The Borderlands soundtrack is a thing that is happening this December.
In a press release sent last afternoon, Sumthing Else Music Works announced plans to sell the Borderlands original soundtrack via retail and digital download starting this December 8th. The release will feature most, if not all, the original tracks in the game from artists Jesper Kyd, Sascha Dikiciyan, Cris Velasco, Raison Varner, and Tim Larkin.
A clear and obvious bummer, the original soundtrack will not include the game’s broody opening theme song, “Ain’t No Rest for the Wicked,” by Cage the Elephant.
Perhaps to make up for the lack of Cage the Elephant, or perhaps just to aid marketing the soundtrack, this release will have a total of six bonus tracks created by all the artists listed on the soundtrack.
The full track listing is available below the fold.

1. Prelude (Jesper Kyd)

I do love Jesper Kyd, though. He's definitely one of the industry's secret weapons of awesome.
"No Heaven" is in the game, its the credits song.
i actually enjoyed it more by turning off the music or
plugging in my ipod and playing my own
highly suggest the Crank 2: High Voltage soundtrack
Hmm. Must have missed that. Borderlands gains additional prestige EXP!
What is it with soundtracks not including the main themes lately, BlazBlue did it too.
The only question I have is: Does it include the song playing at Lucky's?
