If you have a Vampire Chronicles playlist please send it to me! I so love seeing/hearing peoples choices in relation to characters!

I wanna make a more in depth post (POSTS! plural, lets be real) about this at some point when I get a chance, UNTIL THEN HERE’S A FEW REC’S!

SO LIKE whenever I read or write something I get obsessive about picking PERFECT MUSIC, and sometimes it’ll be like a song or a playlist, but I tend to gravitate as albums as complete pieces of music so I get TRULY EXCITED if I can find a perfect *ALBUM*. So. Last time I read through VC (a few months back!) these were my choices as the PERFECT ALBUM for each book. There are nuances, like I could pick a couple standout tracks or whatever for each BUT WE’D BE HERE ALL GODDAMN DAY so for now I’ll just drop some albums and we can elaborate later. 😀 But this is a topic I always wanna talk about and I have A LOT TO SAY so ask anytime. 

Interview with the Vampire – Pale Communion by Opeth!

The Vampire Lestat – Beyond the Veil by Tristania!

The Queen of the Damned – Saurian Meditation by Karl Sanders! 

The Tale of the Body Thief – Battle for the Sun by Placebo!  (this one I had a playlist of like, half the album. Basically all the gloomier songs LOL.)

Memnoch the Devil – Black Ice by Eicca Toppinen!

Pandora –  Shatter Me by Lindsey Stirling!

The Vampire Armand – Symphony No. 6 in B Minor, Op. 74 Pathetique by Tchaikovsky!

Vittorio the Vampire – J.S. Bach – The Organ Works by Werner Jacob! (THIS IS A KIND OF OBSCURE COLLECTION THAT I FOUND AT THE LIBRARY ONCE AND IT’S NOT ON YOUTUBE BUT IT’S LIKE HOURS AND HOURS OF SPOOKY ORGAN MUSIC YEY)

Merrick – Self-Titled Dead Can Dance!

Blood & Gold – Yggdrasil by Wardruna!

Blackwood Farm – Voodoo by King Diamond!

Blood Canticle – First and Last and Always by The Sisters of Mercy! (to be fair I had a lot of Sisters of Mercy shuffling for this book cause they’re my headcanon for what Lestat’s band sounded like and in Blood Canticle he’s so fucking goofy and it’s like LOL OKAY LESTAT’S AWAKE, LET’S DEAL WITH THIS LOL)

Prince Lestat – The Art of the Fugue by J.S. Bach!

Prince Lestat & the Realms of Atlantis – Traced in Air by Cynic! (any and all moody Cynic songs work for this book cause they’re like proggy/spacey/underwater compliant and it’s GR8!!!) 

OKAY LIKE I COULD GO ON BUT. Let’s start with that. 😀
