The film is referenced in several songs. The plot is recapitulated in Scott Walker's "The Seventh Seal" from his album "Scott 4". There is a passing reference in Bruce Cockburn's song "How I Spent My Fall Vacation", from his album "Humans", in which the song's narrative is bracketed by two young men watching the film in a cinema. On Iron Maiden's album "Dance of Death" (2003), the title track was inspired by the final scene of "The Seventh Seal" where, according to guitarist Janick Gers, "these figures on the horizon start doing a little jig, which is the dance of death."
