A huge hit in Hong Kong, Japan, and around the world, "Twilight Warriors: Battle! Kowloon Walled City" was selected as Hong Kong's entry for the Best International Feature Film at the 97th Academy Awards and continues to enjoy long runs across the globe. The soundtrack is now available on vinyl for the first time in Japan, ahead of the rest of the world. The music, which depicts the protagonists' lives and friendships with sometimes passionate and sometimes heartbreaking energy, was composed by master Kenji Kawai, known for a string of renowned scores not only in Japan but across Asia. Newly remastered for vinyl, the album features a selection of tracks personally selected by Kawai himself, bringing to life one memorable scene after another, leading up to the 20-minute final battle. Listen to the soundtrack without the visuals to discover a different side of Kowloon Walled City!

The booklet includes a liner note by Kenji Kawai and an interview with action director Kenji Tanigaki. The original jacket design, based on the theme "What if this film had been released in Japan during the time period depicted in the film?", was created by film director Shinji Higuchi!
