Nearly 20 million people watch NCIS each week, making it one of the most popular shows in the country.

15 of the album’s 22 tracks are brand new and previously unreleased recordings, more than half of those from top-name artists – including Blue October, Oasis, Dashboard Confessional, Seether, The Airborne Toxic Event, Jakob Dylan, Saving Abel, Perry Farrell, and electronica pioneers Nitzer Ebb - all currently exclusive to this soundtrack album.

Also included are new recordings from NCIS stars Pauley Perrette (Abby Sciuto), who performs the self-composed “Fear” under the moniker Stop Making Friends, and Cote de Pablo (Ziva David) whose memorable performance of Tom Waits’ “Temptation” from a recent episode is included on the soundtrack.

The disc marks first commercial availability of the NCIS theme, which has garnered literally hundreds of millions of impressions since the series debuted six years ago, along with a newly created remix from Industrial legends Ministry.
