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.

===Multitracks===

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]

A free 6-track sampler was offered for free on the soundtrack website prior to the album's release, similar to the sampler released for ''The Social Network''. The tracks all were a few seconds shorter or longer than the album variants, due to mixing to make them work better as a simple 6-track release.

Total run time: 1:24:08

In January 2012, a new sampler CD was issued for the Academy Awards which contained the same tracks but rearranged into their sequential order in the film. The official Sony Pictures website was also updated with the sampler for public listening. [http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/academy/guild/thegirlwiththedragontattoo/music/]
