TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON SOUNDTRACK IS OUT

Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance, Paramore, Goo Goo Dolls, Others, Featured on WB Album

Transformers: Dark of the Moon, the third film in Michael Bay's summer blockbuster Transformers series doesn't hits theaters nationwide until June 29, but the eagerly awaited soundtrack album is out today on Warner Bros. Records.

Released in Standard, iTunes Deluxe and Game Stop configurations, the album features music from Linkin Park, including the first single "Iridescent," My Chemical Romance, Taking Back Sunday, Art of Dying, Theory of a Deadman, Black Veil Brides, Skillet, Staind and Mastodon (who contribute a cover of ZZ Top's "Just Got Paid"), as well as new music from Paramore and Goo Goo Dolls debuting exclusively on the album. The iTunes Deluxe edition also includes tracks from Biffy Clyro, Stone Sour and Serj Tankian, while the Game Stop version includes songs from Middle Class Rut and D.R.U.G.S.

The official video to Linkin Park's "Iridescent" (which also appears on their 2010 album A Thousand Suns) has already racked up more than two million views on YouTube since being uploaded on June 3.

On the contribution, composer Steve Jablonsky says, "I respond to Linkin Park because they have a cinematic sensibility to their music that just translates to the big screen."

This is Linkin Park's third time working with Transformers director Bay. The first Transformers film featured the band's smash hit single "What I've Done," which rocketed to #1 on the Mainstream Rock and Modern Rock charts, while the second film featured the specially written "New Divide," which topped the Rock, Modern, and Mainstream radio charts simultaneously.

Fueled By Ramen recording artists Paramore's audio version of "Monster" has collected more than two million views on YouTube and was the #4 Most Watched music video the week following its launch on June 3.

Opening in theaters on June 29, Transformers: Dark of the Moon stars Shia LaBeouf, John Turturro, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Patrick Dempsey, and Kevin Dunn, with John Malkovich and Frances McDormand.
