"This project is a testament to the power of collaboration, and we can't wait for fans to experience how these songs complement the world of American Psycho in a bold and electrifying way. It's more than just a soundtrack—it's a journey into the dark and thrilling atmosphere that this series embodies."
The American Psycho Comic Series Soundtrack runs as follows:

On the Pat Benatar cover, Diamante added: "Since I can remember, I have always been a huge fan of songs from the 80s, especially of the female powerhouse vocalists of that time. In particular, Pat Benatar has always been a hero of mine, and I love nothing more than a good challenge. So for me, recording this version of 'Love Is a Battlefield' was a lifelong dream come true."
The American Psycho comic series is a reimagining of the 1991 novel American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis (or 2000 movie if you never read the book), and follows two characters – the murderous Patrick Bateman and Charlene Carruthers, a social media-savvy millennial whose descent into violence mirrors the chilling escalation of her predecessor.
The American Psycho comic series was written by Michael Calero (Quested), features artwork by Piotr Kowalski (The Witcher, Bloodborne, Sex), and was colored by Brad Simpson (Kong of Skull Island, Stray Dogs, Blade Runner Origins).
