On December 2, a six-song sampler of the album was made available for free online along with the pre-release of various different formats of the soundtrack.

The score was nominated for the 2011 Golden Globe award for Best Original Score – Motion Picture,{{cite web|url=http://www.goldenglobes.com/browse/year/2010|title=The 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards (2011)|publisher=Hollywood Foreign Press Association|access-date=2011-12-15|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131004224132/http://www.goldenglobes.com/browse/?param=%2Fyear%2F2010|archive-date=2013-10-04}} and won the 2012 Grammy award for Best Score Soundtrack For Visual Media.{{cite web|url=http://www.grammy.com/nominees/search?artist=&field_nominee_work_value=&year=2012&genre=11|title=Past Winners Search |publisher=The Recording Academy|access-date=2013-07-14}} The album debuted on the UK Albums Chart on 7 January 2012 at #199.

Promotion

A teaser trailer for the film was released online on June 2, 2011, (previously being attached to certain domestic and international films), featuring a cover of Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song", by Reznor, Ross and Karen O (from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs).[https://pitchfork.com/news/42655-trent-reznor-and-karen-o-cover-led-zeppelin Trent Reznor and Karen O Cover Led Zeppelin]. Tom Breihan. Pitchfork Media. May 27, 2011. Last accessed December 04, 2011.

On August 10, the film's official website was updated to feature background music "She Reminds Me of You", under the filename "Dotcom.mp3". As was the case with "Hand Covers Bruise" from The Social Network's official site, this backing music was the first piece from the score to be available for listening.

A full-length trailer for the film was released on September 22, featuring music from the score again, the first time the score had been specifically set to footage. Specifically the track "An Itch."

One track from the score ("What If We Could?") has been performed live by Reznor's band Nine Inch Nails on their Twenty Thirteen Tour in summer 2013.

Packaging

The album's art was created by Nine Inch Nails and How to Destroy Angels' creative director Rob Sheridan and Neil Kellerhouse.

Release

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo was opened for pre-orders online on December 2, 2011, on Reznor's independent label website Null Corporation in a number of different formats at various price points. The digital copy was released on December 9, whilst retail copies of the album were distributed by Mute Records on December 27 in CD format followed by the "Deluxe" edition on February 6. The smallest Dragon Tattoo package contains the entire album in 320 kbit/s MP3 format made available for download directly from the website for US$12. A lossless digital version includes a choice of Apple Lossless or FLAC for US$14. A standard physical version is available for US$14 and includes three audio CDs stored in an eight panel digipak with custom "ice" slipcase and a six panel insert, alongside a digital version delivered in 320 kbit/s MP3. A $300 "Deluxe Edition" includes a 6-LP 180 gram vinyl set in a deluxe book package with metal cover in a hard plastic "ice" slip cover, an exclusive custom 8 GB metal razor blade USB pendant (inspired by Lisbeth Salander (Rooney Mara)'s razor blade necklace) containing the full album in high-fidelity 96k audio, a fold-out poster designed by Neil Kellerhouse, and a HD digital copy in either Apple Lossless, FLAC, or 320 kbit/s MP3 formats.

On the day of the six-track sampler's launch, Reznor posted about the release on the Nine Inch Nails website:

{{blockquote|For the last fourteen months Atticus and I have been hard at work on David Fincher's The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. We laughed, we cried, we lost our minds and in the process made some of the most beautiful and disturbing music of our careers. The result is a sprawling three-hour opus that I am happy to announce is available for pre-order right now for as low as $11.99. The full release will be available in one week - December 9th. [...] Atticus and I are very proud of the film and our work, we hope you enjoy.{{cite web| url = http://nin.com/?id=102677| title = The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" Pre-Orders and Free Sampler| author = Trent Reznor| year = 2011| access-date = 2011-12-04}}}}

Critical response to the score was generally favorable, with an average rating of 76% based on 11 professional reviews on Metacritic.{{cite web|url=https://www.metacritic.com/music/the-girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-ost|title=The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo [OST] by Trent Reznor|website=Metacritic |access-date=28 August 2017}} Christian Cottingham of Drowned in Sound noticed that, "like the film the soundtrack favours atmosphere over cheap thrill, taking its time to mount a sense of rising dread, layers of drone building overtop machinery echo and worn piano faded between scattered melodies and sparse percussion. In isolation it's an accompaniment to 3am melancholy or the onset of madness: in context it's Fincher's bleached out whites and blacks and murky greens turned to sound, bleaker than their previous work and more ambitious even than NIN's Ghosts." Cottingham asserted that Dragon Tattoo, "most(ly) recalls Reznor's soundtrack for Quake in the late 1990s, where space and silence played a role as great as any multitrack in conveying tension and unsettling the mood. At times tender but mostly pretty terrifying, this needs to be heard somewhere loud, and preferably with an exit in easy reach."{{cite web |author=Christian Cottingham |url=http://drownedinsound.com/in_depth/4144251-dis-report--the-girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-film-premiere |title=DiS Report: The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo - Film Premiere / In Depth |date=2011-12-15 |access-date=2011-12-17 |archive-date=2012-01-10 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120110174807/http://drownedinsound.com/in_depth/4144251-dis-report--the-girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-film-premiere |url-status=dead }}

Conversely professional film music critics like Christian Clemmensen, of Filmtracks, and Jonathan Broxton, of Movie Music UK, dismissed it entirely, the latter considering the score as: "little more than a series of ambient drones, overlaid with various industrial sound effects and staccato rhythms – de-tuned piano chords, plucked bass notes, and the like." He also stated: "When the score isn't jarringly distracting, it's virtually inaudible or indistinguishable from the film's sound effects, begging the question of why the music is there in the first place."{{cite web|author=Jonathon Broxton |url=http://moviemusicuk.us/2011/12/27/the-girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-trent-reznor-and-atticus-ross/#more-3006 |title=THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO -- Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross |publisher=moviemusicuk.us |date=2011-12-27 |access-date=2011-12-29}}
