何時もの梶浦節に、JAZZYな雰囲気が加わったテーマ曲が良い出来です。 battle of the shadowsは、梶浦サウンドの代名詞ともいうべき造語のコーラスが素晴らしい。その完成度の高さを改めて感じさせてくれます。 go and get it!、 have to get overは、どっしりとした金属質な音が、かっこええわ。 tensions are rising、the London Wall、why should we be apart? 、acting behind the scenesは、まど☆マギなどで聴かれるようなストリングスが癖になります。

Sound of Foggy London is the soundtrack for the anime Princess Principal, a steampunk spy thriller. I really liked the anime, but I’m a little disappointed with the soundtrack. When played as background music within the anime it works out very well. When extracted and stretched to 90-120sec per track, not so much.
The price is high, but that's to be expected — it’s a Japanese import. For that you get two discs, 43 tracks, almost 90minutes of music. The highlights were the ending song 'A Page of My Story', and Dorothy’s pub song, 'Moonlight Melody'. 'Page' comes in three versions: piano, piano-four hands, and as broadcast. 'Moonlight' also comes in three versions: piano, piano and violin, and as broadcast. もひとつまわして (I’ll take a turn) the girl’s washing song from Episode 7 appears once, in Japanese.
The one omission I noticed was the lack of a track for the ‘traveling music’ that plays when the girls are going somewhere in their car (e.g. at 16:48 in Episode 4).
The rest of the tracks are mostly various flavors of jazz — light, heavy, piano, etc — with the occasional orchestral interludes and screechy electronic music tracks, all by series composer Kajiura Yuki , so if you like her music, you would probably like this. Here’s a site (in Japanese) with 30sec sample clips.
Overall, the music (other than the highlights) was unmemorable, despite the fact that it fit well in the anime; a few tracks were unlistenable to these somewhat elderly ears. I figure I paid ~$10/min for the music I’d want to listen to in my car.
