In March 2012, American alternative rock band Soundgarden announced through their official Facebook page that they have written a song to be included on the film's soundtrack, entitled "Live to Rise". Additionally, Indian rock band Agnee released a music video for their single "Hello Andhero", which will serve as the theme song for the Indian release of the film. The following day, Marvel released the album's full tracklisting, which was released by Hollywood Records on May 1, 2012. A cover of AC/DC's song "Shoot to Thrill", performed by Theory of a Deadman, was originally to be included on the album, but was removed for unknown reasons. 
Columbia Records produced a soundtrack featuring various artists. The soundtrack was released digitally on , 2014, and it will be released physically on , 2014. John Legend contributed a new song, titled "A Million", to the film's soundtrack. 
The movie's release was accompanied by a double album soundtrack of punk rock and New Wave music. The soundtrack comprises pre-existing songs as well as original songs commissioned for the film, and features a wide range of artists including The Ramones, The Cure, XTC, Lou Reed, Gary Numan, Talking Heads, Garland Jeffreys, Joe Jackson, Suzi Quatro, Roxy Music, Patti Smith and The Pretenders. The Suzi Quatro track, "Rock Hard," is identified in the film as being Nicky and Pamela's favorite record. The disco song "Help Me! ", which plays over the film's closing scene, is a duet between Robin Gibb (of The Bee Gees) and Marcy Levy, and was one of the songs added to the film without the consent of Allan Moyle. The song "Down in the Park" is credited as being performed by Gary Numan although, technically, it was recorded when Numan was using the band name Tubeway Army. The version of "Down in the Park" included on the "Times Square" soundtrack is not the album/single version from "Replicas" (1979), but an earlier version of the song that would later be released on Numan's "Replicas Redux" (2008). The soundtrack also features original songs sung by the film's actors, "Damn Dog" by Johnson, "Your Daughter is One" by Johnson and Alvarado, and "Flowers of the City" by Johnson and David Johansen. The song "Dangerous Type" by The Cars features in the film, but was not included on the soundtrack. As a compilation of some of the most important New Wave and punk music from the era, the "Times Square" soundtrack achieved far more notoriety than the film did on its release. It also became a collectors' item among fans of XTC, because it included the specially-written XTC track "Take This Town", which for many years was only available on this soundtrack. In his audio commentary for the "Times Square" DVD, Allan Moyle mentions that David Bowie was commissioned to provide a song for the movie's soundtrack, but Bowie's label at that time wouldn't let the filmmakers use it. (At the time, Bowie was still under contract with RCA Victor Records, and the "Times Square" album was issued by RSO Records, at the time distributed by RCA Victor competitor PolyGram; however, it's notable that Lou Reed, who does appear on the album, was also under contract to RCA Victor.) Desmond Child has mentioned in a magazine interview that he collaborated with David Bowie on the song "The Night Was Not" (the song did appear on the "Times Square" soundtrack, performed by Child's band, Desmond Child & Rouge). Another rumour is that Bowie intended to provide a re-recorded version of his 1971 song "Life on Mars?" for the "Times Square" soundtrack. Although it has not been confirmed whether or not Bowie re-recorded a studio version of "Life on Mars?" in 1980, it is worth noting that in that same year, Bowie performed a rearranged, punkier version of the song during a live appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson". 
In November 2011, Marvel announced that Alan Silvestri, who scored "Captain America: The First Avenger", would write and compose the score for "The Avengers". Silvestri said, "I've worked on films where there have been a number of stars and certainly worked on films where there have been characters of equal weight in terms of their level of importance and profile in the film, but this one is somewhat extreme in that regard because each of these characters has their own world and it's a very different situation. It's very challenging to look for a way to give everyone the weight and consideration they need, but at the same time the film is really about the coming together of these characters, which implies that there is this entity called the Avengers which really has to be representative of all of them together." Silvestri developed the score with the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios in London, England. Whedon said, "The score is very old-fashioned, which is why was letter-perfect for this movie because he can give you the heightened emotion, the [Hans Zimmer school of 'I'm just feeling a lot right now!' but he can also be extraordinarily cue and character specific, which I love. "In March 2012, American alternative rock band Soundgarden announced through its Facebook page that its song "Live to Rise" would be included on the film's soundtrack. Additionally, the Indian rock band Agnee released a music video for its single "Hello Andheron", which serves as the theme song for the film's Indian release. The following day, Marvel revealed details for the soundtrack, which was released May 1, 2012, the same day as the score.
The Rise of Brutality is the third album by American Metalcore band Hatebreed. It was released on October 28, 2003 by Universal Records. "This is Now" proved to be the album's first single, frequently being played on MTV2's "Headbangers Ball", a program which vocalist Jamey Jasta often hosted. The song was also included on the first "MTV2 Headbangers Ball" compilation album that same year. A second single would be found in "Live for This," with its music video dedicated to a deceased friend of the band. The song "Another Day, Another Vendetta," greatly samples the song "Just Look Around," by Sick of it All, borrowing the first verse. The first song, "Tear It Down" is an extended version of the song "Outro" from the previous album Perseverance. Their song "Live For This" was nominated for a Grammy award in 2005. The bonus track "Bound to Violence" appeared on "The Punisher (2004 film)" soundtrack.
