"Mad Mode" sets the pace immediately, all distorted kicks and manic synth lines. "Dance Macabre" and "Rave to the Grave" wear their death-party themes on their sleeves, mixing dancefloor energy with this underlying sense of dread.
"Everybody Needs 303 Legs" is a title that could only come from this game, and the acid bassline delivers exactly what it promises. "Green Green Goo" has this squelchy, toxic bounce to it. "Hail to the Boss" closes things out with the kind of bombastic energy that a final encounter deserves.
"Robot Attack" and "Impact Drill" keep the mechanical side of the game's aesthetic locked in tight. Ten tracks of pure adrenaline fuel for watching your disposable army get shredded.
