Thor: Ragnarok Soundtrack

Thor: Ragnarok (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the soundtrack album to the 2017 film Thor: Ragnarok, featuring music composed by Mark Mothersbaugh.

Background
By August 2016, Mark Mothersbaugh was hired to score the film. Mothersbaugh was influenced by a video essay from the YouTube channel Every Frame a Painting, which criticized the scores from previous Marvel Cinematic Universe films for their lack of memorability, to make the score for Thor: Ragnarok as distinctive as possible. The score was recorded at Abbey Road Studios. The synthesized score is influenced by the work of Jean-Michel Jarre. Mothersbaugh combined synthesizer keyboards he used from his days with the band Devo with a 100-piece orchestra. Patrick Doyle's themes from Thor and Brian Tyler's themes from Thor: The Dark World and Avengers: Age of Ultron, as well as Joe Harnell's "The Lonely Man" theme from The Incredible Hulk series, are also used in the film. Director Taika Waititi would have asked the band Queen to work on the soundtrack for the film (if their lead singer Freddie Mercury was still alive) because the film is "a cool bold, colourful cosmic adventure" which would have suited the "feel" of the band. Hollywood Records released the film's soundtrack digitally on October 20, 2017 and was released physically on November 10, 2017.
