As it stands, Deep Silver's and Techland's Nail'd is already pretty metal. I mean, it's a game called nail'd that drops the "e" because dropping letters is metal. It's also a name that evokes sexual intercourse, as well as violence, both things which are very metal.

So it comes as no surprised to learn that the entire soundtrack is made up of heavy metal music, with a number of artists creating original tracks specifically for the game. On board: Raymond Herrera and Christian Olde Wolbers of Fear Factory and Arkaea; Pat Lachman of Damageplan; Wayne Static  from Static X; Jamey Jasta of Hatebreed; Stephen Carpenter of Deftones; Jed Simon from Strapping Young Lad; and John Boecklin of DevilDriver.

The bunch have gotten into the studio to create a number of instrumental tracks for the game, as well as three lyrical tracks: "Count for Something" and "Through Walls of Flame" sung by Jasta, and "Decimator" growled by Wayne Static.

The soundtrack will be fleshed out by licensed tracks from Slipknot, Queens of the Stone Age, Backyard Babies, Rise Against, American Sixgun, Aggressive Chill, and Slaves of Dope. Turn it up, piss off your neighbors. Nail'd is out later this year for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.
