Background music has become an important component in many video games nowadays. However, it is usually mega cool hip-hop music that tortures the ears of players. It’s high time to incorporate some punk rock songs as well. This has now happened in the latest installment of the well-known Tony Hawk's series. In Tony Hawk's American Wasteland, the protagonist skates to the sounds of Black Flag, Dead Kennedys, Bad Religion, and many more. The game will be available for all major consoles starting October 18, with the PC version following in December.
Some of the tracks have also been recorded on an audio CD. The pieces were recorded exclusively for the soundtrack and pay homage to the heyday of the American underground in the 80s. The soundtrack will be released three days after the game under the same name as the game.
