Gears of War: E-Day (Deluxe Double Vinyl)

The Coalition and Laced Records are making a desperate last stand to bring the emotive score of Gears of War: E-Day to vinyl.
 
Music tracks have been remastered for vinyl and pressed to heavyweight discs, with the tracklist thoughtfully sequenced by composer Adam Lastiwka. The outer sleeve boasts artwork by renowned illustrator Luke Preece, a regular collaborator on the Gears of War series, as well as with bands including Metallica, Black Sabbath, and many more. 

Lastiwka’s Gears of War: E-Day score emphasises the human struggle of Bravo Squad and the people of Sera, exploring the idea of preserving something beautiful while everything around you is being destroyed. The composer balances thrilling action with forlorn, reflective moments, and the scraping and snarling sounds of subterranean aggressors. 

Harkening back to the original Gears of War, snatches of unusual instrumental sounds emerge from the gloom, drenched in delay and reverb. Regular visits to The Home Depot became an integral part of the recording process for Lastiwka, as violent performances on custom and heavily modified instruments often ended in their destruction after a single take. 

Gears of War: E-Day is also the heaviest Gears soundtrack yet, with a specific focus on percussion and fusing orchestral elements with modern metal production techniques. Renowned drummer Luke Holland is behind the ferocious drum hits in “Command and Control”. 

All music has been specially mastered for vinyl by Joe Caithness.
