The soundtrack includes classic songs from the ’60s and ’70s, such as "Jeepster” from British glam rock band T Rex, "Staggolee” from San Francisco blues band Pacific Gas Electric, "Down In Mexico” from doo-wop legends The Coasters, and "Good Love, Bad Love” by Stax R B legend Eddie Floyd. It also features a haunting composition, entitled "Paranoia Prima,” from legendary Italian film score composer Ennio Morricone. The songs are interspersed with dialogue voiced by the actors including Russell, , , and Michael Bacall.
The music perfectly captures the feel of the exploitation films that became popular in American cinema in the late ’60s and ’70s. With their explicit sex and excessive violence and gore, the films were mainly shown in inner-city theaters, called "grindhouses,” usually as back-to-back double features. "I grew up watching those type of movies and I loved them,” Tarantino says in Grindhouse: The Sleaze-Filled Saga of An Exploitation Double Feature. "The whole grindhouse experience, where you would see two horror films in these low ghetto theaters. Robert and I had the idea to actually do this film that is closer to a grindhouse ride and recreates the experience in one movie and in the best possible version ever presented.”
