==Promotion==
The soundtrack was originally confirmed on January 7, 2011, on a ''New York Times'' panel interview with Reznor. A teaser trailer for the film was later released online on June 2nd (previously being attached to certain domestic and international films), featuring a cover of Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song", by Reznor, Ross and [[wp:Karen O|Karen O]] (from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs).
On August 10th, [DragonTattoo.com] (the film's official website), was updated to feature background music, with the filename "Dotcom.mp3". As was the case with "[[Hand Covers Bruise]]" from ''The Social Network'''s official site, this backing music was the first piece from the score to be available for listening.
A full-length trailer for the film was released on September 22nd, featuring music from the score again, the first time the score had been set to footage.

A Tumblr blog entitled "Mouth Taped Shut" was started on 20th August, releasing behind-the-scenes photographs of the shooting and production of the film. On October 3rd, the blog posted a video of posters for the film being printed, with backing music by Reznor and Ross.[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjQvuICJpaI&feature=player_embedded]
The blog was also used extensively to promote a public preview of the film, and had snapshots of the score in progress.
====Comes Forth In The Thaw====

An image posted on Mouth Taped Shut showed Reznor in the studio, working on the score. On the monitor of his computer, however, there was a url posted, www.comesforthinthethaw.com, which when typed in linked to a [http://www.comesforthinthethaw.com site] featuring an array of further background music.
====What Is Hidden In Snow====
Following a clue on ComesForthInTheThaw, the website WhatIsHiddenInSnow.com was found, which led to a series of treasure trails around the world, finding pieces from the film as part of an Alternate Reality Game promotion.

On 26th January, 2012, Tunecore released [[multitracks]] for "Great Bird Of Prey", "Oraculum", "Parallel Timeline With Alternate Outcome", "The Heretics" and "You’re Here".[http://blog.tunecore.com/2012/01/the-girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-stems-2.html]
