"Spider-Man 3" Soundtrack Goes Indie

Considering that the lead single for the Spider-Man 2 soundtrack featured Chad Kroeger of Nickelback, the newly announced tracklisting for the third installment is refreshingly indie. Boasting original contributions by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, the Walkmen, and Wolfmother among others, the soundtrack is due out May 1st on the Record Collection label. The lead single is Snow Patrol's "Signal Fire," but the track we're most intrigued by is the Flaming Lips' "Spider-man vs. Muhammad Ali." Unfortunately, according to the website, the boxer is not a featured villain in the movie.

This is the tracklisting:

01 Snow Patrol: "Signal Fire"
02 The Killers: "Move Away"
03 Yeah Yeah Yeahs: "Sealings"
04 Wolfmother: "Pleased to Meet You"
05 The Walkmen: "Red River"
06 Black Mountain: "Stay Free"
07 The Flaming Lips: "Spiderman vs. Muhammad Ali"
08 Simon Dawes: "Scared of Myself"
09 Chubby Checker: "The Twist"
10 Rogue Wave: "Sight Lines"
11 Coconut Records: "Summer Day"
12 Jet: "Falling Star"
13 Sounds Under Radio: "Portrait of a Summer Thief"
14 Wasted Youth Orchestra: "A Letter to St. Jude"
15 The Oohlas: "Small Parts"
