We are thrilled to announce the full tracklist for NCIS: The Official TV Soundtrack - Vol.2. This second volume of a specially produced soundtrack for the hit television series NCIS will be released on Tuesday, November 3rd, and is available now for pre-order on Amazon.

NCIS: The Official TV Soundtrack - Vol.2 features brand new and previously unreleased tracks from some of music’s most popular artists - including Bob Dylan, Norah Jones, John Mellencamp, Sheryl Crow, Joss Stone, Sick Puppies and Saosin - that are available exclusively on this soundtrack.  In its seventh season, NCIS is the #1 most-watched show on television, with more than 20 million viewers weekly.

To coincide with the album’s release date, the November 3rd episode of NCIS will prominently feature Bob Dylan’s “California” - a never-before-released track that originally dates from the Bringing It All Back Home sessions and has remained locked in the vaults until now.  “California” has been newly mixed and mastered and is a true gem from one of music’s greatest artists.  The remaining tracks will be placed in NCIS episodes throughout the current season, which ends in May 2010.

The soundtrack also features a brand new song from NCIS star Michael Weatherly (Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo), “Bitter And Blue,” that was recorded especially for this soundtrack.  Exclusive new tracks from rising stars Sharon Little and Keaton Simons are also featured, as are Otis Redding’s “I’ve Got Dreams To Remember” and Tom Lehrer’s “The Elements,” that were both heard in previous episodes of NCIS and were suggested by the show’s fans in a poll conducted through this ncismusic.com!

Two tracks exclusive to NCIS: The Official TV Soundtrack will be featured in tonight’s very-special episode of NCIS:  “Boy With The Blues” by Oasis and “Even Now” from Dashboard Confessional.

Hailing from Manchester, England, Oasis has sold more than 50 million albums worldwide since the release of its debut album, Definitely Maybe, in 1991.  The band’s followup, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, became the second biggest selling album in UK  history, and reached the Top 10 in the  U.S.  and all over Europe and Asia.  The success of the band’s first two albums cemented Oasis as one of the biggest and most important bands in the world, and their stature has only increased in the 21st century.

Several notable songs have been written by band lead singer Liam Gallagher, including “Boy With The Blues. Recorded during sessions for the band’s most recent album, Dig Out Your Soul, “Boy With The Blues” has never before been released in the U.S., and is available here exclusively on the soundtrack.

Led by singer-songwriter Chris Carrabba, Dashboard Confessional began in 2000 as a vehicle for the artist’s intimately personal acoustic-based songs and as a side project from his previous band, Further Seems Forever.  A hugely popular appearance on MTV’s Unplugged and the release of their third album, the Platinum-selling A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar, cemented their stature as one of America’s most popular bands.

“Even Now” is a brand new recording from Dashboard Confessional, and available only on NCIS: The Official TV Soundtrack.

After fifteen years as songwriter, lead singer and guitarist for The Wallflowers, Jakob Dylan released his first solo album, Seeing Things, in 2008.  Produced by Rick Rubin, the album’s 10 tracks are mostly delivered via stark acoustic arrangements which provide the perfect setting for Dylan’s distinctive vocals and outstanding songs.

The album received critical raves, as did a string of tours on both sides of the Atlantic that saw Dylan headlining his own dates, playing key festivals such as Bonnaroo and Austin City Limits, and opening for such legends as Eric Clapton and Willie Nelson.

For “No Matter What”, featured in tonight’s episode, the two-time Grammy Award winner fronts a band of renowned musicians – including Don Was on bass and Benmont Tench on keyboards – to deliver one of his most stirring ballads to date.  The track is available exclusively on NCIS: The Official TV Soundtrack.

For our latest contest, we invite you to play visual detective and win a copy of NCIS: The Official TV Soundtrack, autographed by the cast of NCIS:  Mark Harmon, Michael Weatherly, Cote de Pablo, Pauley Perrette, David McCallum, Sean Murray, Rocky Carroll and Brian Dietzen.

Go to our Contests page to enter.

In celebration of Season 6, we are giving away 6 autographed copies of the soundtrack.  Winners will be chosen at random from among all of the accurate entries.  The contest ends April 6th, 2009.

Good Luck!  You can also use our Tell A Friend function to let your friends know about our website, contests and giveaways.

We are thrilled to present the world premiere of Perry Farrell’s brand new video for “Nasty Little Perv”.  Just  “Media” page to view this great new clip.  The song is also prominently featured in tonight’s episode of NCIS and is available exclusively on NCIS: The Official TV Soundtrack.

Perry Farrell has been one of music’s most significant figures and cultural leaders since emerging from the  Los Angeles club scene in the late 1980s.  His band, Jane’s Addiction, is generally considered one of the seminal influences on alternative music, and remains so nearly two decades after Farrell disbanded the group.  The band recently announced a U.S. tour with Nine Inch Nails that kicks off May 8 and runs through June 12, and have recently confirmed that rumors of a Jane’s Addiction studio recording project are true.

There was an overwhelming response to our “Season Six So Far” contest a few weeks back, with literally thousands of people entering to win one of ten NCIS Soundtrack posters autographed by the cast of NCIS: Mark Harmon, Michael Weatherly, Cote de Pablo, Pauley Perrette, David McCallum, Sean Murray and Rocky Carroll.

Well…we’ve asked the cast to sign 10 more soundtrack posters so we could create another contest and get these instant collector’s items into the hands of some lucky NCIS fans.  And this time, the contest couldn’t be simpler.
