The Last of Us album features score music written by Santaolalla and Fleming for the nine-episode first season of HBO’s drama adaptation of the critically acclaimed Naughty Dog video game for PlayStation. Having scored both the original video game and its 2020 sequel, The Last of Us Part II, Santaolalla builds on his previous work, expanding the intimate, guitar-driven soundscape to deliver a score as emotionally laden as the story itself.
“Creating the music for the HBO series based on the video game The Last Of Us was, in a way, an expansion of what we have developed and recorded for the first installment of the game,” Santaolalla said in a statement. “Once again, the emotion at the heart of the score this time driven by the vision of [series co-creators] Neil Druckmann and Craig Mazin and by the power of this amazing story.”
Added Fleming, “I’m so thrilled to be releasing our soundtrack for this newest chapter in the story of The Last of Us. Working alongside Gustavo has been a true honor. His music for this series is iconic, and it was tremendous fun to play within that sonic universe, while adding some new layers of madness to fit Craig and Neil’s incredible vision for this show. Even at its most aggressive, I wanted the music to feel derived from the real world — bowed steel, cracking wood — these are sounds for a civilization that has rusted and warped. I hope the fans have as much fun diving into this world as I have.”
