Heavenly Recordings will release a soundtrack album for the Irish comedy drama Kneecap. The album features the songs from the movie performed by the titular band, as well as tracks by Orbital, Bicep, Dirty Faces, Fontaines D.C., The Bonny Men & others. Also included is the movie’s original score composed by Michael ‘Mikey J’ Asante (Criminal Record, Queen Cleopatra). The soundtrack will be released digitally tomorrow, August 30. Visit Amazon or any other major digital music services to stream/download the album. Kneecap is written and directed by Rich Peppiatt and stars Liam Óg Ó Hannaidh, JJ Ó Dochartaigh, Naoise Ó Cairealláin, Michael Fassbender, Simone Kirby and Josie Walker. The movie follows the titular Belfast trio as it becomes the unlikely figurehead of a civil rights movement to save the mother tongue. The dramedy, which premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, was released in U.S. theaters in early August by Sony Pictures Classics and also just opened in UK theaters last week.
