"Piggy Enemy" is a theme from Kirby Mass Attack that plays during battles with Skullord. It was composed by Shogo Sakai.

Composition

The Kirbys attack the piggy enemy in question.

"Piggy Enemy" is a tense-sounding orchestral theme in the key of A minor with a 4/4 time signature with a fast tempo of approximately 150 BPM. It starts with five jarring low-pitched notes while a trumpet plays two notes in a falling pattern. After two iterations, a flute plays a rising and falling harmonic minor scale-like passage ranging within a tenth, and then these intro elements are repeated again at a higher tone—a tendency that remains throughout the rest of the theme. After the intro, the restless main melody starts, featuring a leap down and up a fifth, followed by circling stepwise motion. It similarly plays twice and is then diatonically transposed up, making it more tense due to the appearance of a diminished fifth. Another synth plays before some loud notes play twice, the second time higher-pitched. The track ends with another melody with more notes before it loops.
