British Indie Folk Band Daughter Teams up with Life Is Strange for a Killer Soundtrack
Square Enix is proud to announce that the soundtrack for Life Is Strange: Before the Storm will feature the works of the British indie folk band Daughter. The original music score for the episodic video game franchise is on the brink of creation, and Daughter has played an integral part in sculpting the overall composition and tone of the upcoming title. Entitled “Music From Before The Storm,” the soundtrack will be released via Glassnote Records/4AD on September 1, 2017. The game itself will feature all of the included tracks, alongside licensed tracks and two classic tracks from Daughter.
