Yo La Tengo To Release Film Soundtrack Compilation, Play Final McCarren Pool Party

Yo La Tengo are finally making all of their film score work available on a compilation CD, released through their own label, Egon. Cleverly titled They Shoot, We Score, the compilation will not only include the original soundtracks to Game 6, Junebug, Old Joy, and Shortbus, but it will also include a handful of outtakes.

The CD contains 27 instrumental tracks (26 of which are unreleased) and comes with a booklet of international posters. It’ll also feature four different covers, one for each movie, and here’s an animated GIF to prove it:

CDs ship September 5, at which time a digital download option will become available. You can pre-order the CD now.

In other news, Yo La Tengo will be playing the final free McCarren Park Pool Party along with Titus Andronicus and Ebony Bones on August 24. The gig is a week before Sonic Youth plays the venue’s final show August 30.
