Left 4 Dead's gameplay lends itself to spending more time running and gunning in order to escape hordes of zombies than it does allowing players to sit back and enjoy some of the finer details Valve has put into the game. One feature that might be overlooked more often than not is just how incredibly unique the games score is. Presented below are a few choice highlights from the soundtrack of Left 4 Dead 2 for you audio pleasure, and there's an added bonus. If you already own the game on Steam, or at least the demo, there are ways of obtaining these tracks by simply following these instructions:
 
Go into your computer directory and look up the following: The drive you put it on > program files > Steam > Steamapps > Common > Left 4 Dead 2 (or the Demo, which you can download for free and find the files there, too) > sound. And there you are, access to all the pieces. Now some of them are just small incidental bits... the stray violin pull or the exclamation of being grabbed by a smoker. But with the videos below it should be a little easier to find some of the better, more full tracks you're looking for.  
 
Overall the music is very familiar to anyone who played the first Left 4 Dead. The familiar tunes and themes are back, including The Monsters Within, but all with a decidedly southern coat of paint. The music is packed with more banjos and brass than the previous, making you feel like you're in a grind-house flick... which would be appropriate given the amount of gore that splatters with each kill and the film grain. The game also has a decidedly heavier rock guitar influence compared to it's predecessors reliance on electronic bass and haunting overtures.
