Just Press Play

Death Cab For Cutie’s single, Meet Me On The Equinox has landed the lead single for the much awaited ‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon‘ soundtrack. The band has released a 40 second song clip preview for Meet Me On The Equinox on their official website. It sounds pretty good! Check it out HERE.

The full song will make its debut at the 2009 MTV VMAS on September 13th.

The band also released some details of the song’s music video, telling MTV News, “The whole idea behind the video is that this house that we’re in, this crazy ski lodge of a building here, it’s going to get cut together with scenes from the film, sort of like it’s a place that might be in Forks, sort of a place that might be next door to Bella’s house or something,”.

“All the light stuff that’s happening through the windows, it’s the ‘day-turning-into-night-turning-into-day thing,’ the idea is that it’s supposed to look like a time-lapse thing, only it’s not actually a time-lapse thing, and it’s quite a trick. There’s a 50-foot crane outside that some series of structural engineers are operating. It’s pretty remarkable, I mean, like it’s daylight right here, and it’s pitch-black right behind us. It’s kinda nuts.”

This band are currently filming the video in Toronto, Canada. Previously, bassist Nick Harmer said the band want to have the movie’s stars Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner to appear in the video. There hasn’t been any premiere date for the video.Rumor had it that Radiohead’s Thom Yorke, Kings of Leon, Muse and Bon Iver will contribute to the New Moon movie soundtrack. But until more news come in.. or when the official New Moon soundtrack is released on October 20th, 2009, there are no confirmations just yet. But from the sounds of it, this soundtrack is sooo up my alley.
