Broken Social Scene Cover “Love Will Tear Us Apart” for Upcoming Movie


The ever-changing and always satisfying Broken Social Scene will make their big screen debut this summer in the movie The Time Traveler’s Wife. Both Brendan Canning and Kevin Drew will be paired up with Justin Peroff and Andrew Whiteman who will play a wedding band in the film.

The boys apparently cover Joy Division’s amazing, yet slightly ironic as a wedding tune, “Love Will Tear Us Apart.” I’m beyond excited to hear this cut, and it might actually propel me to see a movie in theaters (Last one I saw was the Dark Knight I think). Broken Social Scene has never let me down, and hearing them cover one of my favorite singles of all-time is a great prospect, simply put: amazing.

  1. Don’t forget they featured really heavily in the soundtrack for Half Nelson, in fact as far as I’m concerned they made the film work, far better than it would have if they hadn’t featured. fab band.
