Oh God I could post in this thread for hours, boss battle music is consistently my favorite stuff in any game.
I've been watching thevoiceofdog's LP of LISA and this boss theme gets used in a few spots at varying speeds, it's really good-

The name is actually related to its first use in the game, and it's pretty rad.

For Monster Hunter fans, Deviljho was there to welcome you and your pals to High Rank, and bring you down a notch now that you think you're hot poo poo after you've finally reached High-Rank missions. This is what you hear before you are devoured by what is a bigger, fatter T-Rex. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBNlLWkO_RA

I like that it's super-obvious how the composer watched the Rite Of Spring segment of Fantasia before writing this piece (not that there's anything wrong with that)
Monster Hunter has a bunch of good themes for its monsters but Teostra's is probably my favorite-

People like to rag on Golden Sun in hindsight (and a decent chunk of it is deserved) but I loving love the theme that plays the first time you fight Saturos on Mercury Lighthouse. It's a shame they only use it here and for one bonus boss in The Lost Age-

E: Also because I'm jamming out and because I mentioned Monster Hunter already, the Dalamadur fight (despite being a slog) has dope music-

Part 2 (when it gets mad)- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02YO65N2vYc

Just remembered another good one from Gamecube's Baten Kaitos-

Your goal is to stop the bad guys from collecting the pieces of an dead evil god, but of course the evil god gets revived. You get to jam out to this while fighting it (twice!)

This whole soundtrack is great TBH. Lots of rough brass and strings, which I love.

Speaking of which, how the hell has this not been posted yet (via its original game)?
