| Published
in conjuncture with the, then, soon to be released Godzilla
vs. Mothra (1992), this disc was more or less
the end all resource for Toho sound effects at the time.
Today, however, it's mostly overshadowed by the vastly
superior two disc Sound Effect of Godzilla release
by Toshiba that hit the market three years later. Howl
is not without its merits, though, as it does include
sound effects for the Heisei series kaiju up to 1992,
who are absent from Toshiba's set, while also containing
Kenji Iwakura's "Godzilla's Coming to Town"
single, which is a five minute piece of music set to Toho
sound effects. Sadly, at around 26 minutes, this disc
is still embarrassingly short of content. It's not clear
why this release didn't opt for either a more robust selection
of sound effects for each monster or include characters
absent from Howl, such as the Matango and the
Giant Octopus, to better pad the runtime.
