Six Feet Under [Soundtrack]

six feet under [soundtrack]

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Lest you think HBO's magnificent mortuary "dramedy" has no more cards to play after its Golden Globe coup, the fine folks at Six Feet Under go and unearth one of TV's finest soundtracks. Proving true to the show's characters, the music here represents high camp (Julie London's "Yummy Yummy Yummy," the dearly departed Peggy Lee's "I Love Being Here with You"), sexy chill-out-room music, gritty rock, plus a dose of classic soul and folk. It's easy to see rebellious Claire secluded in her room, jamming to the Dandy Warhols' cagey "Bohemian Like You," while, say, Nate and Brenda devour an expensive bottle of Pinot Grigio while listening to the ethereal buzz band Zero 7 ("Distractions") and muted dance-floor beats from Lamb ("Heaven"). These are songs that mesh with, rather than intrude upon the scenes of L.A.'s other dark side. Hey, we all have to go sometime; it may as well be to the tune of a great song. --Kristy Martin

It seems an easy task to put together a CD for a series about a funeral home...pick some songs about death and make people smirk on topic for a moment before they toss it into the soundtrack graveyard. But this is not a disc to be tossed away. Six Feet Under: Everything Ends is a collection of music that feels exactly like the series: a floaty-bordering-on-surreal batch of greatness. The disc starts off with an underrated track from Nina Simone, the sultry "Feeling Good." Fans of Coldplay and Radiohead will certainly be familiar with their previously-released tunes ("A Rush of Blood to the Head" and "Lucky" respectively) but the best element of this disc is that it gives lesser-known, musically-similar artists a push. After all, finding Death Cab For Cutie's "Transatlanticism" and Sia's fragile "Breathe Me" on pop radio is, well...let's stick to the theme and use the "snowball's chance in hell" analogy. There are a host of great, previously unreleased and exclusive tracks on this CD: Jem's Dido-esque "Amazing Life," the Caesars' "Don't Fear The Reaper" cover, Interpol's discordant and dark "Direction" and Arcade Fire's wonderful "Cold Wind"--a whispered, frail, and beautiful soundscape, perfect to watch hearses off drive into sunsets by. --Denise Sheppard

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Great soundtrack for a great show.......2007-05-11

I became addicted to the show because the ease of watching from NetFlix. The finale on the show was incredible, and the soundtrack matches an amazing series.

5 out of 5 stars Six Feet Under, Vol 2: Everything ends.......2007-04-11

The music was just what I was looking for, I am such a fan of the show & I love the music.

3 out of 5 stars Uneven Compilation.......2007-03-16

The standout tracks on this uneven collection are from the Greats Irma Thomas (the original "Time in on my Side", covered later by the Stones) and Nina Simone ("Feeling Good"), both recorded in the sixties.

Sia's "Breath Me", which provided the soundtrack to the dying minutes of the terminal episode of Six Feet Under, brings back memories of the show and still sounds good without the wonderful elegiac visuals. Everything else on the CD sounds tired. Alan Ball & Co. deserve a lot of credit for including songs on the show from unknown bands, but not many of these choices stand the test of time.

2 out of 5 stars If you like the music from Six Feet Under then you'll like this soundtrack.......2007-03-13

I purchased this soundtrack because my wife wanted the song on the soundtrack by Sia. Overall the soundtrack is ok, however knowing what I know now I could have gone to iTunes to buy the one song she wanted.

5 out of 5 stars Six Feet Under, Vol.2: Everything Ends.......2007-03-12

If you were a Six Feed Under fan, this is must get.

Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars Disappointing.......2006-12-12

I expected more from this album even though I read the track titles before I bought it. Transatlanticism and Breathe are the only real keepers in the mix for me. The Onion in the Petunia Patch is pretty, but really just a novelty. As a huge fan of the show and what I remember to be it's soundtrack, this album was a disappointment.

5 out of 5 stars wonderful.......2006-07-03

if you love the show, you'll love this soundtrack...and if you don't love the show......what's wrong with you?

5 out of 5 stars Album Review.......2006-01-30

To match all its quirkiness, the show "Six Feet Under" found the perfect pairing of music to go hand-in-hand with its woven tapestry of the continuing saga of the family-run funeral home business. Whomever was responsible for selecting the particular bands and musical cuts they used, and the ones that made the album, worked as much magic as those who wrote the witty scripts!

5 out of 5 stars even the girls at work like it.......2005-10-20

I loved the series and this soundtrack, like the other, has so many songs that make you think of the show but also stand alone nicely. The girls at work (who are very picky about music on the overhead) even liked it and that is saying something!

5 out of 5 stars love it.......2005-10-16

a moody mix of tunes from the series i'm still mourning the loss of. if you loved six feet you will, of course, love this cd.
