We like rock music more than you. It's just the way it is…

Football season is back in full swing which means it’s time for me to buy one of two video games I get every year. Madden ’11 (with Drew Brees on the cover…he better not be cursed now) is out on August 10th and, on top of being a kick-ass game, will also feature a pretty solid rock soundtrack.

This year’s game includes tracks from AC/DC, Guns N’ Roses, Ozzy Osbourne, The Hives, Blur, Kiss and even Todd Rundgren. Plus there are also cover version’s of songs done by Queen, Gary Glitter and Joe Satriani.

Previous games have been a springboard for bands to gain some notoriety. Jet, Franz Ferdinand, Wolfmother, Avenged Sevenfold, Sevendust and more are just a few of the bands to have been blasted over the stadium speakers when I would throw a 65-yard bomb to my wide out for a game-winning TD. You can check out the full tracklisting down below. There are also some team fight songs in this years game which includes the song for my beloved Chicago Bears. Our year, baby!
