The most recent episode once again featured a variety of licensed songs.
Episode 5 of Dexter: Resurrection Season 1, titled “Murder H*rny,” is one that fans won’t soon forget. With some bold and unexpected twists, it challenged viewer expectations—particularly surrounding the evolving dynamic between Mia and Dexter. While many praised the direction the story took, it has certainly sparked debate across the fandom, as the momentum from Episode 4 and the first half of this episode took an unexpected turn.
One standout element of this episode—and the series overall—continues to be its soundtrack. The music curation in Dexter: Resurrection has been consistently impressive, with licensed tracks that enhance the narrative beats of each scene.
Credit goes to Sean Fernald, the new music supervisor for the franchise, who’s brought a fresh and dynamic energy to the show’s soundscape. His selections—alongside those of Clyde Phillips and Scott Reynolds—reflect a deep understanding of how music and storytelling intertwine, and his work so far has been nothing short of excellent.
Episode 5 features a mix of intimate character moments and atmospheric scenes, many of which take place in outdoor settings and upscale New York City bars. Naturally, these sequences called for a diverse and engaging soundtrack—and the team delivered. This episode blends genres and decades, seamlessly mixing modern alt-rock with cult classics and even a special remix from Michael C. Hall’s own band, Princess Goes.
Below is a complete guide to all the songs featured in Dexter: Resurrection Episode 5, along with the scenes in which they appear. We've also highlighted the haunting end credits track—a temporary replacement for Daniel Licht’s iconic “Blood Theme”—which longtime fans will instantly recognize.
