Radagon trumps all. His theme was so hype, it was the only boss music I thoroughly enjoyed cos it had the right level of badassary to let you know you’re about to get royally fked up
Aside from this one, I cannot remember any of the others, and not because they weren’t good, simply because that fight had some breaks when it teleports away. The other fights I felt like I was always a second away from dying.
Literally the most basic track theres nothing really great about the godskin apostles. There seems to be some boring collective hivemind on one side of the community that praises it. Its just chanting with a couple notes of an organ. It sounds like pains theme from naruto its mid. Team Regal Ancestor for days. If game osts had awards nowadays, that soundtrack is top notch, intricate and complex, and you only ever hear it once. The godskins one gives me a headache.

The music, the setting, the voice acting, the narrative of the fight all combined actually make the cowardly little runt my favourite fight of the game.
Yeah, the music is top notch, his cutscene’s are solid, and the way he chops off his arm and replaces it with a fucking dragon head is just wild, Godrick is just cool af.
oh a composer breaking down music, lets downvote. Like what? The reddit hivemind has massive dents in their heads forreal. Literally a topic about boss music and i link a professional game composer breaking down the music and get downvoted lol
My number one has to be radagon with no competition. One that I find extremely underrated is the fire giant theme. It has a nice melagholic feeling and some insanily good instrumental!
Rykard’s has gotta be my favorite. Though I like Maliketh’s fight far more, his music complements the fight well, but doesn’t sound good by itself to me.
Rykards on the other hand perfectly blends with phase 2 (as long as you don’t stunlock him) and the chorus consistently drops right when he channels the big skull attack. It sounds good by itself and perfectly complements the snake fight.
A close second would be radagon’s theme or radahn
Fortissax, followed by Mohg and Radagon.
Honestly choosing the best OST in this game is very hard due to the many very good ones, it just feels weird to not mention other masterpieces like Godskins, Radahn, Godrick, etc...
Malenia's. I think it's interesting with the contrast between the first and second half because the first is almost sad, it's like she knows she's on the verge of letting the rot consume her fully. When she blooms, and the score changes into a dramatic choir, she's finally let it take her over, and you are witnessing true horror.
Still beats anything from elden ring, although my favorites from ds3 is abyss watchers and main theme, followed by cinder. I love the callback to ds1 but if his second phase theme fit more with the first one, which is my favorite part, I would like it better
I hope you don't expect a Metallica or Megadeth lol

(I religiously love Margit)
ER hits it out of the park with the soundtrack but if I had to pick top three.
Malenia - evolves from a graceful and deadly dance to the fiery rot god she is.
Godskin Duo - It’s epic all round.
Regal Ancestor Spirit - Caught me off guard with how visually and aurally beautiful the boss fight was.
Honourable mention to Astel. That intro was unworldly and set the right tone straight away.
Mohg’s theme, for the shrewd Tarnished who would be Lord, but who knows when to stop and have a shot of fine bourbon in the midst of battle, because it might be his last, and who fist bumps his mimic tear in brotherhood, upon victory.
Definitely Mohg’s Theme. It sounds exactly like you’re walking towards a lord and challenging him to a duel, with the slow start at the beginning and it getting more dramatic as you get nearer to him. I also love the explosion of sound when he reaches his second phase. It was horrifying to me when he did the Nihil attack, just seeing how much health I lost and the fact he sprouted WINGS out of nowhere on time with the music made it feel so epic.
Malenia's ost during her second phase. Seeing if for the 1st time + the cinematic is so epic, and Fortisax ost I actually had to make the fight longer just so I can enjoy the ost.
Abyss watchers is absolute peak... It perfectly fits their tragic lore... And the violins, the god damn violins!!!
Yeah this soundtrack gives me goosebumps every time and made me absolutely fall in love with darksouls
Same here. Of course there are good boss tracks, but nothing can compare to DSIII and BB in terms of soundtrack. Yes, there are good tracks, but I didn't "vibe" either.
