RELEASE DESCRIPTION

"Crush all of them!"

Ship to Shore PhonoCo. is proud to present the original soundtrack to KONAMI's seminal masterpiece Gradius Gaiden, now available on vinyl for the very first time!

Released on PlayStation 1 consoles in Japan in 1997, Gradius Gaiden was the first in the Gradius series specifically designed for console play, building on mechanics made precedent by previous installments. Perhaps the most beloved entry in the franchise, the game is a barn-storming, adrenaline-pumping shoot 'em up that has captured the imagination of players for nearly thirty years. Konami Kukeiha Club's score combines otherworldly soundscapes, infectious melodies, and driving beats to perfection, complementing the ethereal backdrops and on-screen carnage flawlessly.

Now pressed onto two slices of gorgeous wax with newly remastered audio, featuring an exclusive variant available only from the Ship to Shore webstore, and adorned with new cover artwork by artist Ian Wilding, Gradius Gaiden: Original Video Game Soundtrack finally makes its explosive debut in the world of VGM on vinyl!
