No Radiohead score for Choke, Reckoner included
Now that was an exciting couple of hours. In an interview early this Morning on BBC 6 Music’s breakfast show, author Chuck Palahniuk ‘revealed’ that Radiohead did the score for the film adaption of his novel ‘Choke’. Industry sources deny the band’s score for the film.
The film, directed by Clark Gregg, debuted at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year featuring a score by Nathan Larson (of Shudder To Think) and that hasn’t changed. The film however does have a Radiohead song in the film’s closing credits, which is ‘Reckoner’ from the band’s latest album ‘In Rainbows’. Movie score specialists The Playlist have received a confirmation on this from the music supervisors on the film, Ken Weinstein and Lyle Hysen. Chuck Palahniuk apparently made a mistake in the interview this morning, but it was an exciting feeling while it lasted.
Beside’s Radiohead’s ‘Reckoner’, the Choke soundtrack includes Clap Your Hands Say Yeah! (’Satan Said Dance’), The Fiery Furnaces (’Navy Nurse’), Ben Kweller (’The Rules’), The Twilight Singers (’There’s Been An Accident’) and Rogue Wave (’Lake Michigan’).

ade did check his sources…BBC6. i’d say pretty reliable source. you can’t fault ade for the fact that Palahniuk (probably the most reputable source for information on this movie) lied in an interview.

Aw, man. I was hoping for another track of the quality of Exit Music.
Reckoner is amazing, though, just not new!

I think the main point is that Chuck is quality anyway…while disappointing, it’s a tad retarded to boycott…not a bad person for Radiohead to affiliate themselves with anyway…and if it gives his new movie (i.e. his thoughts) publicity by accident then that’s a good thing…

That’s good but a little disappointing after thinking that there may be an entire score of a movie!
