Arrowhead Loop: "Starlight" by "MUSE" off of the Black Holes and Revelations album

There is also a new "song" being used on the knife edge pass, its pretty much all instrumental.

Still sounds like Aerosmith - Living on the Edge, to me for the Knife Edge Pass.

Other new addition 2007 is Newsboys - Something Beautiful, used during the High Alpha. There's also a new song (0:22 into the clip) used for the Line Abreast / Line Break Loop, and it sounds so familiar (I might even have it in my playlist already... but cannot think of the name)!?

Thought I'd let everyone know that they changed a few songs after returning from Europe. The Vertical rolls is now Faint by Linkin Park and there is also a new song for the slow roll but idk what it is.

@roll it 619, care to share which ones?

The music was revised when the team went to Europe earlier this season and they kept some of the new songs.
