Video games seem to becoming a bigger and bigger force in drawing well-respected acts to contribute songs to their soundtrack. The latest is Batman: Arkham City, which features music from Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Duke Spirit, ††† (Crosses) and this new song from Danes The Raveonettes. “Oh, Stranger” follows hot on the heels of The Raveonettes newest album Raven in the Grave, and finds them with a sense of purpose that was sorely lacking on that album. Of the song, Sune Rose Wagner says “We tried to stay away from anything old or too obvious and created a modern action-packed, if you will, adventure.” Take a listen below.
