ギターが炸裂するオーケストラ・スコアは、サーフィッシュな犯罪ジャズやオカルト・ロックからボサノヴァ、古典的なスーパーヒーロー・モチーフ、そしてムソルグスキーの『禿山の一夜』（オリジナル版『悪魔の毒々モンスター』で使用）を狂気じみた解釈で再現??ゲップやオナラ、プラハ・フィルハーモニー管弦楽団の演奏まで完璧に再現している。さらにオリジナル楽曲も提供。画面に登場するゴス系悪党「キラー・ナッツ」によるニューラップ／スラップロックのヒット曲「(We Are) Crazy and Dangerous」、そのB面「My Baby is an Axe」、架空の50年代グループ「ザ・ウープシー・デューズ」による若い恋人たちへのドゥーワップ賛歌「The Good Things」などが収録されています。
Mutant, in partnership with Lakeshore Records and Legendary Entertainment, is proud to present The Toxic Avenger ? Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, featuring a wildly eclectic score and original songs by composers Brooke and Will Blair. In this unhinged reimagining of Lloyd Kaufman's cult classic, the brothers capture the chaos, the silliness, and the triumphant heart of the original Troma trilogy.
The guitar-drenched orchestral score careens from surfy crime-jazz and occult rock to Bossa Nova, classic superhero motifs, and an unhinged take on Mussorgsky's "Night on Bald Mountain" (featured in the original Toxic Avenger) ? complete with burps, farts, and the Prague Philharmonic. The pair also deliver original songs, including the nu-rap/slop-rock hit "(We Are) Crazy and Dangerous" from on-screen goth villains The Killer Nutz, their B-side "My Baby is an Axe," and the classic Doo Wop ode to young lovers "The Good Things" by fictional '50s group The Whoopsie Dews.
Over 120 musicians in eight countries contributed to the soundtrack, including Medirecon. A generator recorded this 16-piece Kyiv-based string ensemble after Russian forces cut power to the city's power grid during the early days of the occupation. The year-long composing effort resulted in a soundtrack that's as fun, messy, and moving as the Troma films that inspired it.
"The original Toxie soundtrack was such a bonkers mash-up of styles," says Will Blair. "Dancey-pop songs would be followed by punk rock, then go immediately into big orchestral pieces, followed by weird electro score ? and it not only worked, it became part of the Troma experience. We trusted it would work with Macon's version of Toxie, and we're grateful he cut us loose to throw everything we had at it." Written and directed by the Blairs' older brother, Macon Blair, and starring Peter Dinklage, Jacob Tremblay, Elijah Wood, and Kevin Bacon, The Toxic Avenger follows janitor Winston Gooze, who ? after a freak toxic accident ? mutates into an unlikely hero battling corporate overlords and corruption to save his son and his community.
The album also comes complete with liner notes by writer/director Macon Blair as well as composers Brooke Blair and Will Blair, and is pressed on 140gm toxic black and green vinyl with glow-in-the-dark splatter and housed inside a silver mirrorboard jacket with glow-in-the-dark elements.

『THE TOXIC AVENGER』のオリジナル・サウンドトラックがリリース！作曲家ブルック＆ウィル・ブレア兄弟による、驚くほど多彩なスコアとオリジナル楽曲が収録。ロイド・カウフマンのカルトクラシックを狂気じみた再解釈で描いた本作において、兄弟はオリジナル『トロマ』三部作の混沌、滑稽さ、そして勝利の精神を捉えています。
トラックリストギターが炸裂するオーケストラ・スコアは、サーフィッシュな犯罪ジャズやオカルト・ロックからボサノヴァ、古典的なスーパーヒーロー・モチーフ、そしてムソルグスキーの『禿山の一夜』（オリジナル版『悪魔の毒々モンスター』で使用）を狂気じみた解釈で再現??ゲップやオナラ、プラハ・フィルハーモニー管弦楽団の演奏まで完璧に再現している。さらにオリジナル楽曲も提供。画面に登場するゴス系悪党「キラー・ナッツ」によるニューラップ／スラップロックのヒット曲「(We Are) Crazy and Dangerous」、そのB面「My Baby is an Axe」、架空の50年代グループ「ザ・ウープシー・デューズ」による若い恋人たちへのドゥーワップ賛歌「The Good Things」などが収録されています。
8カ国120人以上のミュージシャンがサウンドトラック制作に参加し、メディレコンもその一員だ。占領初期にロシア軍がキエフの電力網を遮断した際、発電機で録音された16人編成の弦楽アンサンブルも収録されている。1年にわたる作曲作業の末、完成したサウンドトラックは、その原点となったトロマ映画さながらの、楽しくて混沌とし、そして感動的な作品となった。
「オリジナルのトクシー・サウンドトラックは、本当にクレイジーなスタイルの寄せ集めだった」とウィル・ブレアは語る。「ダンサブルなポップソングの次にパンクロックが流れ、すぐに大編成のオーケストラ曲へ移行し、奇妙なエレクトロ音楽が続く??それが見事に機能しただけでなく、トロマ体験の一部となったんだ。マコン版トキシでも通用すると確信していたし、彼に全力を注ぐ自由を与えてくれたことに感謝している」 マコン・ブレア（ブレア兄弟の兄）が脚本・監督を務め、ピーター・ディンクレイジ、ジェイコブ・トレンブレイ、イライジャ・ウッド、ケビン・ベーコンが出演する『トキシック・アベンジャー』は、清掃員ウィンストン・グーズが奇妙な毒物事故で変異し、企業支配者と腐敗と戦いながら息子とコミュニティを救うという、ありえないヒーローの物語だ。
本作のサウンドトラックには、脚本・監督マコン・ブレアと作曲家ブルック・ブレア、ウィル・ブレアによるライナーノーツを収録。140gのトクシック・ブラック＆グリーン・ヴァイナルに夜光スプラッター加工を施し、夜光要素を配したシルバーミラーボードジャケットに封入されています。
