Released just in time to entice fans back for the second season of the runaway hit HBO television program, TRUE BLOOD, Elektra Records unveils a soundtrack featuring key songs which were heard throughout Season One. Based on the novels by Charlaine Harris, TRUE BLOOD chronicles the adventures (and sometimes horrors) of having vampires dwell alongside the living in the deep South. Kicking off with the unmistakable swagger of the theme song, Jace Everett's "Bad Things," the soundtrack consists largely of country-soaked rockabilly and quirky, bluesy folk rock songs. Featured artists include Lucinda Williams, the Flying Burrito Brothers, Ryan Adams, and Dr. John.
