Those who have been following OSV since it’s inception may recall one of our first posts about the Lord of Vermilion soundtrack.

Anyway, wappa at Dog Ear Records has announced that the soundtrack will finally go on sale on January 1, 2009 in Japan, and they’ve even launched an official website for the album complete with samples.
The Lord of Vermilion Original Soundtrack will feature 22 new compositons by Nobuo Uematsu, and the 7 samples seem to indicate they will mostly be adrenaline-pumping rock tracks with some catchy melodies.

Will you be picking up Lord of Vermilion in January? Do you think this full-on rock style suits Uematsu?
