Nirvana fans might have recognized the song in the “Westworld” Season 2 trailer that dropped Thursday morning.
“Game of Thrones” composer Ramin Djawadi reimagined Nirvana’s hit “Heart Shaped Box” for the two-and-a-half-minute spot. “Westworld: Season 1 (Music from the HBO Series)” is now on Spotify and iTunes, and contains covers from Djawadi including Soundgarden’s “Black Hole Sun,” Amy Winehouse’s “Back to Black,” The Rolling Stones’ “Paint It, Black,” The Cure’s “A Forest,” and Radiohead’s “No Surprises.”
In the trailer, “Heart Shaped Box” was the background to a robocalypse and the introduction of Shogun World.
The next season opens with a setup we’ve seen before: Dolores (Evan Rachel Wood) and Bernard (Jeffrey Wright) having a chat.
