Max Payne 3 Awesome Soundtrack !

Hot damn, am I enjoying Max Payne 3. Though… well, "enjoying" might be the wrong word for it, you know? It has me in a vice-grip, and every time I play I find myself locked in a tense, curse-shouting battle with the deadly enemies inside of my Xbox 360.

The game is relentless, always pushing forward, throwing me into deadly, sharp situation after deadly, sharp situation. And underscoring every blood-drenched shootout and explosive setpiece is HEALTH's undulating, astonishing soundtrack.
It's an uncomfortable experience, this game, from the blurred alcohol haze that covers everything to the way my enemies keep shouting in Portuguese to the sheer disorienting lethality of it all. Even on "normal" difficulty, every nook and cranny holds another ignoble death. In every gunfight, I almost forget to breathe. Here I am, I've got a hair of health left, and yet I know there are more enemies ahead. Around this corner lies the unknown, and almost certainly death… time to reload my weapons and plunge in.

A Los Angeles-based four-piece, provided all of the music that pulses beneath each of Max Payne 3's many action scenes. Their music is never overly cinematic or dramatic; rather, it's dark and driving, with few peaks or valleys to break up the dirge. It's the music of drug-addled hangovers, of splitting headaches and metallic stink. It is, in many ways, the music of death.by kirk hamilton
