I'm sitting here at work on a Friday, ready for the weekend, but the rest of the day is looming over me like a final boss. To fit the mood, I'm listening to all the great boss battle music I can get my hands on. A couple of tracks that come instantly to mind:
Super Mario RPG - Fight Against Smithy
Boss music can be over-the-top dramatic or gloomy sometimes, but not Smithy. Though he was tough as nails to beat as a kid, this music got me pumped to try again. Tons of determination. Speaking of determination...
Undertale - Megalovania
Undertale manages to evoke those same feelings in so many battles, it's really impossible for me to choose a favorite. They all evoke some sense of simultaneous excitement and desperation, which fit the fast-paced fights quite well.
Final Fantasy VIII - Force Your Way
A lot of people don't care for FF8 very much (I'm in the minority), but it's not all bad. Take this boss fight music, for instance! Lots of energy and urgency here, and not too much drama. Final Fantasy games do this particularly well when they aim to, and FF8 was no exception.
Anyway, enough about me. What are your favorite boss battle themes? Remixes, originals, doesn't matter. Let's hear 'em, and take down this Friday together!
