End Titles... Stories for Film is a compilation album by British

White Denim), War Stories producer Chris Goss, Dave Bateman, and James Griffith of Lake Trout
/Unkle's touring band.

Background

In the credits to the album James Lavelle stated:

This is not the new Unkle album. It is a collection of pieces of music recorded in the two years since we completed War Stories. As we were finishing that album, Pablo Clements, my brother Aidan and I set up a studio, Surrender Sounds. [...] One of the most enjoyable areas we have been exploring over the years is the area of audio-visual collaborations, music for film, television, computer games and the like. However, there is a rather frustrating side to this type of creative endeavour. A lot of the music you're making ends up sitting on the shelf, neither properly released nor heard. A waste, really we thought. So this album is our attempt to alleviate our musical frustrations whilst hoping that it will find a wider audience.
