Bloody hell, I hate Facebook! So, I must confess that not even Trent Reznor’s involvement makes me want to watch The Social Network any more than, say, the next Kevin James movie. Regardless, I will probably check out the score (by Trent Reznor and Atticus Finch), which is now available as a free 5-track EP and will soon be fully downloadable as a complete soundtrack for $2.99 (only on 9/28 & 9/29). Details coming at ya from the Rez:

This is what Atticus and I have been working on for the last few months. We had a great time working with David Fincher on this and the film turned out excellent – something we’re very proud of. It opens in theatres Oct 1 and you should check it out.

Musically, this all came out of our secret laboratory – electronic in basis, but mostly organic sounding. Lots of experiments and emphasis on sound fraying around the edges while focusing on the proper emotional tone for the various scenes.

Regarding the purchase options, sorry about the “clunkiness” of not offering the full record digital download pre-sale (and having to visit Amazon). My agenda was to be able to offer this for the lowest possible price and this was the best way to achieve that. Amazon has been a great partner with past projects and I appreciate your understanding.

- Trent Reznor, 9.16.10

Without further adieu, you can click here for the free 5-song sampler. Of course, the full score will undoubtedly be worth the $2.99 spent, but when it comes to the movie, I’m inclined to let Jeremy Feist do the talking:

Exactly, and enough with the fucking Facebook poking!!! Speaking of which, doesn’t this look like the opposite of riveting cinema to you?
