Good news for music-loving Marvel Comics fans: Unlike the ''X-Men'' movie, Sony Pictures' upcoming ''Spider-Man'' will be accompanied by a song-driven soundtrack album, slated for an April 30 release.
Among the confirmed artists are Alien Ant Farm, who recorded a new track, ''Bug Bites''; Sum 41, who will contribute a Rick Rubin-produced tune, ''It's What We're All About''; a ''supergroup'' with Nickelback's Chad Kroeger, Saliva's Josey Scott, and Alice in Chains' Jerry Cantrell, who've recorded a song called ''Hero''; and Macy Gray, whose previously released ''My Nutmeg Phantasy'' is slated for inclusion.
A Sony Pictures exec reports that Gray ''will also have a role in the film'' but refused to confirm a rumor that strands of Gray's 'fro will be used to provide Spidey's superstrength webbing.
