by Rainier on Aug. 23, 2005 @ 5:06 a.m. PDT

Burnout Revenge lets gamers rip through rush hour traffic and lay waste to scores of rubbernecking roadhogs in an over-the-top scene of vehicular mayhem. In addition to tricked out new race, crash and road rage modes, Burnout Revenge takes the series' blistering speed and spectacular destruction to dizzying new heights with an all-new Revenge mode, challenging gamers to battle the clock and unleash their frustrations on rush hour traffic.

Blowing the doors of the Burnout Revenge soundtrack are songs from a huge variety of artists including big name acts The Chemical Brothers, Fall Out Boy, Thrice, The Bravery and BT's unique remix of 'Break On Through (To The Other Side)' from the legendary band, The Doors.

"EA continues to drive videogames to the forefront of musical discovery by launching new songs through the games. We are really excited that Burnout Revenge will be the first place for music fans worldwide to hear Yellowcard's hot new single," said Steve Schnur, Worldwide Executive of Music and Music Marketing at EA. "The break-neck pace and bone-crushing intensity of this game could only be matched by a high-energy mix of new music. Last year, the soundtrack was characterized by indie, emo and punk -- this year, we are building on that foundation and delivering an even broader mix of mind-blowing music."

The complete song list includes:

The in-game music soundtrack for Burnout Revenge is a part of the EA(TM) TRAX music initiative that EA debuted in 2001. The program is dedicated to bringing gamers the hottest music through EA's videogames.

The sequel to 2004's critically-acclaimed hit Burnout(TM) 3: Takedown(TM), Burnout Revenge straps gamers into the fastest, most dangerous racer on the road. Fight dirty or go down in flames - the only rule is complete automotive anarchy. Built for unprecedented destruction, Burnout Revenge challenges gamers to exact their revenge on rush hour traffic, vindictive rival racers and anything else that gets between them and the finish line. And when gamers are ready to take their rage on the road, a massive suite of online modes and features open up endless possibilities to slam, shunt and stonewall new enemies all over the world. Happy hunting!
