Fever Ray Contributes Song to Red Riding Hood

"What's that song in the trailer?" seems to be the question of the moment. The answer (which has been previously posted) is Fever Ray. Below is an excerpt of an article discussing the musician and Catherine Hardwicke's  aesthetic and musical inspirations. 

"So far the Fever Ray contribution has been slated as only a song, but there have been rumblings, from Hardwicke herself, that Andersson will make a cameo in the film as her Fever Ray persona. She will appear amongst the wreckage of the wolf effigy, with all the villagers dancing and chanting alongside her as she herself, clad in a harvest-style costume, performs her song. Hardwicke seems to be much inspired by Andersson’s style and music, using it to capture the suspenseful distortion of the tale as well as potentially inspire the highly stylized and striking costuming. The scene with Seyfried amidst the flaming wood pieces has her masked in a simplistic yet creepy and startling wolf mask. It seems part Venetian mask inspired but also a nod to Andersson’s quirky and dynamic style on stage."

What's the song in the trailer?



UPDATE: The Fever Ray song is called "The Wolf" and you can listen to a sample here.

From a recent interview with Catherine Hardwicke:

RK: What’s the song in the trailer?
CH: That’s the song performed at our Burning Man concert. It’s the Swedish band Fever Ray. Karin [Dreijer Andersson], the leader of the band, collaborated with our composer Brian Reitzell to create this song that you see musicians performing live in the movie with the Bosch instruments. I loved it cause it was haunting. I felt like it was ancient, but edgy and modern.

And a little more about the music in the trailer here. 

No word yet on when the song or soundtrack will be released. The only available information is what Catherine Hardwicke has said in the above interview. No song name or complete recording has been released. 

While we wait for the song to be released in its entirety, check out more music from Fever Ray below:
