Pearl Jam's Mike McCready Creates Fringe Score

Tonight's episode "Northwest Passage" was scored by Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready. Originally, the plan was to use the Pearl Jam song "Just Breathe", but according to Rolling Stone Magazine:

After some back and forth they wound up with something even better: guitarist Mike McCready offered to compose the score for the entire episode.
