The fifth and final season of Netflix’s sci-fi series Stranger Things features an exciting soundtrack that includes tracks from Butthole Surfers, Pixies, and Iron Maiden. Fans can look forward to hearing the Surfers’ “Human Cannonball,” Pixies’ “Here Comes Your Man,” and Maiden’s classic “The Trooper.”
The album also includes other great songs like The Psychedelic Furs’ “Pretty in Pink,” David Bowie’s “Heroes,” and Cowboy Junkies’ cover of The Velvet Underground’s “Sweet Jane.”
In a fun twist, Butthole Surfers’ music is referenced in a scene where Finn Wolfhard’s character, Mike, talks about a weapon designed to fight the Upside Down, linking it to a spinning Surfers record. However, Maya Hawke’s character, Robin, suggests that The Replacements would be a better choice for saving the world.
Interestingly, Finn Wolfhard is co-writing a script for a Replacements biopic in real life.
Both Stranger Things season 5 and its soundtrack are now available, so fans can dive into the music and the final chapter of this beloved series!
