The Umbrella Academy's Season 3 Soundtrack Is Full Of Throwback Jams

Before The Umbrella Academy became Netflix’s biggest superhero series to date, the comic’s creator (and series executive producer) Gerard Way was best known as co-founder and singer of My Chemical Romance. The series has certainly taken inspiration from Way’s musical background, with extraordinary soundtracks full of deep-cut indie hits every season, and the latest installment is no exception. The Umbrella Academy’s Season 3 soundtrack is basically the mixtape of bangers everyone wishes Luther would make for them.

Like with Season 1, Season 3 of The Umbrella Academy returns to the present day after spending all of Season 2 in the 1960s. The refocus on the current timeline also means a return to present-day music. But unlike Season 1, an indie deep-cut lover’s dream, Season 3 isn’t afraid to put some significant hits front and center as well as some timeless classics. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t rustle up some obscure covers, including one from a superhero-from-another-franchise, Jeremy Renner.

The series revolves around time, its changes, the sudden lack of it, and making the most of what’s left. That means the series gives characters significant milestones in a way that audiences haven’t seen yet, from pregnancies and babies to weddings and engagements and even a funeral or two. The result is a soundtrack that includes everything from karaoke favorites to love songs and a few tearjerkers.
