Retroware, the irradiated indie developer and publisher behind the highly anticipated beat-’em-up Toxic Crusaders, recently announced that the game’s soundtrack is now available on vinyl via the Retroware online store.
Featuring face-melting tracks from metalcore band Psychostick, the Toxic Crusaders soundtrack brings the chaos of Tromaville to life with a mix of radioactive riffs and high-energy anthems. The vinyl release includes a curated selection of 36 of the game’s hardest-hitting tracks, pressed across two colored LPs and housed in a gatefold package with full interior artwork. Every track is crafted by Joshua Key and Psychostick, with additional contributions from Sam Beddoes of FreakZone Games. The release arrives ahead of the game’s upcoming launch, giving fans an early taste of the high-energy action to come from the upcoming brawler, which continues the story of the cult classic cartoon series.
In addition to the vinyl release, the full Toxic Crusaders soundtrack, featuring 57 tracks, is also available to stream on all major digital platforms. CD editions, also featuring the 36-track curated selection, are available for fans who prefer a physical format outside of vinyl.
