The albums contain the original scores from all eight movies in the SAW series composed by Charlie Clouser. A physical and vinyl release is promised with no release date announced yet. In a posting on his Facebook page early last October, Clouser described the then-in-progress compilation: “I just finished editing it last night and it will be going to mastering tomorrow. Over two hours of my favorite bits from all eight movies, released on 2x CD / 4x vinyl LP – one vinyl side per movie,” [in addition to the newly-announced digital release].
