Into the Wild + eddie vedder = Amazing score

For those who don't know about Into the Wild, it is a story about Christopher Mccandless (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Into_the_wild). It's an amazing story. If you havn't read the book, go do so. And see the movie.

We're hear to talk about music though.

The soundtrack was written and performed by Eddie Vedder (lead singer of Pearl Jam).

I'm not usually a fan of Pearl Jam's stuff, but this album really explored the nature of Into the Wild. A remake of the song Society is one of the high points.

The high point of the album is the final song, guaranteed. The song is based on a few chords and Vedders "golden baritone" voice.

Although the songs won't speak to everyone give this album a chance. If are a nature enthusist or are a fan of the book/movie, definetley check this one out.
