Here is the official cover art for the New Moon soundtrack!

Stephenie Meyer’s website has a new post detailing the Death Cab for Cutie news where she also exclusively reveals this cover art.

The New Moon soundtrack is now available for pre-order for $9.99, and will be released October 20th.

Legendary indie rockers Death Cab for Cutie have confirmed to MTV that they will be contributing a brand new track called “Meet me on the Equinox” to the New Moon soundtrack.

“We didn’t expect it would be chosen for the first single — we were thinking it would be a part of the soundtrack, maybe,” Harmer laughed. “I have no idea if ['Twilight' author] Stephenie Meyer approved it or what. It’s been an exciting process, because we’ve been so removed from it. We were in L.A. for a week and we went into the studio and wrote and recorded the song and submitted it. We didn’t know where anything stood, and then we just got a call last week like, ‘Guess what — your song has been chosen as the first single.’ “

Harmer is the first to admit that Death Cab and “Twilight” seem like an unusual pairing (only guitarist/producer Chris Walla has read the entire series), but upon closer inspection, they actually have plenty in common: most of which has to do with geography and, of course, matters of the heart.

“The big connection for us is ‘Here’s a wildly popular book series about vampires — which are awesome — set in the Northwest,’ and we happen to be from the Northwest as well, so there’s this sort of hometown pride kind of thing going on,” Harmer said. “I’m kind of happy that Stephenie Meyer put Forks, Washington, on the map for the entire globe.

“I’m pretty sure Ben didn’t try to write a song from the perspective of one of the characters from the novel. The emotional stuff is what he homed in on, because that’s what we do,” he said. “It’s an uptempo song … it fits right into the Death Cab canon. The lyrics are darker and brooding, the music is a little more up. I don’t know if it’s a rock song … when you hear it, you’ll think, ‘Yep, that’s a Death Cab song.’ “

In an unusaul twist, this song will be the first single from the soundtrack. Yes, you read that right–there will be singles from the soundtrack, just like a real record! You’ll be able to hear the song September 13th on MTV.com during the VMA’s.

Radiohead, Death Cab for Cutie, Coldplay….this soundtrack is defintely shaping up to be huge! Add some Grizzly Bear and Animal Collective and I’ll be in heaven.

Check it! Here’s the very first high quality promo pic of Alec of the Volturi in New Moon, as played by Cameron Bright.

The black and crimson looks very regal yet foreboding, and the background takes the brown naturalistic elements of the poster and earlier promo pics to Italy to give an old-world feel.
