Ty Segall composed the score for The Wrong Girls, a new film from director Dylan Meyer that opened in theaters Friday, Stereogum reported. The soundtrack surrounds his score with a scene featuring Mannequin Pussy and songs from Sheer Mag and Tacocat.

A film score is a rarer credit for Segall than a new record; he has built his career mainly as a recording artist rather than as a composer for hire, and the same is true of Mannequin Pussy and Sheer Mag, both known primarily for their own albums rather than soundtrack placements.

Stereogum's report did not detail whether a standalone soundtrack release is planned alongside the film, leaving that question open for now. The Wrong Girls is playing in theaters now, and the pairing adds Segall's name to the week's rock news.
