BEST UNDERTALE SOUNDTRACK
Considering that Toby Fox created the entire game himself, it’s no surprise that he would create the entire soundtrack himself as well. But it would probably come to few people’s attention of just how amazing this soundtrack is. Not only does it pay homage to the music of many older games, but it manages to reflect the emotion and story throughout the entire two-hour runtime. Almost every song has its own unique style and sound to it, like the entertainingly catchy “Bonetrousle”, or the hilarious “Temmie Village” (by far the soundtrack’s funniest song). Every song has its own tone as well, be it emotional, or dramatic or action-packed, or just downright silly, you’ll be constantly invested in what the soundtrack manages to deliver.
Undertale has become a modern marvel in the gaming community, and its soundtrack is one of the reasons as to why is has become such a landmark. Here, it pays incredible homage towards its influences and will certainly give many listeners nostalgia towards those once classic games. However, despite the immense amount of influences, the soundtrack itself never feels dated thanks to Toby Fox’s well executed songwriting and musicianship. Every emotion, character, and style is present in Undertale’s soundtrack and the result is arguably one of the best video game soundtracks created within the last fifteen years, maybe one of the best video game soundtracks of all time
