We like rock music more than you. It's just the way it is…

David Bowie is getting the tribute treatment. But unlike a lot of other tribute albums this one actually shows promise as bands like MGMT, Soulwax, Duran Duran and artists like John Frusciante step up to the plate and create their own interpretations of the Thin White Duke’s tunes.

TwentyFourBit recently revealed the tracklisting for the album which also includes Chairlift on the song “Always Crashing in the Same Car”, folk weirdo Devandra Barnhart aka Megapuss performing “Sound + Vision” and the First Lady of France, Carla Bruni, on “Absolute Beginners”.

The album will see a May 2010 release and all of the profits go to the War Child charity. However the Duran Duran website tells us that we can expect to see tracks leaking out around February 15 so we’ll be keeping our ears open. Check out the full tracklisting below.
