Oh what a day, what a glorious day for a Nerdist exclusive. We have your first look at how Mutant will let you bring the soundtrack to George Miller’s epic new film, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, home on vinyl. And we can also tell you viewers won’t have to wait long to get a copy. It is going on sale at the same time the film drives into theaters.
The highly-anticipated prequel to Mad Max: Fury Road is finally here. As is its soundtrack. Mutant and WaterTower Music have teamed up for the first physical media release of composer Tom Holkenborg’s incredible Furiosa score. (And as someone who has already seen the film, I can attest “incredible” is actually an understatement.)
Pressed on two separate 140 gram Mutant Webstore exclusive Color Vinyl (one green, another a golden brown), the album will come in a stunning tri-fold jacket. It will also feature exclusive liner notes by Holkenborg and a package designed by Mo Shafeek. The gorgeous artwork on the jacket—both inside and out—will make this a collector’s item even for fans who don’t have a record player.
In a statement, Holkenborg talked about going back to the Wasteland. “My collaboration with the incredible George Miller began over a decade ago with our work on Mad Max: Fury Road, a project that marked a pivotal moment in my career as a film composer,” he said. “Returning to this world to score the odyssey of Furiosa, an epic tale of survival, resilience and revenge has been just as eye-opening and gratifying. Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is a testament to the vision of a singular film maker, whose pursuit of excellence always inspires me to push my creative limits.”
The vinyl will ($45) will go on sale at Mutant on Friday, May 24 at 1pm ET. The soundtrack will also be available as a CD ($16). You can find the full tracklist for both below.
And you can find us listening to it on repeat. That’s why we’re especially excited it will be available on vinyl. It’ll force us to listen to it at home and not behind the wheel where we might forget we’re not actually Furiosa driving down the Fury Road.
