Paul Leonard-Morgan provided the industrial film score. Leonard-Morgan attempted to create a sound that would fit in the far future setting. He initially experimented with band-based music, but found it sounded over-produced and too safe a choice. He turned to electronic music, using his compositions from the 1980s and his modern sound modules to create various combinations and then applying distortion and other effects to the result. Leonard-Morgan said: "I was looking to create a timeless score which couldn't be placed in any particular era. So it's ended up being a cross between a modern dance track and evocative soundscapes." For scenes conveying the effect of the Slo-Mo narcotic, he composed new music with real instruments and then slowed the songs down by thousands of percent to match the visuals, such that 1 second of his composed score could last 10 minutes. He then added additional real-time score to the slowed track.
The film also features songs by other artists, including: "Poison Lips" by Vitalic; "Dubstride" by Yann McCullough and Gemma Kicks; "Snuffbox" by Matt Berry; "Pontiac Moon" by Robert J. Walsh; and "Jubilee (Don't Let Nobody Turn You Around)" by Bobby Womack.

Dredd was released on 7 September 2012 in the United Kingdom, and on 21 September 2012 worldwide. Critics were generally positive about the film's visual effects and casting and action, while criticism focused on a perceived lack of satirical elements found in the source comic and excessive violence. As of 15 October 2012, the film has earned so far over $32 million.
