![]() ![]() – J– Electronic Arts Inc (NASDAQ: ERTS) today unveiled the music track listing for Madden NFL 09, set to release August 12, 2008. One of the Most Influential Soundtracks in Videogame History Returns with Major Events, Tracks from Busta Rhymes featuring Linkin Park, Disturbed and The Offspring Give me the original title menu music from NHL 95 any day.ĮA Celebrates 20 Years of Madden Music with Announcement of the MADDEN NFL 09 Soundtrack That’s not a commentary on the quality of the music, but I find that I inevitably become tired of any game’s soundtrack if it features licensed music in this manner. I wonder how long it’ll take me to get sick of these songs. ![]() Hit the jump for the press release, which contains the full tracklist. Some of the artists on tap this year are Franz Ferdinand, The Offspring, Rev Theory, and Busta Rhymes (featuring Linkin Park, no less). Still, I definitely remember Madden NFL 2004 shipping with Blink-182’s single “Feeling This,” as well as Madden NFL 2005 featuring Green Day’s new single at the time, “American Idiot” - so perhaps I should note for the second time on Destructoid that I must be hopelessly out of touch with modern music. Of course, I suppose that’s the point EA has always strived to introduce up-and-coming artists and songs with their games’ soundtracks, called “EA Trax.” You’re going to have to let me know about the validity of that statement from EA’s PR people, since I’m not familiar with a single track in the game. ![]() Accordingly, EA announced the game’s 26-song soundtrack this morning it is said to feature “a multi-genre roster of superstar acts and soon-to-breakthrough artists.” We’re already into July, so EA Sports’ August 12th launch of Madden NFL 09 on every current platform known to man (and some unknown to this man) is right around the corner. ![]()
