If you’re like me, you probably had no idea what Impetuth was, but were interested in it solely based on Shinji Hosoe’s involvement. As it turns out, the game is a retro-styled indie vertical shooter with a fantasy setting that looks absolutely amazing, and as you can imagine, the soundtrack is pretty good too.
Shinji Hosoe isn’t the only composer involved, however, as Shoichiro Sakamoto actually handles the majority of the score. While I admit that Hosoe’s tracks are probably my favorite, I can’t deny that Sakmoto’s contributions are also great, and the bottom line is that neither of the two will disappoint you when you consider that this album is only $5!
