Oh Geez! RICK AND MORTY Soundtrack Due In September: CD, Vinyl, Digital and Cassette Formats 

Rick&Morty OSTRICK AND MORTY is a critically acclaimed, half-hour animated hit comedy series on Adult Swim that follows a sociopathic genius scientist who drags his timid grandson on insanely dangerous adventures across the universe. Rick and Morty was recently renewed by Adult Swim for an unprecedented 70 episodes (the past season was ten episodes).

This release is the first official collection of music from RICK AND MORTY. All formats feature 26 songs, 24 of which are from the first 3 seasons of the show, and 18 of which were composed by Ryan Elder specifically for the show. The album also includes songs by Mazzy Star, Chaos Chaos, Blonde Redhead, and Belly, all of which have been featured in the show, as well as two new tunes from Chad VanGaalen and Clipping inspired by the show.

Ryan Elder’s Theme song and a variety of original and licensed songs will be released in virtually all media on September. The vinyl edition also includes some unique extras: a deluxe, double LP box set that will include “portal” colored vinyl housed in a box with an etched plexiglass window with LED lights which make the etching glow. The box also contains a custom poster, a patch, a sticker, and a bonus 7” single (featuring an extended mix of the screaming sun from the 2nd season finale.)

The album can be pre-ordered from Amazon
