Your Hypest Boss Battle Theme Music?

[Pinballbuzzbro]

Neither one compares to the original arcade game's boss theme IMO

 

[Sunnyside]

This plays in every boss battle in an RPG that has a boss literally every half hour. No joke. By far the highest boss density in a JRPG I've ever seen. Walk two steps, boss fight. But the song is so over the top cheesy you can't help but love it. Yes that is Ian Gillian from Deep Purple singing the vocals.

Here's my top 5 (in no particular order)

 

[Scotty Scotty]

I've got lots of favorites. But at the top of my head, I really like "Magical Quest 3's" main boss theme.

[Zerohour2k12]

Some of my faves.

One of my favourite boss songs of all times is surprisingly from FFXIII, a game I consider mediocre but with an amazing OST:

 

[JG5009]

Cant forget good ol messiah of destruction in here. Mythos version for more power.

and THE:

 

[Sheepy765]

The theme that plays when you fight Saturos is an all time classic and never fails to get me pumped.

I don't know why The Lost Age's boss theme sounds so dire and desperate when half the time the bosses aren't that hard but I love it all the same.

Technically the eclipse battle theme in Dark Dawn is more a theme for fighting the eclipse enemies in general but they're super strong and sort of boss-like.

And two curly fries because variety is the spice of life.

I can't believe the thread got this far without Metal Gear Rising getting a look in.

That aside, the final boss music from Persona 1 gets a shoutout from me. Just the general vibe of darkness that it conveys is really memorable after the journey you go through in the game.

Ace Combat and its top-tier music.

non stop headbanging - ALL BOSSES THEME music

 

[dr grim]

These 3

Sonic 3 - Knuckles big arms theme ( 3ds version )

Magus fight - Chrono trigger.

Phantasy Star 4 - Laughter ( ZIo bossfight )

this one is more for the boss itself, man it was something else the first time you face him.
