For us (heavy) metal fans, few games have ever truly touched the darker side. Although music games have begun to incorporate and appreciate the long-revered genre of metal and its traditions, the truth is that nothing distinguishes a Guitar Hero or Rock Band game with the metal genre between that of a pop genre (other than, obviously enough, the genre itself).
On October 13 (16th in Europe), Double Fine Productions and EA will unleash Brutal Legend. Tim Schafer, developer and president of Double Fine Productions, and his team have created a game in which the soundtrack will not only satisfy metal fans such as Jack Black, the voice for lead character Eddie Riggs, but “for those who are not, it will either convert them or make their heads explode… or both.” It is true that gaming world is unaccustomed to an abundance of heavy, thrash, black, etc. metal in a soundtrack and I hope this will open some doors in the future.
And so, without further ado, here is the list of announced soundtrack songs!
