While I still think inFAMOUS 2 has the best soundtrack in the series, I also strongly admire this soundtrack.

It's really fitting and unique, as it symbolizes the setting and the cultural background of our protagonist. The grunge rock influences (inspired by the Seattle setting) blend well with the indigenous cries (calling back to Delsin's Native American heritage). 'Speed of Light' and 'Double Crossed' showcase this really well. There's also some nice post-rock and industrial production in songs like 'Second Son' and 'Freedom and Security'.

For a cinematic video game soundtrack, there's an impressive amount of songs that are easy to groove to in a casual setting. 'Alibi', 'Speed of Light', 'Conflict Resolution', and 'Smoke and Mirrors' are really enjoyable as regular rock songs.

While Second Son, as a game, might have its issues. The soundtrack is NOT one of them.
