End Titles... Stories for Film is the fourth studio album from British electronic music act Unkle, inspired by feature films created since Unkle's previous 2007 album War Stories, released on 7 July 2008. The album follows a title and a mixed soundscape, after Unkle's 2005 mix album Edit Music for a Film: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Reconstruction, but unlike that, composed entirely of original material. It features collaborators: Josh Homme (of Queens of the Stone Age), Black Mountain, Gavin Clark, Joel Cadbury (of South), James Petralli (of White Denim), War Stories producer Chris Goss, Dave Bateman, and James Griffith of Lake Trout/Unkle’s touring band.
In the credits to the album James Lavelle stated:
The track "Trouble in Paradise (Variation on a Theme)" is a full length version of a track from the BMW commercial that was aired on British television. "Chemical" originally appeared as an instrumental on Unkle's album War Stories under the title "Chemistry". Josh Homme, who also sang on "Restless" from the same album, now sings vocals over the track. Tracks "Blade In The Back", "Synthetic Water" and "Heaven" made their first appearance on Unkle's Japanese-Australian album More Stories.
The limited edition CD of End Titles... Stories for Film is packaged in a four panel wrap around digipak with an embossed gloss finish and includes a 12-page booklet.
