Also featuring the likes of Radiohead, Arctic Monkeys, The White Stripes, Royal Blood, The Last Shadow Puppets, Queens of the Stone Age, Black Sabbath, David Bowie, Laura Marling, and Foals, the release comes with Jehnny Beth’s ‘I’m The Man‘ and Anna Calvi’s series five score ‘You’re Not God‘, along with Richard Hawley’s Bob Dylan cover ‘Ballad of A Thin Man‘.
“The Peaky Blinders story and the music we use are twins, born at the same time,” said show creator Steven Knight. “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.”
Cillian Murphy, who plays lead Tommy Shelby in the show, told NME: “You just know when a song is ‘Peaky’. The artists are outsiders. They have resisted the tyranny of the mainstream, shall we say?”

The double CD and triple LP sets feature music and key clips of dialogue from all five series the show, while CD version also includes a 32-page book with images from the show, behind the scenes notes from Guardian journalist Phil Harrison, quotes from the cast and ‘The Chap’ magazine in conversation with Peaky Blinders’ costume designer, Alison McCosh.

Anna Calvi recently spoke to NME about adopting Tommy Shelby’s mindspace for her work on the score for Peaky Blinders season five.
“The idea of evoking something genderless is definitely something that I explored on my record [2019 album] ‘Hunter’. There’s something about Tommy that’s not just his wife or Lizzie making him have a feminine mind,” she said. “There’s something intrinsically weirdly genderless about him as a character. Maybe it’s because it’s not about him saying things – you feel his thinking just by his stare.
“You’re almost a shadow to the character.”
Meanwhile, progress is already underway with season six of Peaky Blinders, with the show set to start filming at the start of next year before returning to screens in 2021.
