Kokkyou Junreika
Packaged in a mini LP sleeve with obi, 4-page & 12-page booklets of lyrics and Japanese liner notes and anti-static CD sleeve in a resealable clear plastic sleeve.. Tokyo playwright, director and artist J.A. Caesar sprang to prominence in the early '70s largely through his work with Shuji Terayama's Tenjo Sajiki Theatre, specializing in vaguely sinister music reminiscent of a Hammer House Of Horrors soundtrack. 1973's Kokkyou Junreika release, often considered Caesar's finest work, was culled fr…

Jashumon
Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and three inserts/booklet. This mighty soundtrack for Shuji Terayama's nihilistic movie of the same name contains all the elements necessary to reach J.A. Caesar's intended pleasure-centers. Here, turmoil, mind-numbing repetition, abject misery and grisly partriarchs abound, and all orchestrated by Caesar's damaged proto-metal and choral-led psychedelic sound. Mind-infesting in the truest sense, this soundtrack played in th…

Genova a Mano Armata
*100 copies limited edition* Franco Micalizzi wrote one of his best OSTs for the Poliziesco genre with this one (the main theme is one of Micalizzi's favorites and he often performs it live in concert with his orchestra Big Bubbling Band). The OST opens with the strong main score written for woodwinds and percussion, which is then reprised with different arrangements throughout the film. It is also alternated with moments of suspense. The violent urban jungle atmosphere is broken by Sambamba, a …
