The music fits the action superbly and after you play the game [for those of you that have the OST but have yet to play the game] you will see just how aptly fitting the music truly is.

Anyone that knows video games has heard or thinks that "One-Winged Angel" from Final Fantasy VII is the best boss theme ever written; or one of them at least. Well, I am here to tell you that ANY of the boss themes in Bayonetta blow that song out of the water. Bayonetta has the best boss themes I have ever heard - the production values on most of these songs is staggering - full orchestra, real choirs, heart and soul and deep thought went into these tracks - all of them.

There are also plenty of homage's in here to boot. Kamiya-san is most definitely a classic gamer; as is evident by the game and the accompanying songs in some of the stages [I won't spoil them here, but rest assured you will be smiling when you hear them and see what game situations they accompany]. There are even NES-style remixes of the Bayonetta main themes ["chip-tune" like on the Okami soundtrack] on Disc 5. Great stuff!

Most people wouldn't get this, but track 15 on Disc 3 is an absolute homage to the end titles from the movie "Blade Runner". I was floored while playing the game when I heard it and I was floored again when I got the OST and was able to hear it without all the game sounds - a truly remarkable track that literally made my jaw drop.

Yes, some of the themes are reminiscent of MGS3 - another game in which Norihiko Hibino crafted some of his amazing audio bliss for the gameplay and cut-scene music - but that only made me love it more, since I love his work on the audio side of the Metal Gear series. Bass tones are matched evenly with perfect melodies, guitar riffs and choir/vocals - I was amazed. Bayonetta's soundtrack tops the entire Devil May Cry series in one fell-swoop.

Overall: 11/10

When you play the game, you will love this soundtrack even more than you do if you own it already. Seeing where the music falls into place during the game only heightens the experience. A truly remarkable audio feat. A must-have for any Bayonetta or action game fan.

The bottom line is that Bayonetta is far more intense and stylish than Dante and the Devil May Cry games - far moredifficult and rewarding than Ninja Gaiden 1&2 or all the GOW games and on par with only itself. I don't want a sequel to Bayonetta and I only wish that this game stands on it's own against time as the best action game ever created. It doesn't need a sequel - you will understand that after you have completed your first play-through of the game. Greatness and perfection don't need another attempt or a sequel.

To sum all this up - Bayonetta is so awesome, that even Chuck Norris would sweat while playing it - and then wear Bayonetta pajamas to bed afterward.
