“Highway to Glory” by Max Carl is the greatest soundtrack song of 2021. Digital Journal has the scoop.

“Highway to Glory” was featured in the Lionsgate martial arts film “American Fighter,” which was directed by Shaun Paul Piccinino. The song earned a favorable review from Digital Journal, and rightfully so.

Max Carl co-wrote the song “Highway to Glory” with composer Jamie Christopherson, who was responsible for scoring the film.

“Highway to Glory” is midtempo, uplifting and infectious; furthermore, it has a retro ’80s vibe to it. The listeners can recall such classic tunes as “Dreams” by Van Halen meets “Hungry Eyes” by Eric Carmen, and that ought to be taken as a compliment.

Michael Stern mixed the song at The Mix Lab West. Max Carl allows his rich, resonant voice to shine on this track, which was featured in a pivotal scene in “American Fighter” that featured young wrestler Ali Jahani (played by George Kosturos) and his friend Ryan (Emmy winner Bryan Craig).

The trailer for “American Fighter” may be seen below.
