Yeah, we laughed. A small handful of us at the Playlist were once aspiring musicians with bands and everything (in our much younger, more naive days), so we totally relate to the extreme punk/emo/sadness of Scott Pilgrim’s rival band Crash and the Boys.
A clip of their song “I’m So Sad, So Very, Very Sad” (written by Broken Social Scene, sung by actor Erik Knudsen) has hit and it’s pretty awesome. And coming in about five seconds long, thirteen seconds if you include the “banter,” it gets to the point pretty quickly.
The “Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World” official soundtrack and score soundtrack both hit on August 10th with the film arriving a few days later on August 13th. [Pitchfork]
