Bands want a bite of 'New Moon' soundtrack

Have you noticed that faint stench? No need for a pit check. That's the smell of pure desperation. And it's making me ill. Legit rockers, including Thom Yorke, Bon Iver, the Killers, Grizzly Bear and Kings of Leon, want nothing more than to add tunes to the "New Moon" soundtrack.

Will rock fall under this campy, vampy teen flick's smell spell? Or will artists raise the musical stakes (yes, the wooden kind used to kill vampires) and strive for other industry achievements? You know, like Grammys. While I climb down from my soapbox and so fans don't skin me alive, here's Death Cab for Cutie's (How the mighty have fallen.) "New Moon" tune "Meet Me on the Equinox."
