So have you seen the Let for Dead 2 video game commercial? I'm sure most have by now. It's all over television.
The commercial itself is pretty common considering the genre. Blast the zombies and stay alive. Nothing all that new for an FPS (first person shooter), though it has gotten high marks from the reviews I've seen.
Honestly I wouldn't even think about the game as I generally don't bother with FPS video games (Resident Evil excepted). But it's the commercial. The damn thing just sticks in my mind. Actually the background song of the television commercial - Bang Bang Bang Bang, Vamanos! Vamanos!
It just lingers. I have to say that it is the best part of the whole game commercial. It almost makes me want to go out and buy the game. Almost, but it is highly likely that the musioc won't be in the game itself.
So if you are like me, here is who made the song. The band is called Clutch, and they've been around since 1990. They play funk and heavy metal. Also they do hardcore punk and blues rock. The last is very much what is in this song.
The song is called Electric Worry. It sounds like it has it's inspiration in Muddy Waters. If you don't know Waters, definitely check him out. Here is the video (which really needs work).
And if you wanted to see a bit more of Left for Dead and the sequel, to this same song, I also found a nice fanvideo.
Warning - This is a bit graphic in violence and gore.
