* The theme for [[TrueFinalBoss the boss of]] [[BonusLevelOfHeaven The Cathedral]] (and by extension, [[TheVeryDefinitelyFinalDungeon The Chest]]), the absolutely ''majestic'' BossRemix of the main theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4noeZx9W6s "My Innermost Apocalypse"]].



* The music that plays in Sheol, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zKXD01QRvE "A Mourner Unto Sheol"]], is incredibly eerie and foreboding, to the point where it's arguably creepier than Rebirth's version... yet some parts are oddly soothing, to a point. It certainly shows that Sheol is cold, bleak, and empty. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBf83ozemSo Lament of the Angel]], a holy rearrangement of "A Mourner Unto Sheol", counterbalancing the hellish Sheol itself with [[spoiler:the Cathedral]].

It's an awesome remix of Genesis, played backwards with additional instrumentation added in the further you go, plays throughout.
