HEALTH

"Tears"

Today (March 15) marks the release of Max Payne 3, which means gamers will be getting an earful of HEALTH's accompanying soundtrack to the videogame. In case you don't have a console of your own, you can get a sneak peek of the L.A. troupe's eerie soundscapes online via a stream of new song "Tears."

The song plays straightforward and sinister, with a deep, clanking industrial beat, overly processed guitar sonics and breathy vocals. It's unsettling, and probably the kind of tension-filled piece you'll want to hear while navigating the dark, kidnapping-themed videogame. HEALTH's soundtrack, meanwhile, drops in full May 23.
