The Shins, Built to Spill Set to Appear on 'Awesome' Soundtrack
Cartoon Network's late-night hit "Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!" is leaving your television and coming to your stereo — and it's taking indie-rock all-stars The Shins and Built to Spill along for the ride.
Williams Street, Cartoon Network's merch store, is releasing the absurdist sketch show's first soundtrack, aptly titled Awesome Record, Great Songs! Volume One.
Awesome Record contains an impressive 43 tracks, inspired and taken from the wacky comedy program. The Shins (no strangers to soundtracks, having appeared on the one for the "SpongeBob" movie), have recorded their version of the, um, classic Tim and Eric song "Wipe My Butt." Meanwhile, Built to Spill offer their take on the karaoke track "Come Over." Joining the hijinks are funny guys David Cross and Bob Odenkirk (of "Mr. Show"), and a guest appearance by Aimee Mann.
The show debuted on Cartoon Network last year and has featured a host of notable guests, including Dave Navarro, Rob Zombie, "Weird" Al Yankovic and more. The show has fared well in the network's late-night Adult Swim lineup, which also features the equally absurd and hilarious, "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" and "Robot Chicken."
