So excited about Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist , which opens here on October 3rd. I adore Michael Cera. He plays Nick, who isn't gay, but plays in a queercore band. Norah is played by Kat Dennings, who was also in 40 Year Old Virgin . She and Nick are high school seniors and they end up running around Manattan, trying to get over their ex's and looking for a legendary band's secret show. Of course, Nick and Norah nurse the sexual tension throughout the whole adventure, which just happens to be accompanied by a great soundtrack. The line-up was just announced by Atlantic Records... check it out:
1. Chris Bell – “Speed Of Sound”
2. Devendra Banhart – “Lover”
3. Bishop Allen – “Middle Management”
4. Vampire Weekend - Ottoman”
5. The Dead 60s – “Riot Radio”
6. Takka Takka – “Fever”
7. The Submarines – “Xavia”
8. We Are Scientists – “After Hours”
9. Band Of Horses – “Our Swords”
10. Army Navy – “Silvery Sleds”
11. Richard Hawley – “Baby You're My Light”
12. Shout Out Louds – “Very Loud”
13. Paul Tiernan – “How To Say Goodbye”
14. The Real Tuesday Weld – “Last Words”
15. Mark Mothersbaugh – “Nick & Norah’s Theme”
The album comes out on September 23rd. You can pre-order next Tuesday, August 26th on the Atlantic Records website and get a free t-shirt (you have to be one of the first 200). You can also get the album there in limited edition vinyl.
