Brie Larson as Envy Adams provides the vocals for "Black Sheep" in the film, while the soundtrack features a version of the song with Haines as lead singer, per the band's request; Larson was a professional singer and has performed in some of her other films. Metric had been performing the song at their concerts since 2007, but had not released it before the film. Todd Martens of the Los Angeles Times said that "Envy is a caricature of Haines" and likewise, according to Haines, that "'Black Sheep' is essentially a caricature of Metric", like a song emulating their most distinct aspects. Godrich agreed, and added that it "was perfect for this film it's not Metric. It's a shadow of Metric." Routh, who plays The Clash at Demonhead's bass player Todd Ingram, said " can play really well", but the film did not use his instrumental, only Larson's vocals over Metric, who had re-recorded the track to make it more sinister. Routh spent "three or four months" learning to play bass for the film.