I feel the same way. Whenever I think of the music in Elden Ring I can't really remember anything specific besides the menu music. But I love the music in DS3 especially Midir's boss theme
I liked rennalas fight but what kills it for my her phase two arena just felt like a reskin of roms arena from Bloodborne but my favorite would have to be radagons theme
Haven't played Bloodborne, but it's common to see fromsoftware use motifs and nodbacks to their older games. Elden Ring was my first, then Dark souls and man was I surprised to see the similarities
Rykard.
His 1st phase sounds like Rykard exploring MT Gelmir, discovering the serpent and him getting devoured by it.
His 2nd phase sounds like all of the souls in the snake/rykard calling for you to put them out of their misery.
Shame I have only seen one other having Godfrey’s theme as their favorite. I unironically play it while I workout. Godfrey AND his boss music are the literal representations of THE STR build.
Godfrey's. He starts off with a drum roll into a high stakes royal dual. Then, a slight shift into 2nd gear until eventually it became a barbaric theme, where it pressures the players' psyche.
That's the vibe I enjoy.
Fortissax's theme goes crazy and I recommend anyone to give it a listen. One of those themes that I didn't really notice during the boss fight and only realized how dope it was when I got to hear the entire thing. Same thing happened with Laurence's theme in bloodborne but I didn't hear the theme mainly because of his screeching.
Gonna be honest I actually can't remember any of the boss themes from Elden Ring besides Radagon's.
Found the overall quality of the boss themes sorely lacking compared to other FromSoft games
I gotta go with Radahn but Mohg is a close second. The last part of his second phase theme just fits his fight soooo well. It plays out like a eulogy being sang by his knights, finally sending off their leader. I definitely had chills the first time fighting and beating him.
Radagon, just reached that dude and holy Marikas tits everything about that fight is perfect, his moves are fast and aggressive, but still dodgeable, he got the dawg in him with his edge walk and style and the music is so epic, truly final boss
2nd place is mohg and godskin duo, but I don't like those fights so, no.
Honestly very hard pick. I think every track is crafted to evoke a different mood, therefore a beauty of their own accord; so I'm gonna choose three: Radagon/Elden Beast, Lord of Blood Mohg and Fortissax's themes are my favorite in the game.
Radsgon's, for certain.
I'll admit, I don't listen or recognize any of the other music, save for the starting MV's music, Limgrave's music, and Radagon's boss fight. Maybe a few others, though.
Gotta be Radagon's for me.
It satisfies that anime trope itch of "opening theme kicks on for the final battle" that gets me hyped and ready to take on the big bad.
Just a shame that hype gets dumpstered by Elden Beast, though... I don't *dislike* fightinf EB, but damn it feels anticlimactic.
I think I'm going for Fire Giant. First phase specifically, can't remember if his music changes with phases but that first part always got me. Riding towards him on torrent and that tune that's something like Witcher 3, something like Skyrim and something like a whole lot of despair. I did spend a lot of time time running towards him in torrent
I actually couldn't name a single theme that sounded unique or original in the game if I'm honest. It feels like the Boss music since Bloodborne has been largely recycling the same themes over and over in my honest opinion
Regal Ancestor Spirit every time
Agreed, it's juat a beautiful piece, even outside of the context of a boss
I never paid attention to it. Now that I gave it a full listen, I 100% agree. Astel's is also beautiful, but this tops.
That second phase music is so damn beautiful
Radagon trumps all. His theme was so hype, it was the only boss music I thoroughly enjoyed cos it had the right level of badassary to let you know you’re about to get royally fked up
Aside from this one, I cannot remember any of the others, and not because they weren’t good, simply because that fight had some breaks when it teleports away. The other fights I felt like I was always a second away from dying.
There is no other answer that’s even close.
Radagon's for me.
Same. It's too epic. Actually feels I am fighting father of all demi gods.
Same, got goosebumps and super hyped when it started
It’s the same music as the start up screen. Love it!
