There's a Stranger Things soundtrack coming out Friday

At least we can now jam out to some '80's-inspired tunes while we wait for the release of Stranger Things' second season. On Wednesday, makers of the Netflix original series announced that Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein, the duo behind the show's score, will release part one of a two-part soundtrack on Friday, Aug. 12.

The track list, released by Rolling Stone, revealed plenty of song titles with inside references, including "Lay-Z-Boy," "Eleven," "One Blink for Yes," and "No Autopsy."

Friday's release will be the digital version of part one; the CD release is slated for Sept. 16. The second part will be digitally released on Aug. 19, and the CD will come out Sept. 23.
