EA Reveals Soundtrack For SKATE News

One in a number of new franchises currently being developed by Electronic Arts, EA Black Box's SKATE is due for release on Xbox 360 and PlayStation3 in the autumn, but the publisher has today unveiled the tunes we'll all be listening to when it does arrive.

Over forty-five tracks will make their way onto title, including an eclectic mix of David Bowie, Nirvana, Agent Orange, and The White Stripes, with EA's Worldwide Executive of Music and Marketing, Steve Schnur commenting:

"The soundtrack for SKATE is a direct reflection of true outlaw skateboard culture...It's a throwback to the days of underground skateboard videos when skaters created their own soundtracks that raided every genre of music. In that spirit, we talked to hardcore skaters around the country to help pick many of the songs for SKATE. Real recognizes real, and this soundtrack is a straight-up tribute to a culture like no other."
