History AwesomeMusic / KillLaKill

''Anime/KillLaKill'', coming from the same creators as ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'', contains a praise-worthy soundtrack, with no less than four credits songs and a score composed by Music/HiroyukiSawano.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_PWdjym25g "Before My Body Is Dry"]], a dynamic rock ballad which features lyrics that explicitly state [[TheHero Ryuko]] and Senketsu's motivations. It's hard to not cheer for her as this track plays while [[ThemeMusicPowerUp she puts on]] [[EmpathicWeapon Senketsu]] [[Awesome/KillLaKill to kick some serious ass]].

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LhG3AV14ec "Till I Die"]] and its remix, [[https://soundcloud.com/cheezitzrice/till-i-die-nzk-ver "Till I Die (:[nZk] ver.)"]] (sung by CASG). This song was used to great effect in the lead up montage to the graduation ceremony of Episode 25.

* The opening credits for Episodes 1-15 use Aoi Eir's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2IwwyJUerk "Sirius"]], while the ending credits use Miku Sawai's [[https://soundcloud.com/gemafrx/gomen-ne-iiko-ja-irarenai-miku "Gomen ne, Iiko ja Irarenai"]] [[note]](ごめんね、いいコじゃいられない。?, "Sorry, I'm Done Being a Good Kid")[[/note]].
* Episode 16 and onwards uses [=GARNiDELiA=]'s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K42ED-7PWAo "ambiguous"]] as its opening credits, while [[http://www.jpopsuki.tv/video/Sayonara-Ponytail---Shin-Sekai-Koukyougaku/c48bf87fbfdef48c268191ca5459ba82 "Shin Sekai Koukyougaku"]] [[note]]新世界交響楽 New World Symphony[[/note]] by Sayonara Ponytail is used as the ending credits.

** The Rearrange & Remix soundtrack gives us [[https://soundcloud.com/cheezitzrice/before-my-body-is-dry-nzk-v "Before my body is dry (:[nZk] ver.)"]].

* [[https://soundcloud.com/cheezitzrice/gorilla-l "goriLLAjaL"]], which can be divided into two halves:
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nckqVPSejk The first half]] is used as [[PrinciplesZealot Ira Gamagoori]]'s {{Leitmotif}}, featuring angry guitars, pounding percussion, panic-inducing synth riffs, and (oddly) Arabic-sounding wailing.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiefOJ1Li8c The second half]] serves as [[ElegantGothicLolita Nonon Jakuzure]]'s. Appropriately enough for a drum major, it features military drums and brass fanfares.
* [[https://soundcloud.com/diabolus-exnihilo/inuka3l "InuKa3L"]]; just like the previous example, it can be divided into two distinct parts:
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOt0tW26hRY The first part]] serves as [[EvilGenius Houka Inumuta]]'s {{Leitmotif}}, featuring rather cold, electronic sounds. Inexplicably enough, the most interesting part, which features square-dancing calls, plays whenever [[SexyMentor Aikuro]] [[TheTease starts stripping around Ryuko...]]

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5Ka0WFqftA The second half]] forms [[BloodKnight Uzu Sanageyama]]'s {{Leitmotif}}, being a lively, fast-paced piece with an Oriental feel, fitting in well with his KendoTeamCaptain theme.
* [[https://soundcloud.com/cheezitzrice/suck-your-blood "Suck your blood"]], [[EmpathicWeapon Senketsu]]'s own {{Leitmotif}}, whose lyrics refer to skimpy clothes, drinking blood, and "becoming one" to achieve greater power. Also plays when Aikuro [[LetsGetDangerous gets serious]].
** For another version of the song, listen to its remix, [[https://soundcloud.com/cheezitzrice/suck-your-blood-nzk-ver "Suck your blood (:[nZk] ver.)"]].

* [[https://soundcloud.com/cheezitzrice/ki-kill "KillaKiLL"]], with the first half blaring whenever the [[BadassCrew Elite Four]] show off their badassery. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zAMJXZnJoY The second half]] is used as [[CuteAndPsycho Nui Harime]]'s own {{Leitmotif}}, comprising of creepy chimes and oppressive beats to [[SoundtrackDissonance underline]] her [[DissonantSerenity unsettling presence]].
* [[https://soundcloud.com/diabolus-exnihilo/killl-la-kill "KiLLLakiLL"]], an orchestral arrange of "Before My Body is Dry". If Ryuko's not kicking ass with her usual {{Leitmotif}}, it's with this instead. The second half also plays whenever [[LaResistance Tsumugu]]'s around.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=get9vQp_Nlw "KiryuwaKiLL"]], an action-oriented variation of Satsuki's {{Leitmotif}}; usually used when she gets serious in the middle of a fight.
* [[https://soundcloud.com/cheezitzrice/light-your-heart-up "Light Your Heart Up"]] (sung by Aimee Blackschleger), Mako's often forgotten {{Leitmotif}}, [[PseudoRomanticFriendship which is about how much she enjoys being Ryuko's friend]].
** There's also the rearrangement, [[https://soundcloud.com/cheezitzrice/light-your-heart-up-nzk-ver "Light your heart up (:[nZk] ver.)"]] for your listening pleasure.
* "[=HilllalilL=]♪" the [[https://soundcloud.com/cheezitzrice/lill Mankanshokus']] recurring {{leitmotif}}, is among the show's more humorous tunes.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLOp9q-ggeg "k1llwaiLL"]], especially the ''chorus'' that picks up during the middle of some of [[Awesome/KillLaKill the most dramatic moments in the series]].
* [[https://soundcloud.com/cheezitzrice/i-want-to-know "I want to know"]], a sad theme that plays when Ryuko [[spoiler:parts ways with the rest of her friends and [[LaResistance Nudist Beach]], not wanting to have anything more to do with them after finding out [[IAmAMonster she's not really human]].]] And later in the same episode when [[spoiler: she gets [[MindRape brainwashed]] by Ragyo, and in the next episode when Mako and Senketsu try to rescue her from said brainwashing]].

* [[https://soundcloud.com/cheezitzrice/light-your-heart-up "Light Your Heart Up"]] (sung by Aimee Blackschleger), Mako's often forgotten {{Leitmotif}}, [[RomanticTwoGirlFriendship which is about how much she enjoys being Ryuko's friend]].

* [[https://soundcloud.com/cheezitzrice/before-my-body-is-dry "Before My Body Is Dry"]], a dynamic rock ballad which features lyrics that explicitly state [[TheHero Ryuko]] and Senketsu's motivations. It's hard to not cheer for her as this track plays while [[ThemeMusicPowerUp she puts on]] [[EmpathicWeapon Senketsu]] [[Awesome/KillLaKill to kick some serious ass]].

* Episode 16 and onwards uses [=GARNiDELiA=]'s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K42ED-7PWAo&ab_channel=GARNiDELiAVEVO "ambiguous"]] as its opening credits, while [[http://www.jpopsuki.tv/video/Sayonara-Ponytail---Shin-Sekai-Koukyougaku/c48bf87fbfdef48c268191ca5459ba82 "Shin Sekai Koukyougaku"]] [[note]]新世界交響楽 New World Symphony[[/note]] by Sayonara Ponytail is used as the ending credits.

* Who can forget Nonon's amazing classical musical fighting? [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVvtZ3EBAE1tCc6tI0nkDLNfuOi40gCOU "Youtube Playlist here"]] that someone else has put together in order of their apperance in the show.
