Aspyr Media Inc. offered details Thursday about the soundtrack for its upcoming game ” Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse.” The soundtrack features classic pop hits remade by bands including The Dandy Warhols, The Flaming Lips, Cake, Death Cab for Cutie and others.

Coming in September, 2005, the game puts you in the role of the title character, billed as “a wisecracking zombie” who takes on a retro-futuristic city of the future, circa 1959. Stubbs the Zombie: The Soundtrack features classic pop songs whose covers have been commissioned specifically for the soundtrack. The track listing includes:

Ben Kweller – Lollipop

The Raveonettes – My Boyfriend’s Back

Death Cab for Cutie – Earth Angel

Rogue Wave – Everyday

Cake – Strangers in the Night

The Walkmen – There Goes My Baby

The Dandy Warhols – All I Have to Do Is Dream

Oranger – Mr. Sandman

The Flaming Lips – If I Only Had a Brain

Clem Snide – Tears on My Pillow

Rose Hill Drive – Shakin’ All Over

Look for the soundtrack to be released in March, 2005 — a few months ahead of the game’s actual release.
