (the record label that produced the Twilight Soundtrack):

The first single has officially been confirmed for the New Moon Soundtrack! Death Cab for Cutie has written an exclusive song for the movie entitled 'Meet Me On the Equinox.' Below is a statement from the band about the song:

"We are very excited to be a part of this amazing series of novels set in our own backyard. It just seemed a perfect synergy that a band from the Northwest would create a song for a series of novels set in the Northwest. We wrote 'Meet Me On the Equinox' to reflect the celestial themes and motifs that run throughout the Twilight series and we wanted to capture that desperate feeling of endings and beginnings that so strongly affect the main characters. This song marks the first attempt that Death Cab for Cutie has ever made at contributing new, unreleased material for a film and we are proud to be a part of the Twilight legacy." — Nick Harmer / Death Cab for Cutie

Additionally, we have the exclusive premiere of the soundtrack album cover below! The soundtrack will be in stores on October 20th, 2009, stay tuned for more information!
