Critics and listeners generally praise the album for its ability to evoke the film's \"cold hand on the back of your neck\" dread without relying on a traditional orchestral score. The soundtrack is described as \"profoundly iconoclastic\" and \"viscerally evocative\". It is noted for balancing the \"stremecedor\" (shocking) impact of avant-garde classical pieces with the more melodic, though still eerie, rock themes. Mike Oldfield’s \"Tubular Bells\" is the album’s most famous inclusion. While originally just a track from Oldfield's debut album, it became synonymous with horror, despite being used sparingly in the film to represent scientific and medical hopelessness against the supernatural.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist Website: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.discogs.com\/release\/724744-Various-Music-Excerpts-From-William-Peter-Blattys-The-Exorcist\"\u003ediscogs\/Various-The-Exorcist\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelated Artists: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q='Mike%20Oldfield'\"\u003eMike Oldfield, \u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/search?q='jack%20Nitzsche'\"\u003eJack Nitzsche, \u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/search?q='Harry%20Bee'\"\u003eHarry Bee, \u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/search?q='George%20Crumb'\"\u003eGeorge Crumb, \u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/search?q='Krzysztof%20Penderecki'\"\u003eKrzysztof Penderecki, \u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/search?q='Anton%20Webern'\"\u003eAnton Webern\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCollections: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/en-jp\/collections\/cult-movie-soundtracks\"\u003eCult Movies\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e","brand":null,"offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42316873793618,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1712\/4551\/files\/various-artists-the-exorcist-Cover-Art.jpg?v=1772579752","url":"https:\/\/www.artrockstore.com\/en-jp\/products\/various-artists-the-exorcist-soundtrack-album","provider":"Artrockstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
