I have been trying to find out the name of the song that is playing when Heishiro Inukai, Shintarô Suzuki, and Tadasuke Kurosawa are running on the black soil in slow motion, its after they are on the beach and right before the two ask Heishiro if he is still a virgin, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Firstly, this is a great film. Forever unique. I purchased the original soundtrack and THIS piece at nineteen minutes(approximately)is not on it. The OST lists fifteen tracks. While there may be proprietary issues involved, it seems a shame that this thirty+ second track was not included. The visual of the boys running across black, volcanic sand accompanied by this music is unforgettable. The drum intro followed by bowed and plucked strings is awesome. On a side note, LoL pun not intended, I'd love to know the artist and track name played during the first swordplay when Kazamatsuri is defending the old dude and the young girl at eleven minutes into the film. Pink Floydish bass intro with a blistering guitar lead combined with a funky blues bass riff. Guitar reminds me of Pat Travers or Johnny Winter's style. All said, the OST offered is all Tomoyasu Hotei, so some copyrights may have prevented some bits to be excluded due to other artists' contracts etc. Sigh. Big sigh. Still searching. Peace...
Not sure if links are allowed, but here is the track list:
