Various Artists - God of War (2005 Original Soundtrack)

In honour of the 20th Anniversary of ‘God of War’, Sony Interactive Entertainment’s Santa Monica Studio and Laced Records have united to bring the mighty Greek saga soundtracks to vinyl.

The original ‘God of War’ was a bold statement of intent: challenging, brutally violent, steeped in Greek mythology and visually spectacular. A pantheon of composers contributed to the game, fleshing out different areas and character themes. Shimmering Mediterranean atmospheres give way to enormous, tragic themes. Ancient and ethnic instrumentation sit alongside orchestral textures, all working towards the goal of establishing Kratos’s Greece as a place of magic and mysticism, divine machinations and bloody conflict.

Double LP on heavyweight vinyl, featuring 23 specially remastered tracks from the landmark 2005 PlayStation 2 title, presented in a widespined outer sleeve with printed inner sleeves. LP2, Side B features an etching of the ‘God of War’ logo. Sleeve artwork includes rare and unseen pieces from Santa Monica Studio’s archive.
