With little more than a month left before the final film in The Hobbit trilogy hits screens, we are excited to debut the fabulous cover art for The Battle of the Five Armies special edition soundtrack courtesy of our good friends at WaterTower Music.
As with the special edition soundtracks previously released for An Unexpected Journey and The Desolation of Smaug, this is a 2-CD set (that will, presumably, contain additional music not available on the regular edition).
The album releases December 16, 2014 and is currently up for pre-order on Amazon.

It covers a number of markets (not just the USA and Canada): United Kingdom, France, Spain and Germany.
