One of the most striking elements of the Gears of War 3 trailer wasnât the tentacle monster, the female soldier or even the facial hair. Instead, it was the haunting music. What was the name of that song?

The tune is âHeron Blueâ by folk rock group Sun Kil Moon, the current act from Red House Painters frontman Mark Kozelek. Named after a Korean boxer, Sun Kil Moon has lent its music to feature films like Steve Martinâs Shopgirl and Friday Night Lights, the big screen version of the book by the same name.
Sun Kil Moonâs albums include Ghosts of the Great Highway, Tiny Cities and April â not to mention various EPs.
Not only does this trailer bring closure to a trilogy of Gears of War games, but a trilogy of Gears trailers with incongruous music: The first gameâs trailer sports a cover of âMad Worldâ by Tears for Gears Fears and the second one featured âHow It Endsâ by DeVotchKa.

According to Microsoft, the new Gears of War 3 âAshes to Ashesâ trailer was created in the Unreal Engine 3 by the same team that created the âMad Worldâ, âRendezvousâ and âLast Dayâ video spots.
