Top Ten Sonic Heroes Themes

Posted by II2none - June 24th, 2012


Sonic Heroes is either a love it or hate it game. And I of course am the former, the game is flawed, cheesy and can be fustruatiing at times especially team chaotix. But comin from a fan perspective, that is but a smidget on this otherwise great game, and the music is no exception. I often wonder if the music makes this game sometimes. Sonic Team has really fleshed out the cutscene and music timing here more so then in any of there previous games. Almost every level you go to contains an intro scene where the team discusses their objective and ends the conversation moving at a burst of speed when the song picks up. This is one of the reasons why the game has a special place in my heart and has some of the most memorable tracks in the entire series. So once agin here's the Top 10 Sonic Heroes themes.

10) Grand Metropolis

This track has a kick as future city feel and I especially love the bass bit that comes in in the first few seconds of the song. It gives off a nice serene, action combo but aside from being fitting to the second level in Heroes there's not much that stands out about this track compared to remaining 9. speaking of which.

9) Egg Hawk

Epic track makes for an epic boss battle The intro is iconic thanks to the intro set up in the actual game and how it flows together. And that drum beat gives a nice bounce to the song. It' could possibly get repetitive if the official ost lasted longer then 2 minutes but I'm glad this was the first boss theme introduced as the quality of each kept getting better with each boss encountered (excluding the team battles with team themes).

8) Sea Gate

Even though it's sounds like the concept theme for Seaside Hill most evident within first minute of the song. It was still well composed and in some ways sounds better then Seaside Hill. This is the typical upbeat vibe fans expect from a sonic game and represents the energy in pacing throughout most of the game.

7) Casino Park

This track is just Awesome and reinforced once again with a bit intro cut-scene of characters going with the pacing of the beginning of the track. I how chill and bouncy the techno is it's one of the songs that immediately comes to mind when I think of Sonic Heroes.This track like many others captures the spirit of having a great time, and thats what makes this theme so awesome.

6) Seaside Hill

The theme thats probably the most familiar to anyone who's played this game. Were it not for the theme song "Sonic Heroes" This would probably be it's alternative. As always Sega really knows how to make their music compliment the embodiments of there levels it's very iconic can't get any more "chillin on the beach" like then this theme.

5) Egg Emperor

One of the best boss themes in the game, unfortunately its heavily over shadowed by the REAL final boss theme but we'll get to that later (hint, hint). This track is great "boss ass kicking" music with high speed percussion and guitars.

4) Mystic Mansion

One of the most unique tracks I've ever heard. I love the how energetic it is at one minute and then calm the next. The powerful guitars and beats with retaining that haunting atmosphere is why this song earns the spot at number 4. Like a real haunted house itself you can't let your guard down listening to this song.

3) Hang Castle

As much as I've been boasting about hard beats and stuff, I never underestimate tracks that can capture an atmosphere without an insane guitar composition backing it up. While guitars and drums can make for an aswesome track but sometimes subtlety can make for a better one. The tame and steady beats the abstract vocals and that jingle throughout the first and last part of the song is just too awesome to pass up.

2) What I'm Made Of

One of the Greatest boss themes, period. This song is universally appropriate for almost any intense boss battle with a kickass instrumental awesome lyrics like "One by one they'll all become a black mark on the floor". Love the message , of taking down all obstacles and let nothing stand in your way. If you don't agree, then you could always try listen to this with a dirty mind.

1) Ocean Palace

As awesome "What I'm made of" is it ain't fuckin with Jun sunoue's guitar bit in the first minute of the song. Including I love how much energy is put into this track it's as if you can feel the emotion behind each string pulled each drum beat, this song just sounds so epic. When I was young I thought this was to "happy" to be worth Mp3ing, glad I got out of that hardcore only mentality because this song has thanked me dearly for it. It's number one on my Itunes playlist to this day.

So there you have it my top ten Sonic Heroes songs.
