Godzilla Minus One Score Up For Preorder From Waxwork Records

The epic score to Godzilla Minus One is up for preorder at Waxwork Records with a special vinyl release shipping in April.

Godzilla Minus One was one of the best films of 2023, and one of the best parts of it was the score. Naoki Sato turned in an instant classic, a sorrow-filled tour de force that will hopefully be recognized with many awards. Waxwork Records is the perfect company to release the vinyl of this one, and today, they put it up for preorder. The music is spread across two 150-gram "Godzilla Heat Ray" colored discs housed in a gatefold jacket. Some of the already iconic images from the film adorn the package. This is a preorder and is expected to ship in April. It will set you back $50. Check it out below.

Godzilla Minus One Waxwork Records Release Details

Set in the days after the end of World War II, Japan is reeling from the devastation left behind after the war. The emotional toll has brought the country to its lowest point. The story follows the failed kamikaze pilot Kiochi (Ryunosuke Kamiki) and Noriko (Minami Hamabe), a woman pushed into homelessness, taking care of an abandoned child. During this low point, Godzilla marches ashore, pulling Japan even deeper into chaos and devastation. The score, composed by Naoki Sato, is filled with mournful, elegant music that brings the listener into the despair and the fiery hopefulness of the characters as they must fight against the raw power of Godzilla. Sato was inspired by the works of Japanese animated films from Studio Ghibli for the emotional moments and the powerful work of original Godzilla composer Akira Ifukube's score to punctuate the moments of kaiju terror. This mixing of the serene and grandiose creates one of the most unique and gorgeous scores of the year.
