Looking for some New Sounds

Have you ever heard of the game The Run: Need for Speed?? -- well shame on you if you don't because if you're tired of the old Need for Speed game play, this game would definitely suit you.

According to Wickipedia.com, Need for Speed: The Run is a racing video game, the 18th title in the long-running Need for Speed franchise, and developed by EA Black Box and published by Electronic Arts. The Wii and 3DS versions were developed by Firebrand Games, the team behind Undercover and Nitro (both DS versions). It was released in North America on November 15, 2011 and November 18, 2011 in Europe.The game is described as an "illicit, high-stakes race across the country. The only way to get your life back is to be the first from San Francisco to New York. No speed limits. No rules. No allies. All you have are your driving skills and sheer determination".

While my brother was playing it one time, and off course I was just seating beside him, you could also capture that adrenaline thingy if that's what you prefer to call it. And now I wonder what would happen if I was the one who is playing that wonderful game God knows where it came from. Besides from the new game play and awesome awesome graphics, this game also has a wonderful soundtrack which we will talk about for today. 

Now if you ask me, what is a soundtrack? According to merriam-webster.com it is a track (as on a motion-picture film or television videotape) that carries the sound record, nuff said right? 

The listed songs below can be heard all throughout the game: 

  1. BRMC  -  Beat the Devil’s Tattoo
  2. Canned Heat  - On the Road Again
  3. Dan Auerbach - Heartbroken, In Disrepair
  4. Rival Sons  - Save Me
  5. The Black Angels – Better off Alone
  6. Unkle Feat. Nick Cave -  Take the Money and Run
  7. Ritmo Machine – La Calle
  8. MonstrO - Solar
  9. Donovan- Riki Tiki Tavi
  10. Endless Boogie - Empty Eye
  11. Gary Clark Jr. – Don’t Owe You A Thang
  12. Girls Against Boys – Bulletproof Cupid
  13. Black Keys - Lonely Boy
  14. Black Pistol Fire – Trigger On My Fire
  15. Brian Jonestown Massacre - The Way it Was
  16. Handsome Furs - Damage
  17. London Souls – the Sound
  18. Lykke Li - Get Some
  19. Mastodon - Curl Of The Burl
  20. Middle Class Rut - Alive or Dead
  21. Ministry - NWO
  22. Red Fang – Prehistoric Dog
  23. Reverend horton Heat – Big Red Rocket of Love
  24. Black Lips - The Lie
  25. Dead Weather - Treat me Like Your Mother

Now why did I say that this songs are different from all the other songs I have heard before, well the only simple reason I can say is that this 25 songs contains some country like feeling but at the same time you can also hear some modern mix in it. 

I know we have different interpretation or tastes when it comes to music, I know that some of you guys doesn't like this type of music genre, but the only thing I can say is that this songs are worth listening to. Especially when you don't know what kind of mood you have like me. 

I adore the song Lonely Boy by Black keys which can also be found on the soundtrack of The Run: Need for Speed.  



Happy Listening guys! :) 

Cheers!
