Edgar Wright: The Definitive Guide To Homages, Influences And References

North Irish rock band Ash (of Brimful of Asha fame) donated 3 songs to use in the film€™s score €“ €˜Meltdown€™, €˜Orpheus€™ and €˜Everybody€™s Happy Nowadays.€™ Wright managed to swing this because ex-girlfriend Charlotte Hatherley played guitar and sang backing vocals for the band at the time. Also featuring on the latter song was ex-drinking buddy Chris Martin, who bravely took time out of being a zombie (see earlier slides) to provide some extra stardust for the soundtrack.
