Black Sabbath, Radiohead, Nick Cave and more set for Peaky Blinders soundtrack

Since it premiered in 2013, BBC TV crime drama Peaky Blinders has been captivating audiences and has gone on to critical acclaim, scooping a BAFTA in the process.

It’s now been revealed that the official soundtrack to accompany the series is to be released on November 11 on  2CD, 3LP and on digital and streaming platforms.

The collection brings together artists including Black Sabbath, David Bowie, Joy Division, Radiohead, Idles, Frank Carter And The Rattlesnakes, Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds, Royal Blood, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and PJ Harvey.

Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight, who was the driving force in highlighting the importance of music in the show, says: “The Peaky Blinders story and the music we use are twins, born at the same time. It would be difficult to imagine most of the pivotal moments without the soundtrack. 

“I’m so glad that at last we have been able to put some of the tracks together on one album, to put the atmosphere and swagger and snarl of the show into your headphones and speakers.”

The soundtrack also includes PJ Harvey's version of the theme song Red Right Hand – which was originally performed by Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds. 

Also on November 11, the Peaky Blinders box set featuring Series 1-5 will be released on DVD and Blu-ray. Find pre-order details below.
