With the announcement of the Eclipse track listing yesterday, MTV was ableto get in touch with Canadian band Metric and asked them about their inclusion in the highly anticipated soundtrack. According to frontwoman Emily Haines, “it was really cool to feel the emotion of someone else”.

“I have to say it was unlike any experience I’ve ever had. … I got a phone call from Howard Shore, who is, in my opinion, the best, heavyweight film composer out there. He did the scores for the ‘Lord of the Rings’ and, more importantly to me, he did all the David Cronenberg films: ‘The Fly,’ ‘Naked Lunch.’ He’s an amazing, brilliant musician,” Haines said. “[He] calls me and says, ‘I want to write with you … I want you to write with me, for the song at the end of the movie, the penultimate moment, where the whole score culminates in this incredible scene.’ And I was like, ‘OK.’ “

“I had to … really try to embody the voice of Bella, which I’ve never done. I’ve always been interested in that — writing for film — and it was really cool to feel the emotions of someone else, and then try to express it in a way that’s consistent with Stephenie [Meyer]’s books,” she said. “It was so interesting for me. And [Shore] had also written the [chord] progressions, and we had to work within his melodic ideas, but still make it us. … He really wanted it to be Metric. So it’s, like, Metric and Howard Shore, writing this moment. And when you see the movie, you’ll hear that the melodies from the song we wrote are part of the score. … I can’t believe my luck, and it was really cool to work with him.”

“Well, it was definitely unusual. … With this, it was really feeling this character, and I really like Kristen Stewart. I think she’s got such a great energy around her, and the character is such a good representation of a real girl,” Haines said. “I think a lot of times young women get characterized as shallow or silly, and we all have to deal with, in popular culture, these terrifying Barbies. And I think Kristen Stewart as an actress, and the character that Stephenie created in these books is a really interesting, real character.”

She also would not like to spoil their Twilight contribution.

“I feel like if I comment on that, it’s kind of the equivalent of when you say something about Scientology: Someone’s going to come and get me,” she laughed. “I’m not revealing anything, to anyone, about anything, ever.”
