Director David Fincher's cinematic interpretation of Stieg Larsson's "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" won't reach audiences until Christmas, but a taste of the film's score hit the 'net this weekend via a new -- and seemingly bootlegged -- trailer.

 

Watch below to hear Trent Reznor and Karen O's dark, industrial cover of Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song."

 

 

 

For the "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" score, Reznor will reunite with longtime songwriting partner Atticus Ross, following the duo's Academy Award Best Score win for "The Social Network." Reznor and Ross will rely more on string arrangements than the electronic-leaning music of "The Social Network," as revealed to the New York Times this past winter.

 

"We started recording things in a different way that was all based on performance -- nothing programmed," Reznor said during a TimesTalks. "That would be my limited skills with stringed instruments... We'd process them in a way that really gave it an interesting, organic feel that felt like something we've never done before."
