This page is an attempt to list all known "Various Artist" compilations and soundtracks that have featured TMBG (and solo Linnell / Flansburgh work) over the years. Some albums feature original TMBG songs, created specifically for that compilation. Many of these albums were released as "promotional" compilations for the music industry, and were not sold directly to the public.
