Like a shambling zombie that’s missing a leg, here comes a late Halloween-appropriate new release announcement. It’s Jason Graves [1]’ original soundtrack to the PlayStation 4 teen slasher simulator, Until Dawn [2]. The album was released on October 26th and, so far, is only available on iTunes [3] for $9.99.
While it was originally designed as an interactive soundtrack, looping and building depending on the player’s actions, the album version features 13 lengthy arranged tracks. The final track is Jeff Grace’s rendition of ‘O Death’ which serves as the game’s intro and ending themes.
Coming from the composer behind the Dead Space series, 2013’s Tomb Raider, and loads of other horror and sci-fi games, you can expect plenty of tense, taut drama and creeping dread from Until Dawn’s soundtrack. Take a listen to three tracks from the game above before to get a feel for what the full album holds.
