Who's getting pumped for The Retaliators movie? Better Noise Music/Films are going to be lighting up cinemas with worldwide release of the horror/thriller flick which will include many musicians in the alternative music world that you'll be quite familiar with. The movie is out Sept 14th and the soundtrack is gaining a bit of momentum.

Today, theme song '21 Bullets' has been released, featuring Mötley Crüe, Asking Alexandria, Ice Nine Kills and From Ashes to New. The four minute single was written by Nikki Sixx and record producer James Michael. Danny Worsnop take the lead on vocals with a steady intro that's about to explode. Spencer Charnas then jumps in briefly before they all combine gang-vocals for an idealistic superhero chorus that fits perfectly. Add Matt Brandyberry's rap-rock style in and you've got yourself a party. The track hits just right and builds all the right momentum for the flick.

On '21 Bullets', Sixx comments:

“Writing a new theme song for a horror flick was inspiring. This was my first time writing for a horror-thriller film, and it took me in a different direction from the first theme song I wrote – ‘The Dirt (1981)’ by Mötley Crüe. I worked with some great new artists to create a new sound that will stretch Mötley Crüe’s audience to new fans.  I had a great time writing it, and I think our fans will love it too!
