Best battle themes
What it says on the tin, what are some awesome RPG battle themes you've listened to over the years?
-
Are we talking standard battle themes only or any battle themes?
-
Any of them. Just try to keep your examples to a minimum if you're linking videos.

I'll post a few more later, but I've come to the realization that at Square, if you wanted a battle theme done right, you didn't ask Uematsu, you asked Kenji Ito.

Last Surprise and Take Over are really good in persona 5. There's nothing like hitting an All-Out Attack on "You'll never see it comiiiiiing!"
Ooh and the final final boss theme with Keep Your Faith yooooo!
And I do like the boss music in some of the fights in Kingdom hearts. I was trying to find the song, but it's hard navigating the ost for KHIII on YouTube.
