Sound Track-Down

A few days ago, i was talking with some of my friends about the music we listened to when we were younger. After a few minutes of talking we quickly came to the realization that shaped our musical taste's of today, came from video games. While at the time we had no idea, games like Tony hawk and Burnout actually played a part in our life while having nothing to do with the game itself. Quickly springing to my computer i began to look through my i-tunes library, and could almost relate 200 songs worth of my favorite music straight to video games i had played before ever hearing of these artists. Just a sample of these songs includes









Alkaline Trio (THPS)
Rise Against ( THPS)
NOFX (THPS)
The Transplants (THPS)
Bad Religion (THPS)
Jimmy Eat World (Burnout)
The Von Bondies (Burnout)
Silent Drive (Burnout)
Bouncing Souls (Burnout)
Atreyu (Burnout)
Fuenral For a friend (Burnout).
These are just a small sample of the artists i have subconsciously discovered due to video games.

The soundtrack is so important, adn we won't get a chance to talk much about it in class. Effects too.
Good entry.