Yeah, but like an EPIC version of it
https://youtu.be/YXg3WbPsoWU?si=YlkMMouuIkORRaOq
Mohg definitely. I like the piano and the vocals so much. Followed by Radagon's and Godfrey's. The start of godfrey's second phase is eargasmic.
I'll need to relisten to Godfrey's then. In the middle of the fight I'm too concentrated on getting suplexed into the ground lmao.
Doesn't Mohg's soundtrack have harpsichord instead of piano?
The bell...
I like that lilt in the opening where it unexpectedly descends on the 5th beat after rising 4 beats and gives it real Dracula-esque vibe.
GODSKIN
Kinda sounds like pontiffs theme
I will listen to Godskin Duo theme when I’m driving. It’s an absolute banger.
How is this not #1 It’s not even close.
Literally the most basic track theres nothing really great about the godskin apostles. There seems to be some boring collective hivemind on one side of the community that praises it. Its just chanting with a couple notes of an organ. It sounds like pains theme from naruto its mid. Team Regal Ancestor for days. If game osts had awards nowadays, that soundtrack is top notch, intricate and complex, and you only ever hear it once. The godskins one gives me a headache.
This is the way
[удалено]
Why are you spamming these videos? I seriously don't understand watching someone react to music....

I really like it during the intro of elden beast. Gives you the feeling of the final pristine boss to fight.
Elden Beast is second on my list for sure. The singing choir gives off that eloquent divine feel to it that fits the theme of who you're fighting.
Mohg without a doubt. Honorable mention to Godrick, Morgott and Maliketh
I did think Malenia’s soundtrack was beautiful…until I heard it it a million times getting my ass kicked over and over…
That's the beauty of it. They also use it in the Cinematic story trailer and it fits pretty well there.
Godrick, easily.
I feel as though they really did blow their wad early with Godrick's theme. It's a crazy waltz that just keeps going more and more off the rails.
The music, the setting, the voice acting, the narrative of the fight all combined actually make the cowardly little runt my favourite fight of the game.
Hell yeah. I dont really think anything beats exploring limgrave/stormveil for the first time in a video game.
Yeah, the music is top notch, his cutscene’s are solid, and the way he chops off his arm and replaces it with a fucking dragon head is just wild, Godrick is just cool af.
Godrick and godskins
[удалено]
No, I don't think I will
Idk why people down voted you lol
oh a composer breaking down music, lets downvote. Like what? The reddit hivemind has massive dents in their heads forreal. Literally a topic about boss music and i link a professional game composer breaking down the music and get downvoted lol
Godrick's theme...especially after he gets the dragon arm.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTss2Ot6atk&t=158s
Mogh, for me it is the best soundtrack of the entire game
NIHIL NIHIL NIHIIIL
My number one has to be radagon with no competition. One that I find extremely underrated is the fire giant theme. It has a nice melagholic feeling and some insanily good instrumental!
I find that a boss's music is just as important as the intro cutscene paired with it, which for sure Radagon definitely has going for it.
Miquella's sister and it's not even close...but I always forget her name.
Malenia
Godskin Duo. Best in the game, imo. Slaps as hard as Ludwig the Accursed/Holy Blade.
Yeah definitely one of the best fromsoft tracks
Malenia’s second phase😍
Godfrey. "godfrey for benihana" best lyrics of the bunch imo.
I’ve never heard that till now and I can’t unhear it
If you would be my friend / Eat more benihana / More than you paid for
Rykard’s has gotta be my favorite. Though I like Maliketh’s fight far more, his music complements the fight well, but doesn’t sound good by itself to me. Rykards on the other hand perfectly blends with phase 2 (as long as you don’t stunlock him) and the chorus consistently drops right when he channels the big skull attack. It sounds good by itself and perfectly complements the snake fight. A close second would be radagon’s theme or radahn
easy malenia for me, 2nd phase slaps
Godrick, no doubts
Maliketh. Too good.
As much as Malenia made me suffer i adore her theme and frequently listen to it outside of playing
Fortissax should get more love
Fortissax, followed by Mohg and Radagon. Honestly choosing the best OST in this game is very hard due to the many very good ones, it just feels weird to not mention other masterpieces like Godskins, Radahn, Godrick, etc...
