Six Feet Under, Vol. 2: Everything Ends [Soundtrack]

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
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

5 out of 5 stars Six Feet and feeling good.......2007-07-13

This eclectic compilation of haunting melodies not heard in saturated main stream rotation leave me smiling every time I listen to it. Refrains that recall key moments and images from the final season of 6 Feet Under is definitely a bonus, but the songs stand up well on their own. Love it!

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.
