The 2009 Watchmen film was a fantastic piece of cinematic history. As such, it has a pair of animated spin-offs like all successful film adaptations. However, you will find the animated Watchment soundtrack music on a single album.
Based on the DC comics, the Watchmen soundtrack for the animated films, Chapters I and II, is now available. The album features 17 tracks from the film’s composer, Tim Kelly.
DC fans will enjoy both music and films, but only if they find them. Therefore, keep reading to learn where you can find both for your collection.
Watchmen Chapters I and II Soundtrack Album Now Available
DC Comics has some of the best animated adaptations in the industry. Marvel may dominate live-action movies, but none of their animated offerings come close to what DC has done. DC has the best storylines, animation, music, and more in the animation industry.
I suspect the same will be the case for the Watchmen two-part animated movie event now on HBO Max. With two movies out at the same time, there is a lot of music to hear. Fortunately, DC and Lakeshore Records made it easy for me by compiling the entire animated Watchment soundtrack onto a single album.

What Other Soundtrack Music Has DC Released?
Movie studios rarely release the soundtrack music from their direct-to-video animated films. So, when it happens, we must celebrate. However, knowing when it happens can be tough. Luckily, you can read about them here on Toon Radio, letting me do the work for you.
