Capcom Sound Team – Resident Evil 7: Biohazard - Original Soundtrack

Never bought a "game soundtrack" especially for that price, but "go tell aunt rhody" is now a very nostalgic piece for me, like the game too. so after the steelbook, i decided to buy this too just for collection. i think this is more a collectors piece than for listening, but this song is amazing, not very positive but great :)

off topic: 2017 was a special year, great song came out like "something just like this", or this one, great games like resident evil 7. very very nostalgic year.

My copy clicks all the way through. Cleaned it but it didn't make a difference. It's mad that we're basically expected to clean brand new records, even madder when it doesn't remove the clicks. I think that it should be stated that the majority of these Resident Evil records, at least from my experience, are defective. Not just RE7.

Shame they don't get CD releases as standard anymore.

On the soundtrack itself. It's a very abrasive and acquired taste listening experience. I appreciate them adding in DLC, menu and VR tracks. The music suits the game very well; it's an intense and overwhelming listen, similar to the game itself which was criticised for being too scary. Good stuff and generally glad to have this for the collection.

I like the slick artwork with the orange highlights. Not a huge fan of the way you have to remove the discs - I prefer what they did with RE2make OST.

FYI - you can get high quality flacs from Steam for £15 I think. That's the best way to listen to this.

While the score molds (no pun intended) with the game exceptionally well, this is not what I would consider to be a soundtrack worth dropping significant money on. By and large it lacks the melody of previous Resident Evil soundtracks, something I consider to be core to any album; this score is almost entirely ambient and abstract noise.

Having said that, the saferoom theme is another winner, and brings back memories of warm light and a brief, welcome respite from the horrors lurking inside and around the Baker residence.

More and more expensive, less and less affordable. Just for collectors ...
Paying 85 euros for a box of 4 vinyls is really expensive. For this price, the pressings have to be perfect and obviously, that is never the case. There will always be one side with some surface noise, another side with a little scratch. Perfection does not exist any more today ... The general listening is rather good but still some slightly warped sides like most of the vinyls coming from GZ media .... For the price, IT is absolutely scandalous that the lps are not in anti static sleeves. I continue the collection a little out of obligation because I am a fan of resident evil BUT it is clear that this mass production and this increase in prices and this decrease in quality will make me buy less and less lp ...

After a couple of somewhat disappointing Resident Evil releases (pressing quality-wise) I'm happy to see that Laced have finally switched pressing plant from Optimal to GZ and the difference in quality is very clear. This is a much better pressing than the last few RE releases. It sounds very clean (barring a few pops I did hear throughout all 8 sides) and quality is nice.

My main complaint is that I don't like this type of gatefold box set as it feels very flimsy, but I suppose that's entirely subjective. Overall, though, I'm quite satisfied with this release and happy to see the series switch to a higher quality pressing plant.
