5.0 out of 5 stars Smooth, Refined, and Exciting, June 24, 2003

Despite the moody, gothic tones of the anime itself, this soundtrack has enough variability and interesting sounds to fit every mood; from throaty, jazzy affairs to darker, sinister works, as well as the oddly-placed light-hearted break here and there. This eclectic mixture perfectly compliments any collection of soundtracks, whether they be of anime or otherwise. In fact, one could say you don't even need to have seen the anime in question to enjoy these sounds; from the first track (the excellent opening theme), you may very well be hooked.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have, October 30, 2002

This review is from: Hellsing (Audio CD)

This is a great album that perfectly illustrates and fits the mood of the series. It has a smooth blues/jazz/rock sound that's really laid back and relaxing. Personally, I don't really care for blues, but I consider this soundtrack an exception. It's definently worth your money!! Despite it's genre, I ended up liking almost every track on it, and think that it's something that anyone would enjoy listening to. It's a must have for any Hellsing fan and I would rank it as one of my top 5 favorite anime soundtracks.

This review is from: Hellsing (Audio CD)

Hellsing's stunning visuals and neo-gothic storylines are well-complimented by this soundtrack, the first of two volumes of music from the bloody vampire series.

The disc offers a number of excellent tunes, from the outstanding opening theme to a number of other instrumental and vocal tracks that served as background music throughout the series. The music is often dark and foreboding, carrying well the atmosphere of the series over into audio media.

Note that the disc, though offered at domestic prices, is essentially the same as the import version from Japan, including (as evidenced by the cover photo above) the original art and Japanese-language case and liner notes--so for purists who want only the original Japanese soundtracks to anime, this disc will please at far less than the typical import price.
