Thom Yorke writes three new songs for soundtrack
It’s like a google alert in my brain goes off when the name Thom Yorke is mentioned on the world wide web. In this case our buddies over at TwentyFourBit grabbed the inside scoop on a soundtrack that Thom is writing three new songs for.
TFB spoke with director Dirk Simon about his upcoming documentary When The Dragon Swallowed The Sun. The film is about the country of Tibet’s struggle to gain their freedom from China. Simon revealed that the soundtrack features three brand new songs from the Radiohead frontman plus a brand new song from Irish singer/songwriter Damien Rice and original pieces from American composer Philip Glass.
I have a feeling that we won’t see the last of Thom Yorke on soundtracks in the future. After the New Moon soundtrack selling tons of copies, I’m pretty sure he now looks at soundtracks as a lucrative opportunity. Plus it allows him to create his own music without attaching the Radiohead name to it.
Check out the website and the trailer for When The Dragon Swallowed The Sun right here.
