ARGH WHY CANT THIS BE LONGER GOOD LORD ARE WE EXCITED FOR THIS MOVIE

At first NME’s headline on this thing made us pause a second. “Yeah Yeah Yeah’s Karen O to Soundtrack Anti-Fat Adverts” ends up coming across a little harsh. We get it. You’re skinny. No need to be snippy about it.

But then it turns out she’s just lending “All Is Love” (the same track soundtracking Where The Wild Things Are) to an ad campaign that’s hoping to fight youth obesity in our old U.S. of A. And we decided we can get behind that too. So check it out (on NME for now, and soon your very own TV) and leave the cream cheese off the bagel tomorrow morning or something.

Look at those eyes and lips. Above is the artwork for the forthcoming Original Motion Picture Soundtrack for Where The Wild Things Are. The film’s out on October 16th and strangely enough, that date keeps getting closer and closer. We’ve heard the single, “All is Love” through the Wild Things MySpace. And now, after seeing that Wild Thing punim, we can only expect good things for the rest of the album; featuring collabs with Deerhunter’s Bradford Cox, Karen’s YYY bandmates, Nick Zinner and Brian Chase as well as The Dead Weather’s Dean Fertita.

From the Where The Wild Things Are soundtrack, Karen O and her band of Kids actually sound like ecstatic children running into the sunset on this first listen.

Listen: Karen O & The Kids – All Is Love

At about the time the Where The Wild Things Are trailer started dominating nerdier corners of the Web a few months back, we weren’t feeling all that much for the Arcade Fire anymore. The magic was gone. But when that newfangled, painfully evocative rendition of “Wake Up” popped up in said trailer, we flipped our flop and came running back. We cried, we longed to be kids again and perhaps more realistically, we wanted to see the movie as soon as possible. That day (October 16th) still feels light years away but the soundtrack for the film, a collaboration by Yeah Yeah Yeahs front lady Karen O and the Kids, a band of collaborators that includes Bradford Cox of Deerhunter, Aaron Hemphill of Liars and fellow Yeah Yeah Yeahs Brian Chase and Nick Zinner just to name a few, is set to be officially released just over two weeks earlier on September 29th. Put your ear up to the computer speakers during the below featurette to get an early taste. (via P4k)
