According to brooklynvegan.com, season three of FX and Hulu’s hit show The Bear dropped on June 26 and while many watch for the tension, other viewers are excited to hear the impressive accompanying soundtrack. The new season did not feature any big hits but at the closing credits, it was revealed that Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross were the creators of the episode one score. The Bear lists “Music by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross,” the Nine Inch Nails song “Together” from 2020 ambient album Ghost IV: Together was used throughout the episode to build atmosphere.

Episode two opens with a lovely acoustic cover of The English Beat’s 1982 classic “Save it For Later” by Eddie Vedder. The Bear had already used Pearl Jam’s songs “Animal” and “Come Back” in previous episodes. Different renditions of “Save it For Later” pop up throughout the series as a bit of a theme for the moments in the season. Vedder shared the cover last night shortly after Season three was released on Hulu.
