Awesome Music / Everhood

Go To

Everhood has a ton of great tracks, befitting of a Rhythm Game where every battle has its own unique song:

  • Tinnitus Dance, Zigg's fight theme. A dance track with a pumping beat that starts slow but quickly picks up the speed. It gets even more intense once the namesake tinnitus-like music starts, which is also when Zigg breaks out their Eye Beams.
  • You Want Gnomes, the theme to the first fight against the Gnomes and the Wham Episode that ends the first section of the game, is exactly as confusing and chaotic as the boss fight.
  • Fight Song, the theme for the sparring session against Rasta Beast within the Dungeons & Dragons-like tabletop game. It sounds like an intense, action-packed old-school RPG battle theme, fitting for the current setting.
  • Demondelic Inc., Purple Mage's theme, mixes ethereal synths with a throbbing bass for a track that really stands out.
  • Ballistic, the theme for Gold Pig's battle, contains grimy-sounding electric guitars and foreboding, pounding drums that combine for an intimidating sound suited for someone as imposing as Gold Pig.
  • Feisty Flowers, the theme to the Flower Shopkeeper, catches a lot of people off guard for just how unexpectedly catchy it is. Special mention goes to the sections during the fight where the background turns psychedelic, as the beat turns extra lively and catchy.
  • Powers of Destruction, the theme for the Hand Cursor, is a fast, hectic and rocking music that's fits the boss' intense movements and attacks.
  • The Final Battle, the final battle theme for Green Mage, is a playful yet menacing sendoff to someone who is considered to be one of the best characters in the game.
  • Wrath of God, the theme for Rasta Beast's real battle, has an overall dire sound to it, and conveys a sense of feeling betrayed, undoubtedly the same way Rasta Beast feels having to fight Red.
  • Why Oh You Are LOVE is the music that plays when you fight the Light Being. It's unique not only in its insane BPM (perfectly accompanying Light Being's erratic movements), but also for being the only song in the game to contain lyrics.
  • Revenge, the battle theme of Frog at the end of a Pacifist Run, is the game's spiritual equivalent to Undertale's Megalovania, and a fast, hectic reprise of "Frogs Are Friends", perfectly capturing Frog's wrath towards the player in the brutally difficult fight they put up.
  • All of the themes that play during the final act of the game are just as epic:
    • Heavy, the theme for the battle against the white rabbit / Sun, is as every bit as epic as a space-based final boss theme could be.
    • Reconciliation follows that up with some heart-pounding music as those who Red had killed get a chance to share their feelings regarding how their lives were cut short, before it takes a sudden 180 degree turn at the end when Pink bursts out of Red.
    • And then there's Euthanasia Rollercoaster, in which Pink ends up having to fight the entire Everhood Universe. Most notable is the mid-song fake ending fake-out, which makes you think the song is over, only for the Universe to declare that no, it won't end like this, before kicking into one final battle where the music starts to glitch out the closer the Universe is to death.
    • Finally, there's Farewell Battle (and the Farewell Loop), which plays during the Post-Final Boss battle, which is a great celebration of the game as a whole.
  • Souvenir de La Boum Avec Sophie Marceau, the track that plays during both the Masterpiece and the Cat God fights. While the theme is abruptly cut off for the former, it plays in its full glory for the latter, as a fast-paced dance track with tense buildup followed by an intense rhythm accompanied by a bell-like chime.
