‘Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World’ Soundtrack Set For Deluxe 10th Anniversary Reissue
A bonus-filled, 4 LP box set includes previously-unreleased music from Beck and Metric ft. Brie Larson.
This year marks the tenth anniversary of Edgar Wright’s cult classic, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, which follows fictional Toronto musician Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) as he fights to win the love of Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), by going head-to-head with her exes in a series of Battle of the Bands competitions. Its equally-beloved soundtrack, meanwhile, features an acclaimed collection of original songs and rock classics. Now, a deluxe, tenth-anniversary edition of the album, available March 26, will feature 24 minutes of previously-unreleased music, plus Nigel Godrich’s inspired score.
Curated by Wright and Godrich, the deluxe Seven Evil Exes Limited Edition Box Set includes four vinyl picture discs – each featuring images of one of the “Seven Evil Exes” characters from the film, as well as Scott Pilgrim and Ramona Flowers, who grace the eighth side.
In addition to the original soundtrack, which offers music from The Rolling Stones, Broken Social Scene, Metric, and T.Rex, plus Beck-penned songs for the movie’s fictional band, Sex Bob-Omb, the collection will include previously-unreleased demos by Beck, more performances by Sex Bob-Omb, plus the fan-favorite song “Black Sheep” by Metric, as sung by actress Brie Larson.
The box also includes a full-color film poster, a new note from Wright, and a coloring page by Bryan O’Malley, the author of the Scott Pilgrim graphic novel series – on which the film was based.
Godrich’s score, which is making its debut on vinyl, will also be available as a standalone, 2-LP set. Additionally, fans can purchase a Ramona Flowers Edition of the original soundtrack, pressed on blue, green, and magenta vinyl, representing the colors of the character’s hair throughout the film. All formats will be available on March 26.
Since its release, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) has been widely praised, including by Alternative Press and The Independent, which ranked it at No. 4 in its “40 Greatest Film Soundtracks of All Time” list. Track “We Are Sex Bob-Omb,” won the 2010 Houston Film Critics Society Award for Best Original Song.
