Top 10 Best Splatoon Series Songs

In my opinion, all of Splatoon 2's songs are good. I might even consider it better than the original Splatoon's soundtrack. This song, Spicy Calamari Inkantation, is a perfect representation of the game's soundtrack. The high-energy synths, the harmonizing of the original Squid Sisters, and that catchy chorus make you want to sing along - only to realize you're singing a mishmash of Japanese, Thai, and English. Anyway, this song rocks. Go check it out if you haven't played the story mode of Splatoon 2.

This is what started it all. OCTO Expansion? Thanks to this song, your Octoling can live in Inkling society. Spicy Calamari Inkantation? That's just a remix of this one. And Off The Hook wouldn't have formed if it weren't for this song. Plus, it's just good - no questions asked.

No need to explain. Anything I need to say about this song has already been said by many people on the Internet.

It changed the hearts of Octolings so that they turned to the good side. It is magical and just ink-redible.

You can really feel the emotion with this song, and it's so powerful. Marie sounds like she's on the verge of breaking down into tears, and it really pulls on my heartstrings. It shows that she's worried for her cousin Callie and that she'll do anything to get her back. Also, it's an epic orchestral mix of Bomb Rush Blush and Tide Goes Out! What more could you ask for?

God, this song is by far my favorite track in Splatoon 2. Say what you will about Nintendo, but they know how to hype up a boss.

The beautiful opening from Marie is just so iconic, and the way the two cousins seem like they're trying to outsing each other... I can and have listened to this on repeat.

This song is amazing. I've never met a Splatoon fan who doesn't like it, and maybe that's just because I live under a rock, but I'd like to believe otherwise. Many songs in Octo Expansion lead to this: the tune that plays after completing a level, the Thangs, etc. It creates a piece that gives closure, but not too much, because you still have to beat the final boss.

The boss battle with Commander Tartar was so hard, yet it was one of the best experiences. I feel bad for anyone who didn't complete the DLC without using any cheats from Marina. The reward is outstanding. I died a lot during that fight, but the song keeps you moving forward.

Oh! And don't even get me started on the Ebb & Flow part of it! I have no words to describe it. I really love this song. It's on par with that heavenly melody~

It kinda reminded me of seeing humpback whales being spotted in public in New York City.

It's basically just a remix of the Squid Sisters' songs, but it's so chill and nice. Love it.

Despite the interesting name choice (which I have definitely not seen some interesting jokes about), this still sounds amazing. It did an incredible job of hyping up Splatfests with its fun nature.

This is my absolute favorite! The accidentals, the instruments, the harmonization, everything! The live version makes this even better!

This gives me fun J-Pop vibes, and I love it.

It also plays when you're about to finish off the final boss in the Octo Expansion DLC. I can imagine the lyrics to the tune of the song:

Hurry up, Agent! You can do it! Come on! Come on! Make it happen! Who knows what we'll do? Kill this guy quickly, or else we will diiiie!

Ah yes, Ebb & Flow. I'm assuming we're talking about the Splatfest version, but both are great. Ebb & Flow accurately represents Splatfests: pure fun and hype, no more, no less.

Probably the catchiest song in the series. I've played it so many times. It's so simple, but it never gets old.

This is a very underrated song. It's such an amazing combo of Octarian and Inkling music. The vocals are fantastic, and the beat is on a whole new level of fresh.

Most underrated Off the Hook song. The instruments used here are great, and Pearl's rapping isn't bad!

Ah yes, another Splatoon song that oozes style. It's just a great, fun song! The vocals support the instrumental and vice versa.

The beat on this song drops harder than my chances when the other team is four Main Power Up Splattershot pros. DJ Octavio is so much better in Splatoon 1, from the difficulty to the stage design to the music.

The second I hear this song, I think, "Oh damn, I'm gonna get my face remixed."

Of all the standard battle songs in the Splatoon games, this one gets me pumped and energized the most. There's just something about it that I love so much.

Chirpy Chips is by far my favorite band, and this song is the epitome of what makes their music so good.

This song is GREAT. The guitar is probably my favorite part! And the 8-bit solo is also great.

Chirpy Chips has to be my favorite non-idol Splatoon band.

If I had never heard this song and someone showed it to me with no context (and let's pretend I wouldn't notice the squid vocals), I would definitely never guess it was from Splatoon 2. It is so different from other Splatoon songs with its simplistic nature, which adds to its beauty. With Marina's soulful vocals and Pearl's rapping, it's very hard not to enjoy Nasty Majesty.

Holy cow, this song. Especially how it was used for the Octo Expansion trailer? Gives me chills every time. It's some of the best Off the Hook has to offer.

Please rise for the anthem of Splatoon 1. Thank you. Splattack is just pure hype - no in-between - making it all the more fun to listen to. Because of this, it perfectly represents Splatoon: nothing but fun.

Of course I had to put this here. This is what represents the Splatoon games. This song's a classic.

Most iconic right here. It's sort of the "main theme" of Splatoon and brings back memories of the trailer.

I loved this song. The perfect clash between Pearl and Marina's voices is just amazing. Pearl's silly little rapping and Marina's beautiful singing.

Into the Light is my favorite Splatoon song. In my opinion, it's better than every other Splatoon song. Octo Expansion has all these tracks with vibes that make me want to sing out loud, and that's exactly what Into the Light does. It will always be my favorite!

*Octo Expansion ends, and this song plays*

Me: *cries happy tears because I love this song so much*
Friend: Are you crying over a song?
Me: No...

Epic piece of soundtrack. The 7/8 time signature makes it feel really unique too.

That synthesizer part though. The very definition of an eargasm.

God. This remix. The theme for Splatoon 1, and kind of the series as a whole, but with a twist. The glitchy effects. The sirens. The fact that this is what plays when you fight Agent 3. Absolutely wonderful.

- Dedf1sh (Splatoon 2)]
I honestly prefer this over the original Splattack. This may be my favorite Octo Expansion song.

The best remix you could ask for in a boss battle.

I love the mix of upbeat electronic music in Pearl's rap, and the softer, more serious-sounding music tied with Marina's vocals really makes this song amazing!

I may be biased towards Off the Hook. Anyway, this song is a jam. I love the rapid-fire rapping from Pearl, and Marina's beautiful vocals.

In my opinion, it is the most touching song out of all of the Splatoon series albums.

Callie's solo is used in Super Smash Bros and remixed in the Splatoon 2 story mode with the addition of DJ Octavio. I like this song way too much.

#14 Crush is very hard not to like. This song oozes pure style while still sounding amazing. From the synths to the percussion, sax, and the contrasting low and high vocals, all the instruments come together to create something incredible. I remember playing a very annoying level in Octo Expansion that featured this song. Even though I hated that level (I forgot which one it was), I didn't mind failing because it let me hear this song more.

It was something very different compared to the pop and rock of Splatoon 2's world, but I love that Nintendo was showing off different genres of music.

Very good and nice. When I first heard it in the trailer, I was amazed that so many old bands were back.
