Gojira tai Mosura tai Mekagojira: Tokyo S.O.S. - Michru Oshima

The 28th Godzilla Film (If you count the non-TOHO American version) which I don't so we'll call it the 27th Godzilla film :) Released in Japan in 2003 under the name of "Gojira tai Mosura tai Mekagojira: Tokyo S.O.S." or "Godzilla vs. Mothra vs. Mechagodzilla: Tokyo S.O.S." and otherwise know as the short international title "Godzilla - Tokyo S.O.S".

This is another massive orchestral effort by Michiru Oshima - added to the previous offering, you can start to get a good understanding why she is considered the best modern Godzilla composer - embuing emotion as well as adventure in her scoring. (If only David Arnold had shown some of that range in his disappointing attempt at the Godzilla franchise - but then, that could be rested on the shoulders of the director in that instance I think)

You'll hear some similarities to her score for the Fullmetal Alchemist film here. There are also some more Godzilla SFX to finish off the disk (always good for a ringtone)

This is my own rip (just made today at 320kbps of the Japanese CD)
