Every time there’s a Scott Pilgrim vs the World story, some folks in the comments start going on about ‘hipsters.’ I think these guys believe ‘hipster’ means ‘Person who leaves the house, talks to members of the opposite sex and perhaps has a record collection that isn’t dominated by The Scorpions or Muppet soundtracks.’
If that’s the case, those commenters are going to shit their pants when they see the track listing for Scott Pilgrim vs the World, as it’s packed with such ‘hipster’ acts as Beck, Broken Social Scene, The Rolling Stones and Frank Black. Egads, the hipness!
The soundtrack is actually pretty great, and I can only imagine how cool it is for Bryan Lee O’Malley that the band he created, Sex Bob-Omb, has been brought to life by Beck.
For the score nerds: Nigel Godrich’s score will be available as a digital download at some point.
