Panzer Dragoon Zwei OST available new

Just a heads-up that the once-rare Panzer Dragoon II Zwei soundtrack is currently available at Play-Asia.  Those interested can click on the order link on the album page to get your Panzer Dragoon goodness and show some STC love wink

I got my copy in the mail last weekend and though it's not up there with the classic Panzer Dragoon 1 and Azel scores, as a Panzer Dragoon fan I'm pretty stoked to have it.  "Forest of Taboo" and "Hanuman" are definitely my favorites, along with "Lagi and Lundi ~Theme of Zwei~" (which I would love to hear given the orchestral-choral treatment as in Azel and Orta's spectacular ending themes).

I love to this music so much and it always brings back memories of being really young and playing it. It was the both the first game of the series that I played and bought for my saturn.

Would definetly buy it if I didnt already have it due to buying from the fantastic forum member that is Zane. smile


I always like the "Taboo's Forest" too but also like the intro to "Ruins"/"An attack from Darkness". The sudden change in tempo for "Sea of ice" after a few seconds always made me remember being suprised the first time going through graveyard level.

I bought this through the forums here a while back and I have to say it is a great album. So glad my cousin had a Saturn back when it came out so I had a chance to play the game; would totally buy a Saturn today just for this game.

The other Panzer albums (Orta and SaGa) didn't have as great of an effect on me however.


I have no powers, I mean unless you count the ability to blow minds with my weapons-grade philosophical insights.

So is this a reprint or did they just somehow find a bunch of boxes of them somewhere (as I assume happened when gamemusic.com magically coughed up new copies of the Dracula X ost that one time way back when)?

It's the original print from 1996.  Who knows where they came from or how many are left.

If I remember correctly a few of these also showed up on otaku.com a while back, though for $65 a pop that was, well... The eBay seller champ_des_pins had some as well for around $35~40 at one point. So them showing up like this is not unheard of. Champ also had a few Rockman DASH soundtracks up at one point despite their age - glad I nabbed one.

Also, I wrote a review for this album a while back. It feels a little antiquated to some of the other reviews I've written but I can send it over if you want something for the album page Adam.

Definitely, send it on over!  I'd love to get more reviews for the site, especially for albums that don't have any.
