We’ve always titled the soundtracks by “volumes” as opposed to “seasons” so we wouldn’t be tied down to a particular season for the song choices.
As I was putting the track list together I wanted to pick the songs that represented the different styles and had strong impact in the show, as well as songs that I felt could work well together as an album. GARY CALAMAR: This season we decided to release the soundtrack to coincide with the season finale as opposed to volumes 1 and 2 which were released prior to the new season. Why isn’t there a season Season 3 only soundtrack? What was part of the decision to make this change? But the Volume 3 CD has only four songs are from Season 3 and the rest, excluding Bad Things, of course, are from Season 4. LYNNPD: In the past, the soundtrack has represented songs mostly from one season. Of course as we run into different creatures and situations the music selections expand but it’s all part of the Bon Temps music palette. The patrons of Merlottes and Fangtasia are still hearing True Blood’s brand of bad ass country and goth, death metal. GARY CALAMAR: I think the basic sound of the show has been consistent throughout the 4 seasons. LYNNPD: Do you agree that there has been an evolution in the sound or style of music used on True Blood from season 1 to Season 4? If so, can you talk about it? I asked Gary if he would answer a few questions for us about Volume 3 and about the process of choosing the music for the show and he kindly agreed. I have the past two CD’s from the show and just love the choices made by Gary Calamar, True Blood’s Music Supervisor. We’re all excited for the new CD of the True Blood Soundtrack Volume 3 to come out next Tuesday, September 6.