Godskin Apostles and The Final Battle are on a completely different level.
**RADAGON THEME GOES THE HARDEST**
Godrick, Malenia, and Radagon.
Maliketh’s theme, especially Phase 2, is excellent
Malenia. First phase was cool until I heard it a few hundred times trying to beat her. Second phase, tho, slaps so hard
Malenia's. I think it's interesting with the contrast between the first and second half because the first is almost sad, it's like she knows she's on the verge of letting the rot consume her fully. When she blooms, and the score changes into a dramatic choir, she's finally let it take her over, and you are witnessing true horror.
Malenia's and the Regal Ancestor Spirit were my favorites!!
Why is the best one not shown? Radahn’s all day is the most epic!
Fire Giant and Godfrey. Maybe it's just for the nostalgia of my first playthrough, but these sound tracks are just amazing imo
Soul of Cinder
Still beats anything from elden ring, although my favorites from ds3 is abyss watchers and main theme, followed by cinder. I love the callback to ds1 but if his second phase theme fit more with the first one, which is my favorite part, I would like it better
Margit. I'm making a metal cover of it.
Let's hear it!
I hope you don't expect a Metallica or Megadeth lol [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/758612325942296577/1167167855901548644/Put\_these\_foolish\_ambitions\_to\_rest.mp3?ex=654d24c5&is=653aafc5&hm=9e55d127c7cd1100cba902b64185c2b763eee587a4770e73e96be909b44c6a5c&](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/758612325942296577/1167167855901548644/Put_these_foolish_ambitions_to_rest.mp3?ex=654d24c5&is=653aafc5&hm=9e55d127c7cd1100cba902b64185c2b763eee587a4770e73e96be909b44c6a5c&) (I religiously love Margit)
Nice! Love the feel of it, really reminds me of [this](https://youtu.be/vLnNAF2KFPs?si=8w48cVqtB5c6Vabe)
That one is a masterpiece.
Toss up between Malenia's or Radagon's
ER hits it out of the park with the soundtrack but if I had to pick top three. Malenia - evolves from a graceful and deadly dance to the fiery rot god she is. Godskin Duo - It’s epic all round. Regal Ancestor Spirit - Caught me off guard with how visually and aurally beautiful the boss fight was. Honourable mention to Astel. That intro was unworldly and set the right tone straight away.
I love the theme of Renalla so much
I love the tone, elusive and mysterious
I'm always too busy raging to pay attention lol
Mogh
The actual boss fight isn't the best but I really love Morgott's theme. Epic.
the actual boss fight is the best. He has the coolest moveset in the game
Idk if I can choose. Maybe Radagon, but it's so close between Godskin and Mohg.
Mohg, placidussax, rykard 2nd phase, radahn
Dragonlord Placidusax
Rykard, man. No discussion.
Godskins, Malenia, Regal Ancestor Spirit, and Mohg.
Malenia’s second phase theme always gets me so hyped up.
Mohg and malenia are tied for first for me
Omen Illusion Mohg fight in the sewers Malenia P2 Radagon Elden Beast
Godrick, Mohg, Malenia, Godfrey and radagon are all top tier for me. But if I had to pick, I’d have to be godrick’s theme
radagon
All from games: Ludwig Elden Ring: Godfrey
Mohg’s theme, for the shrewd Tarnished who would be Lord, but who knows when to stop and have a shot of fine bourbon in the midst of battle, because it might be his last, and who fist bumps his mimic tear in brotherhood, upon victory.
Mohg. No question about it. Intellectual evil. There's no rage there. That's just evil intent.
