Helsinki, Finland - 14 December 2006 - Finnish game developer Frozenbyte is extremely happy to announce the availability of the official Shadowgrounds Soundtrack. The soundtrack is distributed in North America by Sumthing Else Music Distribution and it is available at select retailers and online stores nationwide. Customers outside North America can order the soundtrack from the official Shadowgrounds website.

"The Shadowgrounds Soundtrack deserves to be distributed in physical form," says Lauri Hyvarinen, Frozenbyte CEO. "The music is a big part of the unique atmosphere of Shadowgrounds and each track fits the mood of the game perfectly, even if the tracks range from melodic ambient to full-blown heavy rock."

"I'm excited to release my first commercial soundtrack," says Ari Pulkkinen, Music & Audio Producer at Frozenbyte. "Game music deserves more recognition and I want to do my share by creating excellent music that is fit even for retail distribution. I look forward to bringing gamers more great soundtracks in the future - stay tuned!"

The Shadowgrounds Soundtrack includes all the highly-acclaimed music from the PC game Shadowgrounds and features heavy guitar riffs performed by special guest star Amen, guitarist from the Finnish monster hard rock band Lordi.

The Shadowgrounds website currently offers the Shadowgrounds Soundtrack at 12,99 euros, and as a special Christmas present for the month of December, all soundtracks come with a signature from composer Ari Pulkkinen.
