While we can’t say we’re too excited about Robert Luketic’s forthcoming assassin comedy “Killers” with Katherine Heigl and Ashton Kutcher, we are curious what’s under the musical hood of most films.
Set for a digital release on June 1st, a few days in advance of the film’s theatrical bow on June 4th, the “Killers” soundtrack boasts a couple of interesting nuggets. Macy Gray kicks off the album with the debut of “Beauty In The World,” the first single for her forthcoming LP “The Sellout” which will hit stores on June 22nd. Salvador Santana (yes, the son of Carlos) has “Under The Sun.” The Faces’ “Ooh La La” — which will forever be seared in our memory to the beautiful closing of Wes Anderson’s “Rushmore” — also features on the set as does “Montego Sunset” by the excellent R&B/soul group Menahan Street Band whose members are better known for their role in The Dap Kings backing up Sharon Jones. Score composer Rolfe Kent closes out the set with some of his pieces for the film.
