| New York, NY ¡V Wind-up Records, in conjunction with Twentieth
Century Fox and Marvel Enterprises is proud to announce the complete
track listing for the soundtrack Fantastic Four ¡V The Album. The
soundtrack is the ideal audio companion to the cool and thrilling
visual ride of the action-packed movie. Songs were written and
recorded specifically for the film or were inspired by the film¡¦s
storyline and characters. The soundtrack¡¦s musical scope will
delight and enthrall fans of rock, hip hop and pop with new songs
from platinum and gold recording artists including Velvet Revolver
(their first new music since the release of their double-platinum
album, Contraband), Joss Stone, Ben Moody featuring Anastacia,
Sum 41, Taking Back Sunday, Simple Plan, Chingy, and Ryan Cabrera.
In a synergistic first, Taking Back Sunday wrote the song "Error
Operator" for the movie, the soundtrack and the Fantastic
Four video game created by Activision. Two songs introduce newly
formed groups; Loser (former Marilyn Manson guitarist/writer
John 5) and T.F.F., (a one time collaboration featuring Brody
Dalle of the Distillers, Chris Cester of Jet, Nick Zinner of
the Yeah Yeah Yeah's, and Dolf de Datsun of the Datsuns). Also
of note is the stateside debut of the enormously popular Japanese
act Orange Range. Additional songs were contributed by Alter
Bridge, Lloyd Banks, Submersed, Breaking Point and others. The
lead single and first music video from Fantastic Four ¡V The
Album is "Everything Burns" by Ben Moody featuring
Anastacia.
The motion picture Fantastic Four is based on Marvel¡¦s longest
running comic book series, which has well-earned its moniker
as "The Greatest Comic in the World." While several
Marvel comics-to-film adaptations have preceded FANTASTIC FOUR,
most notably the "X-Men" and "Spider-Man"
features, FANTASTIC FOUR required, for self-evident reasons,
four times the special effects power of any previous comic-to-film
epics; indeed, the film¡¦s finalized effects are so groundbreaking
that the technology used to create them didn¡¦t even exist a
year ago. But for all its state-of-the-art effects, what makes
a film like the FANTASTIC FOUR is the humor and emotion. The
characters are, after all, the superhero world¡¦s most famous
dysfunctional family. The film stars Ioan Gruffudd (Horatio
Hornblower, King Arthur, Titanic), Jessica Alba (Sin City, Honey),
Chris Evans (Cellular, The Perfect Score), Michael Chiklis (The
Shield), Julian McMahon (Nip/Tuck) and Kerry Wahington (Ray,
Mr. and Mrs. Smith). Fantastic Four is directed by Tim Story
(Barbershop, Taxi). |
