With this epic loot, the soundtrack to the era-defining action game Last Epoch comes to life on a thick wax disc.
28 tracks chosen by composer Erik Desiderio have been specially mastered for vinyl and will be pressed on thick discs. These will be slipped into a deluxe double gatefold sleeve with artwork by the Eleventh Hour Games team.
Desiderio had to project himself forward in time to create the soundtrack for each of the game's four eras of Eterra, with the music on this album focusing primarily on the brighter Divine Era and the darker, apocalyptic Ruined Era. Most of the game's eras have a natural, acoustic sound, with more traditional instrumentation, while the Ruined Era focuses on distorted synthetic and acoustic sounds. During the game's Early Access period, the composer was able to gather feedback from fans, which helped shape the final score.
Some lesser-known instruments and techniques color the music. The sound of the lute helped capture the beauty of the world, while the tagelharpa, intense and rough, embodied the conflict of a war-torn land. In Ruined Era, the fretless bass guitar and expressive rainbow serve to create a sense of unease, the melodic material returning from earlier eras.
The choral lyrics are sung in Old Norse, particularly on the "Last Epoch Theme" with its moving refrain "Fyoern Oowled" (trans. "Ancient Era"). The singers are Ffion Elisa, Colm McGuiness, Mason Lieberman and Matt Lambert.
