Wow! OC ReMix had just recently given us the Zelda anniversary album25YEARLEGEND, and already the next album is out the door! Those guys are spoiling us with all this free music.
David "The Joker" Puga, known here on Dtoid as AKillingJoke, took the directorial reins for BadAss, a celebration of the true stars of videogamedom -- the villains. We've got dark, moody theme music for bad guys spanning all of game history, including Dr. Wily, Dracula, Vergil from Devil May Cry 3, Nightmare from Link's Awakening, Astaroth from Shadow Hearts: Covenant, and the muthaf*ckin' Shredder! There's mad representation from the Final Fantasy series, including a requisite death metal growl fest of "Otherworld" from FFX. The album is capped off by David's own ominous arrangement of King DeDeDe's theme.
You know what to do by now, folks! Hit the torrent and snatch this one up so that evil can triumph!

And before anyone mentions "OMG WHY NO SONIC?!" keep in mind there are some BAD ASS boss tracks on OC Remix's Project Chaos (S3&K) album. They probably figured they'd never be able to top those :P
Boss themes have always been among my favorite songs in some of my all time favorite games. If anyone can make these awesome, it's the OC guys; their songs are so good, I'd be willing to pay for them!
@Chad Almasy: You know we got that from a lot of places, & I agree, Project Chaos had some really friggin hardcore boss tracks. As of right now, Volume 2 looks like it'll have a remix of BioLizard from SA2.
@tekbunny: Mazedudes track is awesome! Totally hit me by surprise when he said he was gonna do a Saren mix inspired "Sinner's Prayer" by Sully Erna

@goofierBrute: Hope you enjoyed the album!
There's a Volume 2 in the works? Someone better put in "Falling Down" from Mega Man Zero 4. THAT'S an intense song.
Then you've probably heard river city rammstien by him; one of the finest pieces of vgremix goodness ever.
Dammit I think I suck...
