Square Enix has announced that the original musical score for the upcoming Life is Strange: Before the Storm will include music from Daughter, an indie-folk band from the UK. Entitled “Music From Before The Storm,” the score will be released through Glassnote Records/4AD on September 1st, 2017.
All tracks from Music From Before The Storm will be included in the Life is Strange: Before the Storm, plus two other Daughter tracks thrown into the mix. Elena Tonra, the lead singer of Daughter, spoke about the band’s experience on working on an original score: “It was our first experience working on an original soundtrack, and are so honoured to have been given the opportunity to work with the team. We loved the story on first read as it centres around realistic female lead characters who are emotional, intelligent, sensitive and badass in equal measure. I think the characters themselves have really inspired the soundscapes we have created. It was a pleasure to be involved.”
Life is Strange: Before The Storm was revealed during the Xbox E3 briefing earlier this year. The game will run for three episodes, the first of which will be available on August 31st, 2017 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.
