Topic: Symphony of the Night going Vinyl

[Reinhart77]

It’s symphony’s soundtrack’s turn for a vinyl edition.  It’s interesting that the Saturn tracks will also be included.

The best description I've heard of the cover art for the album:

I don't like how Alucard looks like a pouty Victorian era girl whose father told her that she had to ride the second-best of their horses.

But the fact that the Nocturne songs will be included is plus, yes. I can't remember if they have been released prior to now on any officially licensed album. (Music Box Collection maybe?)

"Originally released for the Playstation 2, Symphony of the Night is considered one of the most essential video games of all time, and one of the parents of the genre now known as the 'Metroidvania,'" Mondo says.

should someone tell him

LOL! We could always let him find out on his own eventually.

Without knowing the track lengths, it's hard to say if this'll be a good soundtrack. The official CD gives me major blueballs because several good songs only loop once or not at all.

I'm a little more interested in SNES Dracula X finally getting a soundtrack release, though I wish it were on CD or at the least digital download. Somebody hit me up with some vinyl rips, yo.

Went through both of these finally and gave my thoughts.

tl;dr: The Rondo release is great and I recommend vinyl fans pick it up. The SotN one is kinda disappointing but not horrid.

Bloody Rears...

Good Lord.

Bloody Rears...

Good Lord.

LOL! I saw that too! Jesus, you'd thing they'd catch these things before the final printing. Wow (chuckle). Bloody rears... Must be that company's time of the month.

On a better note I like the way they did the record itself. I looks like they transposed a blood splatter onto the vinyl.
