MORE MUSIC ON "BUFFY"

"Buffy the Vampire Slayer" made music an integral part of the show from the very first season. Throughout each episode, music is used to express characters' emotions, foreshadow events or just add texture to the tone of an episode.

Many unknown bands were featured on the shows' soundtracks, but from Seasons One to Four, I heard the following:

THE BRIAN JONESTOWN MASSACRE
ASH
ECHOBELLY
SARAH MACLACHLAN
LUSCIOUS JACKSON
THE CURE
MOBY
FASTBALL
NERF HERDER (who also composed and performed the "Buffy" theme song)
LISA LOEB
BLINK 182
a song called "Jodie Foster" by THE PINEHURST KIDS
LOTION
LOU REED
CHER
VERBANA
PATSY CLINE
SUPERGRASS
CRACKER
CREAM
DAVID BOWIE
FATBOY SLIM
BARRY WHITE
CRACKER
THE MUFFS
THE SUNDAYS
SID VICIOUS'S "My Way"
