The original track “War Zone”, written for
and inspired by the film, contains the kind of raw, throttling energy
that has made Rob Zombie a platinum selling artist. The song will also
serve as the first single from the soundtrack. About his contribution,
Rob Zombie said: "I love writing music for films, rather than just
throwing them an unwanted B side or remix. This track was written exclusively
for Punisher War Zone. A punishing track for a punishing movie."
The record also features Slayer’s 2008 Grammy winning “Final
Six” and current chart-topping singles from Slipknot “Psychosocial” and
Seether “Fallen”. The beatdown doesn’t stop there,
with a broad mix of new and unreleased music that spans every niche of
the rock genre, including unreleased songs by premiere punk group Rise
Against and emo scenesters Senses
Fail. Dan Trapp of Senses Fail had
this to say: "We are super excited to be a part of the Punisher
legacy… when we heard we were going to be involved, we all threw
up in our hands out of excitement.”
Providing extra ammunition to round out the album are emerging artists
Kerli, and highly praised electronica duo Justice. This all adds up to
make the PUNISHER: WAR ZONE soundtrack one of the most anticipated of
the season. |
