Beak> - Kosmik Musik

The UK prog rock trio of Geoff Barrow, Billy Fuller, and Will Young, better known as Beak> are providing sonic accompaniment to the upcoming new graphic novel by writer and filmmaker Ben Wheatley and artist Joe Currie called "Kosmik Musik."  The whole thing sounds pretty cool.  Here's what the description on Bandcamp says:

Kosmik Musik is melting pot of 2000ad, Metal Hurlant, Kirby tech, psychedelic 60s art, Doctor Who, Douglas Adams, Kraut Rock, Star Trek and Star Wars. A UK 70s English childhood basically.  The galaxy is a big place–but not big enough for Mick and Eve as they are chased across it by cops, inter-dimensional plunderers, rogue artificial intelligences, middle-aged assassins and a third-tier superhero team.  Come with us on a rip roaring, planet hopping adventure. Punches will be thrown, tears will be shed and music will be played on vinyl on vintage record players as Mick and Eve try to solve every sentient creature’s fundamental questions like why and what... and eh? Yes, dear reader, Kosmik Musik will unlock some of the more pressing mysteries of the universe. True Fact.

Sounds excellent.  Sign me up.  And in the meantime, listen to the full and epic proggy, synthy "score" below.  Then download it here.
