Onrush Soundtrack Is Solid

[poetic_justice_]

The music of Onrush was easily one of the best parts of the game. After 33 hours driving for the platinum, I searched for the soundtrack. The following fandom site lists the entire soundtrack of the game:

Unfortunately, it only lists the artists and song names with no direct links to actual music. After spending time hunting through various music services, I found my two favorite tracks:

 

Odesza - La ciudad ["Let go, let go" song]

Giraffage - Slowly (feat. Matsoic) ["Oh, it slowly grows this love for you" song]

 

Other Iconic Onrush Songs 

The Heavy - How You Like Me Now [Borderlands 2] 

Pop Levi - Terrifying

FaltyDL - Uncea

Coldcut feat. Roots Manuva - True Skool

Cmd/Ctrl - Riot Lights

Odesza - Show Me ["Che-ching" song]

Ghislain Poirier - Blazin' [The "Baby Shark" song of Onrush ("Wekeepit, wekeepit, wekeepit")]. This song will do if you want to drive your loved ones nuts and turn them into zombies.

 

Although they had numerous songs in the game, I didn't care much for anything from Bite the Buffalo or The Quemists. Songs from The Heavy, Pop Levi, and Cmd/Ctrl have a distinct rock sound that instantly reminds me of Onrush (anything from The Heavy is essentially the soundtrack of Borderlands 2, especially the song "Short Change Hero"). Smashing enemies with the Titan and Enforcer while jamming to these Onrush tunes was fun. As Onrush's servers close, I hope other players continue to enjoy the great music this game contained and perhaps discover some new bands.
