Trent Reznor Releases 5 Songs From The Social Network – Free!

Trent Reznor’s feeling a little charitable with the soundtrack to David Fincher’s The Social Network. A couple weeks ago we brought you a sneak peek at one of the tracks on the album and today we’re giving you the opportunity to hear 5 more. Over on his Null Co. website, he posted a special letter to fans and revealed the entire track listing plus some free music…

This is what Atticus and I have been working on for the last few months. We had a great time working with David Fincher on this and the film turned out excellent – something we’re very proud of. It opens in theatres Oct 1 and you should check it out.

Musically, this all came out of our secret laboratory – electronic in basis, but mostly organic sounding. Lots of experiments and emphasis on sound fraying around the edges while focusing on the proper emotional tone for the various scenes.

Regarding the purchase options, sorry about the “clunkiness” of not offering the full record digital download pre-sale (and having to visit Amazon). My agenda was to be able to offer this for the lowest possible price and this was the best way to achieve that. Amazon has been a great partner with past projects and I appreciate your understanding.
