Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Soundtrack in the Works

Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. composer Bear McCreary told his Twitter followers today that there's work underway on a soundtrack for the ABC drama.

"I had an incredible experience scoring the first season, because I got to work with insightful producers and brilliant musicians, to create a score that was both retro cool and edgy," McCreary recently wrote. 

And @AgentsofSHIELD fans, soundtrack plans are afoot. Nothing official to confirm yet, but stay tuned. You will be very happy :)

"In season two, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. still has its share of secrets and discovering them keeps the narrative intriguing," McCreary continued. "This time, however, our heroes face a very different task. Their infrastructure has been demolished. They are now on the run from the military industrial complex that once supported them. Our protagonists are still reeling from the personal betrayals they suffered last season, some in surprising ways.

"The look and tone of this season is darker than last. The producers and I wanted the sound of the score to reflect this change. I used the season premiere, "Shadows," as an opportunity to nudge the music into the shadows, crafting new themes and bringing a different perspective to our familiar themes that survived from last season."

McCreary, one of the most prolific composers in Hollywood, has had success with his soundtracks for AMC's The Walking Dead.
