The walking dead theme song piano tv#
“Farm Invasion” actually reminded me very strongly of his theme for Constantine (the short-lived TV show) and that’s because it’s a perfect blend of classical and rock elements. It’s simple, but beautiful in its simplicity. Now in the last 30 seconds some relatively ominous strings come in, but the piano simply repeats its theme. It reminds me very much of this scene where Carl “rescues” a can of chocolate pudding from a ruined house and eats it while sitting on the roof contemplating his surroundings. “Carl” is very different from some of the others because, until the last 30 seconds, it is entirely piano. The detail I like the best is, in the middle of the theme, there is a hint of what sounds like a music box, something that is often associated with young girls. It is unexpectedly rich, warm at times, but there is always a hint of sadness, almost like McCreary was foreshadowing her fate (and he likely was).
This young girl who had to live through the worst kind of apocalypse and (spoiler alert) ultimately didn’t make it deserves a theme that highlights her nature and this theme delivers.

The quickly moving strings that turn dark as the credits show how civilization has completely broken down (time winding to a stop, buildings decomposing, etc.), it just sucks you in to this (thankfully) fictional world where the dead walk and life as we know it will never be “normal” again (I haven’t watched in years but I AM curious as to what the endgame of this series will be, because nothing lasts forever).Īnd then there’s “Sophia.” Oh Sophia Sophia…the fate of that little girl came in one of the last episodes I remember watching and this theme fits her so perfectly. The “Main Theme” is probably one of the most iconic pieces from the series. This is just a sampling of what’s available, as there are 23 tracks in total. Composer Bear McCreary chose his personal favorites from the innumerable themes he has written for the series, along with tracks the fans begged to have included. Unbelievably, in over seven years, there has never been a soundtrack release from The Walking Dead…until now.
