If you've begun to doubt the link between Blood Dragon and any of the bands I'm recommending, let Perturbator silence you. In fact, following Jason Eisener, director of 'Hobo with a Shotgun' (and a personal friend of Blood Dragon creative director Dean Evans), on twitter is where I've picked up on a lot of these musicians. Fans of 'Hobo with a Shotgun' may recognize the track from a video in the film's special features. Both are solid, but I'm a bigger fan of Viper. The intro track 'Pacer' is evocative of Carpenter Brut. Judge b*tch (a band our profanity filter disapproves of) has a couple of albums available, Priors and Viper. The entire woefully brief EP is available on the cheap. 'Le Perv' kicks off with a driving beat and haunting drone, then implements creepy strings and frantic melodies. Next up is Carpenter Brut, which focuses on a John Carpenter-inspired, 80s horror synth vibe.

I especially enjoy 'Maximum Potential,' which has a retro workout video feel complete with motivating Dolph Lundgren voice samples. Power Glove also has a handful of other tracks available on iTunes which are equally fun. Or better yet, if you haven't played the game check it out and fall in love that way. Otherwise, read/listen on!įirst off there's the Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon OST itself. It's missing some great stuff, but it's better than nothing. Here's a quick link to an abridged Spotify playlist if you're short on time. If you liked Blood Dragon's soundtrack and want more, I've got you covered.

I've been listening to Power Glove for weeks now and developed an infatuation for heavily synthesized electronic music that apes classic '80s horror and action films. One of the most important elements of selling that '80s feel comes from the talented Australian synth group Power Glove (not to be confused with the video game metal band, Powerglove). The game oozes an '80s action movie aesthetic, complete with neon lights, ridiculous one-liners, and campy robot adversaries. Expect your pulse to skyrocket while simultaneously feeling really cool.įar Cry 3: Blood Dragon is out and it's pretty great.

Update: The It Follows horror film soundtrack by Disasterpeace, the composer for Fez, is out now and fits in perfectly with the other recommendations here.
