Stylistically the battlefield versions are all the same: swirling strings and heavy brass arrangement with fast-paced percussion, with one of the sections playing the melody of the theme. Each theme has three incarnations, the first of which is the “Battlefield” version which appears during the regular stages of the game.

The lyrics for these themes are fragmented Japanese sentences that give hints of what goes on behind their personae. Each of the five antagonist sisters has their own theme: “Exvulsion” for Five, “Prevolt” for Four, “Corroscience” for Three, “Blissade” for Two, and “Companthem” for One. The game’s story revolves around six sisters who possess strong magical powers employed through song. Although the direction is considerably different than that of Nier and of the previous instalments, it is still has the dark and foreboding feel associated with the series, injected with a healthy dose of insanity. Like with Nier, a lot of the lyrics are nonsensical, present for tones and textures but not for conveying any literal meaning. Interestingly, the titles of songs (both in Japanese and in English) are for the most part not real words, but are new made-up compound words. The music team returned for the latest entry in the series Drakengard 3, aiming to create a soundtrack that fit in the series universe while offering a different experience from previous scores in the series. It received a spin-off title, Nier, with a soundtrack helmed by the MONACA team that was listed by many as their pick for Soundtrack of the Year. The Drakengard series (or Drag-on Dragoon as titled in Japanese) has been known for its interesting stories and music.
