Music
The Music in Castle Crashers features over three dozen songs created either by The Behemoth or members of the Newgrounds community. Given the nature of their origin, these pieces often are considered to be far more creative or unique than those available in many major commercial games.
The tracks listed below all appear, in some form, in Castle Crashers. Five of these tracks - Castle Crashers Menu Loop, Four Brave Champions, Rage of the Champions, Second Thoughts, and Spanish Waltz - originated from a July 2007 music contest organized by Newgrounds. Nearly 150 other tracks also were submitted for consideration; for more information, see Castle Crashers Music Contest.
