Elbow have revealed their new song, 'What Time Do You Call This', from the soundtrack for new film, Man Up. Listen below.

The film, which is out in the UK on 29 May, stars Lake Bell and Simon Pegg, who start a relationship after Bell (who rose up the ranks after writing and starring in In A World...) pretends to be Pegg's blind date.

Speaking of Elbow's euphoric, cinematic contribution to the song's soundtrack, the film's director Ben Palmer said, "The band saw an early cut in Manchester and, thankfully, loved it. A couple of days later, Guy [Garvey]had already penned the lyrics and we were blown away. It was the perfect fit and a dream climax to the journey."

The Man Up soundtrack also includes tracks from Jungle, The National, Fryars, Paloma Faith, Duran Duran and The B-52's.

Man Up opens in UK cinemas on 29 May.

Meanwhile, this summer also sees Elbow headline Kendal Calling and London's OnBlackheath festival. See the links for tickets and information.
