The variety of the OST is what I was hoping for. We have 'classical' instrumental pieces - 'Camellia' in particular putting me in mind of the Princess Mononoke score, of all things - alongside rap, rock and some vaguely jazzy bits in between. Whoever the composer was, I want more of this stuff.
Current favourites are 'Krieg' (I think that's the name), 'Camellia', and despite my usual dislike of their kind of thing 'Black Star (never lose myself)' and 'Death the Kid (so crazy)'. Just too darn catchy. However, when it comes to what's put into the show, watching 22 raw last night I did think that perhaps the music was getting a bit over-the-top. Spoiler:
Great, fun collection of tracks, all the same. |

As expected there's a few BGM's i wanted to appear on this that haven't, though i'm sure we'll see another soundtrack release at a later date, so i'm not all that down.
Still one hell of a listen though, and as good as i expected. Favorite tracks and so on will come later from me.

I usually hate hiphop and rap style of music, but this time it's just awesome.
Favourite tracks : Psychedelic Souljam (the preview bgm) BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! HAVE A NICE DREAM (Kid's theme music) -repeats the OST-

Great OST, happy to see they included the Mifune track. Death the Kidd and Have a nice dream are awesome too.

This is what makes Taku such a brilliant composer --- even though he sticks to the same style for each of his works, each one still is able to stand by itself at being rather different compared to most scores by the big names that are appearing.

It was a bizarre experience indeed to being in a shop today...with 'Krieg' in my ears. Looking at mundane electronic appliances? A track entitled 'War'! |

It really is a very nice OST. Just good variety with the type of music you'll find in there. Just having played a wind instrument Camellia is one of my favourites in there. Though some great high pace songs also. Definitely a win overall with this one.
