Description: Akira Ifukube - Rodan (OST) - Limited Edition Color Vinyl Kaiju LP - New & Sealed - Ships Fast!!! Behold the might of Rodan, the giant monster from the sky! In 1956, The Japanese movie studio Toho unleashed their first color kaiju picture: RODAN. Directed by Ishiro Honda and produced by Tomoyuki Tanaka, it's a terrifying tale from the creators of the original Godzilla that sees a giant Pteranodon rise from a deep underground cave after being disturbed by miners. Like Godzilla, Rodan has mutated to excessive size after being exposed to nuclear radiation, subsequently soaring free above Kyushu to cause as much mayhem as possible as the JSDF do their best to protect the island from his bloodthirsty rampaging. It was inevitable that the man behind the music of Godzilla would also take on scoring RODAN, and the great Akira Ifukube created a score with a solemn edge as with Godzilla, which makes the music of RODAN fit in the larger universe while allowing it to feel unique to the character. For the main theme, Ifukube introduces a malevolent low piano and brass phrase before cointerpointing it with horns to create a howling menace worthy of Rodan. In contrast, beautiful but melancholy material represents the carnage the monster has brought upon the Earth; in a more upbeat mode, the composer includes another of his jaunty and jazzy marches for the JDSF in the guise of “Get Rodan”. It’s another Toho triumph from the great maestro Akira Ifukube! This limited edition edition color vinyl is numbered, and a must-have for any fan of kaiju & monster movies - especially Godzilla!.
