Black Ops 2 soundtrack bolstered by Trent Reznor, Mass Effect composer Jack Wall

4.6

Call of Duty's next big entry is getting some extra long nails to assist in its theme song – Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor composed Black Ops 2's theme song, USA Today revealed this morning. He's not crafting the whole soundtrack, though, as Mass Effect 1 and 2 soundtrack composer Jack Wall is taking that responsibility.

Reznor said he was led to the project after having composed soundtracks for both The Social Network and The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. "I started dipping my toe into film scoring. That led me to film scoring agents and whatnot and a variety of projects start to get thrown at you to check your level of interest. And quite a while ago I had heard, 'Would you be interested in a big franchise video game?' Being an avid gamer my whole life, I said, 'Yeah, I would be interested in that.'" Reznor previously composed the soundtrack to Quake.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 launches on November 13 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.

Any Nice! Is he going to do the soundtrack for Zombies as well..?

It wouldn't be the same without Elena and Kevin making their bonus songs, but who knows what could happen.

You should check some of his songs out on youtube they are decent

I think im going to do that since i've never heard of him and want to see what he's got

Yeah i'm going to do that aswell.

tbh He is probably better than Elena. His songs are pretty sick