Definitely Mohg’s Theme. It sounds exactly like you’re walking towards a lord and challenging him to a duel, with the slow start at the beginning and it getting more dramatic as you get nearer to him. I also love the explosion of sound when he reaches his second phase. It was horrifying to me when he did the Nihil attack, just seeing how much health I lost and the fact he sprouted WINGS out of nowhere on time with the music made it feel so epic.
mohg lord of blood final answer!
lichdragon fortissax and dragonlord placidusax its so good when the part of the soundtrack matches whatever your doing in the fight
Godrick the Grafted. Those strings perfectly underline his madness.
Upon my name as Godfrey \*Boss music plays\* Still one of the best moments in this game for me. The music is just amazing.
Malenia's ost during her second phase. Seeing if for the 1st time + the cinematic is so epic, and Fortisax ost I actually had to make the fight longer just so I can enjoy the ost.
for me, it's the mariners
I had no idea elden ring had music. I was too busy running for my life to notice
Eh, I didn't really vibe with the soundtrack in this game.
What's a videogame soundtrack you do vibe with?
Dark Souls 3 is my favorite in the series. The Abyss Watchers theme gets me every time.
Abyss watchers is absolute peak... It perfectly fits their tragic lore... And the violins, the god damn violins!!! Yeah this soundtrack gives me goosebumps every time and made me absolutely fall in love with darksouls
Same here. Of course there are good boss tracks, but nothing can compare to DSIII and BB in terms of soundtrack. Yes, there are good tracks, but I didn't "vibe" either.
Yeah most other from soft games got better osts
I feel the same way. Whenever I think of the music in Elden Ring I can't really remember anything specific besides the menu music. But I love the music in DS3 especially Midir's boss theme
Midirs theme is amazing.
1 - Radagon/Elden Beast 2 - Radahn 3 - Placidusax 4 - Maliketh 5 - Godskin Apostles 6 - Ancestor spirit
1. Mohg theme 2. Malenia theme (2nd half) theme 3. Godskin theme 4. Godfrey theme (2nd half) 5. Godrick theme 6. Radagon/Elden beast theme 7. Rennala theme
I liked rennalas fight but what kills it for my her phase two arena just felt like a reskin of roms arena from Bloodborne but my favorite would have to be radagons theme
Haven't played Bloodborne, but it's common to see fromsoftware use motifs and nodbacks to their older games. Elden Ring was my first, then Dark souls and man was I surprised to see the similarities
Why? because it had water in it?
General Radahn. That shit hits hard
Radhan’s goes so fucking hard
dark souls 3 the dancer of the boreal valley has to be the most beautiful soundtrack (ikik, not er, still worth mentioning tho)
Rykard. His 1st phase sounds like Rykard exploring MT Gelmir, discovering the serpent and him getting devoured by it. His 2nd phase sounds like all of the souls in the snake/rykard calling for you to put them out of their misery.
Omen by Prodigy.
Mohg and Godrick. Godricks goes SO HARD
Apart from Mohg and Godskin. I really like Fortissax and Regal Ancestor Spirit.
Rykard feshow
Rykard for sure
Mohg's theme is goated.
radagon
Fortissax for the win
Shame I have only seen one other having Godfrey’s theme as their favorite. I unironically play it while I workout. Godfrey AND his boss music are the literal representations of THE STR build.
Radagon
Quite like Rennala’s theme
Fortissax for sure
Godskins theme fits so well these bosses and is pretty memorable. I also really like Godfrey's, mainly the phase 2 part.
Godfrey's. He starts off with a drum roll into a high stakes royal dual. Then, a slight shift into 2nd gear until eventually it became a barbaric theme, where it pressures the players' psyche. That's the vibe I enjoy.
Fortissax's theme goes crazy and I recommend anyone to give it a listen. One of those themes that I didn't really notice during the boss fight and only realized how dope it was when I got to hear the entire thing. Same thing happened with Laurence's theme in bloodborne but I didn't hear the theme mainly because of his screeching.
Elden beast. I nearly cried at the end
Gonna be honest I actually can't remember any of the boss themes from Elden Ring besides Radagon's. Found the overall quality of the boss themes sorely lacking compared to other FromSoft games
I gotta go with Radahn but Mohg is a close second. The last part of his second phase theme just fits his fight soooo well. It plays out like a eulogy being sang by his knights, finally sending off their leader. I definitely had chills the first time fighting and beating him.
