The exhilarating Neon Genesis Evangelion soundtrack is coming to vinyl
The official soundtrack for the Neon Genesis Evangelion anime is coming to vinyl on August 24, and you can pre-order it now for $39.99 at Amazon, or $34.35 at Walmart. The double vinyl set starts off with the fist-pumping, don’t-you-dare-skip-the-intro song “A Cruel Angel’s Thesis,” followed by Shiro Sagisu’s stellar compositions that back the show’s unforgettable and haunting episodes.
Prices taken at time of publishing.
Despite its relatively low price, this set feels like a deluxe edition, as it includes two blue-and-black marbled vinyls, a gorgeous insert showing information on the songs, and a gatefold cover with a collage of still images, all key moments from the anime that make me want to rewatch it. Crunchyroll has a special edition of this soundtrack that instead contains tangerine-and-red colored vinyls for the same price, in case you prefer colors that perhaps don’t immediately remind you of the show’s dour themes.
Here’s the tracklist:
