SKATE Soundtrack

features 45 songs from some of the most influential and celebrated artists including David Bowie, Nirvana, N.W.A. and The Ramones. The game also includes 18 exclusive tracks from XXXChange, Tommy Guerrero, and other DJs. Steve Schnur, Worldwide Executive of Music and Marketing at EA (note to self, next time I try to take on Tony Hawk, hire a famous skater to speak rather than a corporate suit) had the following to say about the music featured in SKATE: The soundtrack for SKATE is a direct reflection of true outlaw skateboard culture (skateboarding is not a crime! - ed.). 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.I leave it to you to decide how really "real" SKATE's soundtrack is:
