Certainly not what you'd expect from a series called Castlevania.

Certainly not what you'd expect from a series called Castlevania.

The Castlevania series has such a wonderful mishmash of different genres of music: baroque, techno, rock, progressive, jazz... it's awesome.

Hell Is Us has a mixture of ambient horror tracks that sound like Lustmørd's work, and some weird surreal synth tunes like these two.

The OST is in 4 volumes and each one is themed after the 4 weaponized emotions of the game (Grief/Terror/Rage/Ecstasy). Not every track hits (most that don't are cutscene scores instead of combat/explore music), but there's a pretty solid amount that have some unforgettable texture to them.

I lament how many of my favorite games have music that I struggle to even notice while it's blasting at me, like the Dark Souls series' boss tracks, but some of HIU's soundtrack is gonna be lodged in there forever alongside stuff like AoE2 and Diablo II.

I miss picking up wacky old PS2 era games and finding a soundtrack stuck randomly in the back. Anyways, Gungrave.

Curse of Darkness was the creative peak for both the music of the series as a whole and for Yamane herself as a composer imho
