Background
Fleischer reunited with Zombieland composer David Sardy to return for the sequel. The film's musical palette follows the same signature style of its predecessor: ranging from hard rock and heavy metal genres, with few influences of spaghetti western, taking cues from Ennio Morricone's works.
Release
The soundtrack was released through Sony Classical Records on October 18, 2019, the same day as the film.
Reception
John DeFore of Variety and Peter Debruge of The Hollywood Reporter described the score as "thrilling" and "bombastic". Xanthe Pajarillo of KXSC wrote "Dave Sardy opts for an unconventional score that mashes up Western and country licks with eerie tones of dread" and concluded, "this is an extremely bold, unique, and tasty collection of cues that leaves you wanting more."
