Background and release


Charmed: The Book of Shadows was produced by Jonathan Platt and Jonathan Scott Miller.[2] The soundtrack is made up mostly of tracks by little-known artists, though some better known ones, such as Dido, Vanessa Carlton, Sarah McLachlan and Ashlee Simpson, are also featured.[1] It also includes Charmed's theme song "How Soon Is Now?" by Love Spit Love.[3] Charmed: The Book of Shadows was released as a worldwide digital download on January 1, 2005 by Silva Screen Records.[3] It was later released as a CD in the United States on April 19, 2005 and in the United Kingdom on September 5, 2005.[4][5]

The soundtrack's cover features a small photograph of the show's Book of Shadows, which the soundtrack is named after.


Reception


Heather Phares of AllMusic gave Charmed: The Book of Shadows three stars out of five and praised the way in which the soundtrack "streamlines its approach", in comparison to the first soundtrack album, by focusing on a wide variety of female artists, echoing the theme of female empowerment raised in the television series.[1] Whilst aware that the soundtrack has little direct tie-in with the series, Phares complemented its use of little-known artists as well as its mixture of different musical genres in creating an original approach to a television soundtrack.[1] On May 7, 2005, Charmed: The Book of Shadows debuted at number 9 on the US Billboard Top Soundtracks chart[6] and number 20 on the US Billboard Top Independent Albums chart.[7]
