anthony gonzales can pretend all he wants that his hand in soundtracking oblivion isn’t the
master hand that controls the direction and sound of m83 – but let’s get real here, folks. it’s as m83 as tom cruise’s laugh is just plain goofy. up above, watch susanne sundfør, who blends in beautifully amongst the artsy m83 folk with her asymmetrical hairstyle, deliver her lofty “oblivion” vocal duties with m83 on jimmy kimmel last night.

tell your patience to “STAND DOWN!” and stream the full oblivion soundtrack by m83′s anthony gonzalez and composer joseph trapanese at the link below.
listen:
what begins with the thx “wrrrraahhhhhhhhh” pulse is actually the shimmering m83 title song for the futuro-tom cruise vehicle oblivion. hear the grandiose song, featuring norwegian singer susanne sundfør, up above, and stick around for the piano refrain at the end. it’s fucking pretty.
what’s with all the bubble cockpits in the oblivion? those aren’t safe at all. anyways, “STAND DOWN!”
