Vampire Weekend admits to getting Twitter hate for being on 'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' soundtrack

'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' OST - Summit Ent./Atlantic Records

Remember how last year's Comic Con appearance by The Twilight Saga: New Moon caused a bit of fuss with the regulars? Well, this story runs a bit similar to that.
Vampire Weekend, who contributed the song "Jonathan Low" to the soundtrack for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, had an inteview with Video Hits recently where they admitted to receiving a bit of backlash on their Twitter site after the announcement that they'd be a part of the album.
"I checked Twitter in a couple days, and I looked on and there was a lot of negativity," they revealed. "I mean, you know, Soul to Squeeze is on the Conan soundtrack. I’m not trying to say that this is as good a song as Soul to Squeeze . . . all I’m saying is that the Twitterverse needs to chill out."
About the series, the band members revealed that they'd seen the first film and found Kristen Stewart to be "beautiful."
