So I know there are quite a few bloggers, including myself, who are really excited about the new Where the Wild Things Are movie, and the soundtrack for it should garner just as much excitement. You know why? Because it is so damn great. I got a copy of it this morning, and I think it's really impressive as a soundtrack and as an album on it's own.

I want to share the wealth with you guys because I know you all are nerding out over this movie just as much as I am, so:
Karen O and the Kids - Where the Wild Things Are (2009) [V0]
In V0 so your ears will thank me later. ;)

GO SEE THE MOVIE WHEN IT COMES OUT, AND BUY THE SOUNDTRACK IF YOU CAN!!!

And here's a little background information about who all is included in the soundtrack:
To compose the music, O enlisted friends and fellow musicians she believed had a musical intuition that would bolster her intent to marry sound to vision. Dubbed Karen O and the Kids, these include Tristan Bechet (Services), Tom Biller (co-producer with Karen O and member of Afternoons), Bradford Cox (Deerhunter), Brian Chase (Yeah Yeah Yeahs), Dean Fertita (Queens of the Stone Age, The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs), Aaron Hemphill (Liars), Greg Kurstin (The Bird and the Bee), Jack Lawrence (The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs, The Greenhornes), Oscar Michel (The Gris Gris), Imaad Wasif (The Folk Implosion, Alaska), Nick Zinner, (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) and an untrained children's choir.
