Unoriginal Soundtracks Podcast: Max Payne 3 Edition

Every other Wednesday, I share a playlist of songs tangentially related to a single game or series. Songs about alien sex for Mass Effect, world leaders for Civilization, and so on. Searching for relevant terms on Spotify is a great way to discover new music and uncover hidden gems. Make requests to @USPodcast on Twitter.

As mentioned in the episode that dealt with Max Payne as an entire series, Max Payne 3 takes place in Brazil. Along with the change of scenery, the ex-cop's life has slipped deeper into drug addiction, self pity, and suicidal thoughts. The melodramatic themes inspire an Americana-focussed podcast of hardcore, southern rock, soul, and folk.
