Tony Hawk's American Wasteland (soundtrack)
The Tony Hawk's American Wasteland soundtrack features a lineup of punk-based bands, each covering a song from a classic punk rock or hardcore punk group. The cover art is an homage of the 1979 album London Calling by The Clash. Similarly, the back cover art is also an homage of the back cover art of self-titled album of The Clash. Since the game is set in Los Angeles, most of the bands covered were West Coast based. The album does not feature the entire soundtrack of the game, composed of 63 songs.
Only two cover version songs from the in-game soundtrack did not make it into the album: "Teenagers from Mars" (by the Misfits, performed by Green Day as their side project The Network) and "Wild in the Streets" (by Garland Jeffreys, performed by the Circle Jerks).
