Notes

  • This album contained both music that had been featured in the show, as well as music whose themes were in line with the concepts of the show.
  • The Japanese edition has been given a Japanese title that translates to "X Files Official Soundtrack".
  • The CD contains 2 hidden tracks by "Nick Cave And The Dirty Three" before track 1. To access the hidden track, you must hold down the reverse button and rewind past 0:00. There is a hint in the liner notes that says Nick Cave and The Dirty Three would like you to know that "0" is also a number.
  • Because of the 2 hidden tracks, real track number of "My Dark Life" is 12.
