Listen: DEAD ISLAND Soundtrack

Three new tracks from composer Pawel Blaszczak released to the net...

Noone is likely to deny that Dead Island's teaser trailer will go down in history as one of the greatest trailers ever made across all media, but it wouldn't have been half as noteworthy had it not been for the beautifully emotive music track that played over the action. While accusations have appeared all over the place that that trailer was a major dupe, considering how different the tone of the game itself is, I am unconcerned that the 9th September release will do anything to dissuade my own early commitment to the game. And one aspect that I was definitely looking forward to hearing more of is that soundtrack, put together by composer Pawel Blaszczak. Today, thanks to Joystiq, we have three tracks from the official soundtrack - Main Theme, Zombie Rising, and Surrounded By Zombies - and they're just as outstanding as the trailer music: http://youtu.be/U4jeZMPW59Y http://youtu.be/XcZ0i-wTJyQ http://youtu.be/dmipn0jy_Rg Crikey that's some atmospheric work there Pawel.