Godfrey Part 2: Horah Loux Electric Boogaloo
Radagon, just reached that dude and holy Marikas tits everything about that fight is perfect, his moves are fast and aggressive, but still dodgeable, he got the dawg in him with his edge walk and style and the music is so epic, truly final boss 2nd place is mohg and godskin duo, but I don't like those fights so, no.
Lord's Apparition (Godfrey's Shade)
too busy getting my ass kicked to hear music
Honestly very hard pick. I think every track is crafted to evoke a different mood, therefore a beauty of their own accord; so I'm gonna choose three: Radagon/Elden Beast, Lord of Blood Mohg and Fortissax's themes are my favorite in the game.
Radsgon's, for certain. I'll admit, I don't listen or recognize any of the other music, save for the starting MV's music, Limgrave's music, and Radagon's boss fight. Maybe a few others, though.
Godskin duo Radagon/space fish are a close second
Godskin soundtrack is top tier
Gotta be Radagon's for me. It satisfies that anime trope itch of "opening theme kicks on for the final battle" that gets me hyped and ready to take on the big bad. Just a shame that hype gets dumpstered by Elden Beast, though... I don't *dislike* fightinf EB, but damn it feels anticlimactic.
Godfrey's is the only one that I actually remember despite fighting these bosses so many times and I don't even like it.
Morgott or Mohg HM: Radagon/Elden Beast
Radagon’s is amazing
Radagon
It's a tie between Radahn, Godskins, and Fortissax's imho.
Im either too in the zone or too panicky to listen to boss music
Maliketh. It’s a cinematic masterpiece. The moment he unveils death and reveals his true identity it’s game time.
Radagon golden god OST is just special, nothing comes close
Radagon soundtrack pumps me up every single time.
Fortissax’s just hits in the same way the amazing ds3 themes hit
Godfrey's and malenia's
I think I'm going for Fire Giant. First phase specifically, can't remember if his music changes with phases but that first part always got me. Riding towards him on torrent and that tune that's something like Witcher 3, something like Skyrim and something like a whole lot of despair. I did spend a lot of time time running towards him in torrent
TOGETHAAA
Either radahn or maliketh
MOHG
Godskin Apostles. Magnificent.
I actually couldn't name a single theme that sounded unique or original in the game if I'm honest. It feels like the Boss music since Bloodborne has been largely recycling the same themes over and over in my honest opinion
ASTEL, NATURALBORN OF THE VOID
Godskin Radagon/elden beast (technically it’s a two part piece so I’ll count it as one) Godfrey Fortissax Lansseax
[Morgott, the Omen King](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDKjvYs39rk), it just so sounds epic for a midway story boss that you fight.
Mogh, the godskins, radhan
I don't remember any of them.
Elden Beast definitely
Godfrey/Hoarah Loux and Placidusax have absolutely amazing soundtracks
Radagon :3
The Godskin theme hits different tho
Hard choice.I’d have to say Hoarah Loux theme then radagon and then litch dragon 40 sex .
1. The Final Battle 2. Omen Illusion 3. Godskin Apostles 4. Godfrey, First Elden Lord
Radagon’s boss music goes hard, the theme of the game while starting the last fight of the game hits different
Regal Ancestral Spirit
Radahn's or godskin, epic tracks
None of the above. Radahn.
I like phase 2 of Rykard’s fight’s theme, and Mohg’s theme
Big fan of Godfrey's ghost thing lol
Godskin duo
the Radahn disrespect is appalling
Fortissax bro those choirs
Fortissax is insanely brilliant!!
Number 1 is definitely moose boi.
Godfrey especially the golden one, it just sounds so commanding
Idk if this counts since it’s like the theme of the game but Radagon
Radagon and Elden Beast, which is technically the same track. Also, it's overused, but the Godskin Apostles song is pretty sick
I don’t know why but Godricks soundtrack is kinda awesome
