Tron: Ares Soundtrack: Every Song Revealed

Tron: Ares finally hit theaters on October 10, 2025, and while the movie itself has been getting a mixed response (the plot is... not its strong suit), the soundtrack is what everyone keeps talking about. If you walked out humming something you couldn't quite place and now you're fighting your search history to find it, here you go.

Quick refresher on what this one is: it's the third Tron movie and a direct follow-up to 2010's Tron: Legacy. The story centers on an AI program named Ares. Greta Lee shows up as ENCOM CEO Eve Kim, and Evan Peters plays Julian Dillinger, grandson of the original film's Ed Dillinger. Again, critics aren't swooning over the script, but the music? That's where the movie flexes.

Every track in the Tron: Ares soundtrack

• "I Know You Can Feel It" - Nine Inch Nails
• "As Alive As You Need Me To Be" - Nine Inch Nails
• "Who Wants To Live Forever?" - Nine Inch Nails
• "Paranoid" - Black Sabbath
• "We'll Never Know" - Stick To Your Guns
• "If Our Love Is Dead" - Royel Otis
• "Just Can't Get Enough" - Depeche Mode
• "Summer Breeze" - Seals & Crofts
• "Theme From Tron And Tron Scherzo" - Wendy Carlos and the London Philharmonic Orchestra

From Nine Inch Nails anchoring multiple tracks to classic cuts from Black Sabbath and Depeche Mode, it swings hard across genres: dark, brooding electronics; heavy metal; classic rock; even melodic hardcore and some mellow, nostalgic vibes. You get the moody, cinematic stuff, the upbeat earworms, and the slick, futuristic textures you'd expect from Tron. There's also a clear nod to the franchise's roots with Wendy Carlos and the London Philharmonic Orchestra in the mix.

Bottom line: even if the story left you cold, the soundtrack is built to hit nerves across the board, and it does. Thoughtfully curated, emotionally sharp, and honestly the reason people are buzzing about Ares right now.
