House (pink Vinyl)
Waxwork Records is honored to release HOUSE Original Motion Picture Soundtrack! HOUSE, also known as HAUSU, is a 1977
experimental Japanese Horror film written and directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi. The plot follows a schoolgirl traveling
with her six friends to her ailing aunts country home where they come face to face with supernatural events as the girls
are, one by one, devoured by the home.
The soundtrack to HOUSE features original music by Asei Kobayashi, Mickie Yoshino, and Yoshinos Japanese rock band,
Godiego. The now classic soundtrack effectively lures you into a false sense of security. Beginning with upbeat
pop-sing-a-longs and jovial tracks such as "Buggie Boogie" and "Cherries Were Made For Eating", the soundtrack slowly
transforms into a dark sonic landscape of chaos and psychedelia. The second half of the soundtrack offers a juxtaposed
tone that sets the stage for dismemberment, man-eating pianos, flashing colors, hallucinatory visions, and gallons of
blood seen in the film.
In a successful attempt to attract younger audiences, Obayashi asked Yoshino to include tracks from his rock band
Godiego, which also makes a cameo in the movie. Fusing elements of funk, jazz, rock, and romantic ballads, the
soundtrack captures the absurd and whimsical nature that is HOUSE, contrasted with its experimental scenes of horror and
madness.
In celebration of the movies 45th Anniversary, Waxwork Records is thrilled to present HOUSE Original Motion Picture
Soundtrack officially for the first time outside of Japan and reissued for the first time since its 1977 debut.
