Reception

The liner notes split the album's authorship cleanly. Revo of Linked Horizon wrote, composed, arranged, produced, and sang the theme song. Sawano produced and composed the remaining four cues, with Yasushi Horiguchi of Legendoor co-producing and directing, Mitsunori Aizawa engineering the recording and mix, and Yuji Chinone mastering at Sony Music Studios Tokyo. Sessions took place at Studio Sound Valley and Bunkamura Studio.

The studio band featured Yu 'masshoi' Yamauchi on drums, Toshino Tanabe on bass, and Hiroshi Iimuro on guitars, while Sawano himself handled piano, keyboards, and every remaining instrument.
