Milan Records to release the soundtrack for the Dreamworks Picture
'Eurotrip'
Album includes pop/punk rock, hip-hop and new renditions of The Who’s My
Generation by French rock band, Chapeaumelon, Wakefield’s cover of Iggy
Pop’s Real Wild Child (Wild One) and 99 Red Balloons performed by
Goldfinger, among others.
On February 24, 2004, Milan Records will release the soundtrack to the new
DreamWorks film, ‘Eurotrip’. Including the teenage angst/college pop rock
featured in the film as well as some key dialogue from various cast
members, this album showcases rock favorites, indie punk bands,
international oddities and up-and-comers — including Lustra, who performs
the film’s signature song, Scotty Doesn’t Know, it was announced today by
Emmanuel Chamboredon, Founder and President of Milan Entertainment.
Additional artists include Wakefield who toured with Evanesence in 2003,
Canada’s punk rock band, The Salads, German-adored David Hasselhoff, the
hip-hop indie group, Ugly Duckling, Cauterize and more.
‘Eurotrip’ comes from the creators of ‘Road Trip’ and ‘Old School’ and
stars new comers Scott Mechlowicz, Jacob Pitts, Travis Wester and Buffy
the Vampire Slayer’s Michelle Trachtenberg. The film begins with high
school student Scott Thomas (Mechlowisz), who has been using a German pen
pal to help get an "A" in German class by translating his homework over
the Internet. But when the pen pal suggests they meet, Scott’s initial
reaction is to freak out. Thinking "Mieke" is a guy and some sort of older
sexual stalker, he tells Mieke to never contact him again. When he
discovers to his horror that his pen pal is actually a cute fraulein,
(young female) he and his best friend, Cooper, (Pitts) fly off to Europe
to mend fences and find the woman of Scott’s dreams. While in Europe,
Scott & Cooper meet up with their school friends — twins Jenny
(Trachtenberg) and Jamie (Wester). In an exciting and wacky trip, the four
of them embark on a quest across Europe to find Mieke. Encountering
everything from train riding molesters, to robot mimes, to insane,
non-English speaking German truck drivers, these four recent high-school
grads have to overcome unforgettable adversity to get to Berlin. The film
opens as a wide release February 20, 2004.
L.A. based Boston rockers, Lustra have brought their East Coast rocking to
Southern California with a taste for smoldering guitars and hard-charging
rhythms. Their influences range from the Pixies to Fu Manchu to Cheap
Trick. Beginning their career in Boston, MA, Lustra received favorable
press and radio support and toured both locally and nationally in support
of acts including Queens of the Stone Age and Staind. Lustra is featured
in Eurotrip performing Scott Doesn’t Know live for the cast’s high-school
graduation party.
