For Asato Tsuzuki, a free-spirited supernatural investigator and a Guardian of Death, it's business as usual in the afterlife, until he's paired up with a new partner, Hisoka. At odds with each other, the duo must cooperate to solve grisly cases involving serial killers, vampires and demons. Directly from the anime series, the soundtrack to "Descendants of Darkness" features 28 tracks of sublime, equisite music, including the TV size versions of the opening song, 'Eden' and the show's ending theme 'Love Me.'
