Brütal Legend Soundtrack Will Rock Your Face Off
You know how over-the-top Brütal Legend looks already? Well, it turns out that Tim Schafer's latest game isn't doing anything halfway. No, EA and Double Fine Productions announced today the listing for the complete soundtrack to the game, and it's pretty much as insane as you might expect. There are a total of 75 bands featured, including Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Megadeth and Motörhead.
"This soundtrack took years to put together as we wanted to represent every genre of Metal, and also have the perfect music for every epic moment in the game," said Tim Schafer, President of Double Fine Productions. "It's designed to be loved by Metal fans, and for those who are not, it will either convert them or make their heads explode... or both."
"It would be a grave disservice to merely use the term 'Ultimate Heavy Metal Soundtrack' here," said Steve Schnur, Worldwide Executive of Music and Music Marketing for Electronics Arts. "Instead, what we've unleashed is without question the most mind-blasting, face-melting, skull-shattering alliance of Classic Metal, Thrash Metal, New Wave, British Metal, Black Metal, Power Metal, Doom Metal, Death Metal, Hair Metal, Goth Metal and Industrial Metal ever decreed by The Gods Of Metal. Its very existence will condemn your soul to eternal brütal damnation. Yes, it's that good!"
Brütal Legend is due out on October 13 in the US and the 16th in the UK, and I've got the whole list of the more than 100 tracks after the jump if you're curious. No, seriously — over 100. How could they afford the licensing fees?!

Mind blown. That set list is amazing.
