Borderlands 3 has the best soundtrack of the series
I mean wow the OST is full of bangers in this one.
There is not a single music piece both ambient and combat i disliked in main game and DLCs.

Jesper Kyd and Michael McCann just keep delivering.

My top favorites are the Atlas HQ/Slaughterstar 3000 combat , Neon Arterial ambient , Pyre of Stars combat , Spendopticon combat, Meridian Metroplex combat, Sanctuary III ambient, Main Menu day theme.

Wholly and completely agree.

I found the Arms Race OST by Julian Peterson to be especially good.

The jazz themes by Julian Peterson from Ava's Mysteriouslier podcast is also very good.

Well well, one thing I agree with you about this game.

I couldnt remember any track by heart I can only really remember the idle music in fyrestone in BL1
in 2 or 3 or even TPS I just could not recall any music, not that any music was bad but it was not outstanding.
im not saying 3 doesnt have the best one just saying its not remarkable compared to other videogame music
the only b3 ost that feels catchyand memorable to me are the cozy+action techno osts from jackpot dlc.

for b1, many of them are basically mad max ish with frontier desert tribal bandits vibes.

for b2, many of them are catchy to me especially the ambient ones like sanctuary hole, hero's pass, the bunker's place, harper's folly, gluttony gulch. oh also the torgue dlc's metal osts ROCKS. very fitting for my b2 playthroughs with og b2 gaige. and special mention to the opening song 'short change hero' for highlighting the theme that pandora is no place for heroes, yet both handsome jack and b2 hunters try to become heroes of pandora in their own ways (jack is delusional villain trying to play hero, while b2 hunters and the crimson raiders are vigilantes survivor mercenaries with some ideal for heroism that line up with roland's example)

for b1.5, i really love many of the techno space mystery osts. b1.5 launcher window ost (lunar launch station ost) feels very epic and foreboding... pity's fall ambient and crisis scar ambient really enhance that borderlands space frontier feel... and most of the ost from claptastic voyage are solid catchy techno tracks. oh and the song 'what makes a good maaan!' is very catchy and fits handsome jack's theme.

from tftb, the only ost that really stands out to me is 'retrograde' by james blake. it plays out when rhys managed to bring down helios space station to stop ai jack but lost the loader bot who sacrificed himself to get rhys into a lifepod while many other panicking helios hyperion workers are scrambling to get their own lifepods.

borderlands series have many banger osts after all.

Bl2 has some good background music, BL3 certainly has the better bangers.
Too bad the game was advertised and focused on the """story""" - a thing so bad you have to be completely devoid of any litracy (basically be a BL-Bandit) to like that. And that mental BS is constantly blasted over the music... they just can't shut up.

This thread isn't about the story though. You might wanna check already existing thread which story is discussed there.

Did the Maliwan Blacksite run recently for the first time. Damn the music there.
More bangers from this game were added to my favorites

The story sadly is relevant here cause it is so god aweful and constantly ruining the sound.

No it really isn't relevant in thread about admiring the soundtrack of the game.
Nor does it "constantly ruin the sound" whatever that supposed to mean.

Here let me help you out

Well no, on this we have to disagree - you are wrong.

Your kinda pushing the narrative angle as OP said this is mainly regarding the soundtrack of the game. You can mute the dialog after all.
I agree the sound track is pretty damn good, just a shame the story couldn't match it.

One of my favorites is the Digby Vermouth track before you fight Katagawa-Ball.

Blew my mind.
