AllMusic[1]

The soundtrack to the film Suspiria was composed and performed by the Italian band Goblin. A single version of the title track, "Suspiria", was released with the B-side "Blind Concert".

The title song from the soundtrack was featured in the trailer for the 2011 film Jane Eyre.

In 2018, Claudio Simonetti's incarnation of the band went on the Suspiria Tour to coincide with the release of the film's 2018 remake. The band performed the soundtrack in its entirety with a live screening of the original film.[2]

Legacy

[edit]

Due to the film's success and legacy, the soundtrack remains one of Goblin's most popular albums. In an interview with Fact Magazine, Simonetti referred to the album as the band's masterpiece.[3]
