Silent Hill, a series with a massive fan following, has always been noted for it’s excellent use of audio, from the creepy sound effects, to the vocal themes tied to the game. With the re-imagining of first title, titled Silent Hill: Shattered Memories being right around the corner, there’s alot to be excited about for the common Silent Hill fan. Especially with the confirmation that Akira Yamaoka is back to compose the game as noted in the interview we had with SHSM producer Tomm Huelett at E3 2009.
So how can you sweeten the deal further? Well, turns out if you pre-order the game today, you will receive the Silent Hill: Shattered Memories Soundtrack! The CD is expected to contain new composed music along with some arrangements of older material. Make sure to put a pre-order in now as the game is set to launch November 3, 2009.
What’s your thoughts on the direction they are going for with the game, and do you think Yamaoka’s work will be as good as the earlier titles? Let us know!

At least they remembered to announce it this year. Seemed like they forgot with Homecoming. Should be a great soundtrack from what I heard at E3.

I was wondering if some of the older Silent Hill tunes would show up on this cd. Gamestop’s description made it sound like this was the case but it’s nice to hear it from another source. So far I’m really excited for the game! If the past soundtracks (SHH and SH0) are anything to go on Yamaoka’s music will get better and better so I have high hopes for the new songs as well!
