Main American Teen music getting a update Though Sundance darling American Teen was filmed way back in the documentary will be infused with a bit of at least when it comes to its music. Nanette Burstein s film which follows four seniors at Warsaw Community High School in Indiana is a compelling look at how teens balance the pressures of dealing with college and their parents during their graduating year. As it stands American Teen has a fresh indie focused sound one that keeps the film current without embellishing the inherit drama of teen life. Credits roll to power pop band the New Pornographers lilting My Rights Versus Yours while the score was composed by singer songwriter Michael Penn who has also worked on Boogie Nights and The L! ast Kiss among others. Just a few of the other artists featured in the film include Moby indie rockers the Unicorns and indie hip hop duo Blackalicious . The film s Facebook page fans and counting has a teaser for an upcoming soundtrack. It mentions some bands of the moment such as peppy dance rockers the Ting Tings and spacey buzz band MGMT . The latter s Time to Pretend opened gambling flick . But one interesting note Neither of those bands is actually in American Teen nor are any of the acts teased in the below pic at least as things stand now. Having just caught the film I was eager to hear a little bit of the Tings on the big screen hoping the act would come off better than it does on the small screen . But American Teen came and went without any music from the acts being marketed with it including two from Almost Gold Recordings the new wavy electronics of Does It Offend You Yeah and the retro styled pop of the Black Kids . But expect that to change before the film op! ens for the public this summer. A spokesperson for the film s distributor Paramount Vantage said such acts would most likely find their way into the movie. It s not entirely uncommon for a film s music to be altered as it works its way from Sundance to an official release date and for a word of mouth film a buzzed about soundtrack could do wonders as evidenced by Juno this past winter. Whether the addition of the Ting Tings and the Black Kids will give American Teen some indie cred remains to be seen but it s yet another reason I ll look forward to seeing it a second time. Fans of American Teen need not fear as it will remain otherwise untouched from how it screened at Sundance save for some updates on the whereabouts of the young adults featured in the film. The film is on target for a summer break release date of July . It will get an expanded release in August and there will be more on the film and its soundtrack here on Extended Play closer to its release date.

I've just been letting everything happen witho! ut me recently, but oh well. Whatever. Not that it matters. Basically nothing seems worth bothering with, but I guess it doesn't bother me. I haven't gotten much done these days. I've just been hanging out doing nothing.
