south Park Gets a Soundtrack
That small town in Colorado where anal probes and warbling feces can be found is getting its own soundtrack. The Hollywood trades report that Comedy Central's South Park has signed a deal with producer Rick Rubin to compile multiple soundtracks featuring various artists for Columbia Records.
Rubin, who recently signed a long-term agreement with Sony Records after leaving Warner Bros., says the first South Park album should be in stores this fall. He hopes to "integrate music and comedy reflecting the admittedly twisted sensibility of the show." No artists have been mentioned as possible contributors to the first soundtrack, but obvious contenders include: Primus, who perform the show's theme song; Isaac Hayes, who voices the singing Chef; and Robert Smith of the Cure, who has appeared as himself on the crudely animated show.
