Shin Godzilla Music By Shiro Sagisu & Akira Ifukube

Shin Godzilla[5] (シン・ゴジラ Shin Gojira?, also known as Godzilla Resurgence) is a 2016 Japanese science fiction kaiju film featuring Godzilla, produced and distributed by Toho. It is the 31st film in the Godzilla franchise, the 29th Godzilla film produced by Toho, and Toho’s third reboot of the franchise. The film is co-directed by Hideaki Anno and Shinji Higuchi, with a screenplay by Anno and visual effects by Higuchi and stars Hiroki Hasegawa, Yutaka Takenouchi, and Satomi Ishihara and reimagines Godzilla’s origins where he emerges in modern Japan for the first time.

The film’s score is composed by Shiro Sagisu, who also scored Anno’s Neon Genesis Evangelion and Higuchi’s Attack on Titan. There are also various remixes of “Decisive Battle” from Sagisu’s Neon Genesis Evangelion score. The film also includes several pieces from previous Godzilla films composed by Akira Ifukube. Anno had decided to use Ifukube’s music while writing the screenplay and attempted to adapt the old Ifukube tracks to modern stereo settings but the task proved too daunting and eventually settled on using the mono mixes instead.
Funimation is releasing Shin Godzilla in theaters from October 11 to October 18.
