Yo La Tengo Release Film Score Compilation

Yo La Tengo Release Film Score Compilation

Yo La Tengo will release a compilation of their soundtrack work, titled They Shoot, We Score, via their own Egon imprint on September 5.

It contains music from the movies Old Joy (starring Will Oldham), Junebug (featuring but not starring Will Oldham), Game 6, and Shortbus. (Their music for the forthcoming Ryan Reynolds vehicle Adventureland didn't make the cut.)

Of the 27 instrumental tracks on They Shoot, We Score, 26 are previously unreleased. The CD comes with a booklet containing posters for each movie "from around the world," according to the band's website.

Yo La Tengo will start shipping They Shoot, We Score on the aforementioned September 5 release date. On that date, a digital download option will also become available.

YLT have a handful of shows this summer and fall. Their next one is a free show at Brooklyn's McCarren Park Pool on August 24.
