METRIC's Emily Haines talks 'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' soundtrack once again


'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' - Summit Ent.

Over the past couple of days, Twilight fans have begun to learn a lot about The Twilight Saga: Eclipse soundtrack band METRIC, thanks to the group's vocalist, Emily Haines.

As you might recall, yesterday Haines' blog entry on MySpace revealed the backstory as to how METRIC formulated its music for the Eclipse soundtrack, and today she's spoken up to MTV about how she feels about the Twilight series' protagonist "Bella" and the person responsible for bringing her to the big screen, Kristen Stewart.

“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.”

    Metric are awesome. I love their stuff, but Sia that Australian singer is also on the soundtrack. Seriously love her pop vibe. Go Sia!
