Stranger Things has contained some of the best soundtracks on record for Netflix. From Metallica to The Clash and Kate Bush, there’s a little something for everyone in the pool of 80s nostalgia. We’ve compiled all of the soundtracks as best we can from all four seasons into an ultimate Stranger Things playlist. Below you’ll find our Spotify playlist, which contains many of the songs featured in all four seasons of Stranger Things.
