Smashing Pumpkins Song Boosted By Appearance In Watchmen Movie

It features in the trailer...

The Smashing Pumpkins 'The Beginning is the End is the Beginning' has been given a huge sales boost thanks to its appearance in the trailer to forthcoming Watchmen movie.

The track, which was originally released in 1997, is currently the band's most popular song on iTunes and ranks highly in the overall Top-100 downloads.

Watchmen, an adaptation of the comic book series of the same name, is due to be released next year.

It's not the first time that the band's song has appeared in a movie based on a comic book.

The song also appeared on the soundtrack to the original Batman and Robin movie, reports the Rolling Stone.

  • @Gigwise It's because the only way they could get Dave Rowntree to play the drums was to hypnotise him. Too strenuous otherwise, poor chap.
