Crater Mission (unofficial name) is a song.

Description

Similar to Octo Eight-Step, Crater Mission is a remix of Eight-Legged Advance. It is the only song used for the non-boss missions in The Crater.

Instead of having a prominent guitar track or prominent (reversed) samples from another song, Crater Mission has prominent synthesized 'vocals' throughout (giving the song an acapella-esque feeling to it), punctuated by trumpets. The first 'voice' starts as the intro ends, at around the 0:02 mark - this 'voice' has a somewhat rough, burpy tone to it, and provides much of the structure of the song, with the trumpets mainly accompanying this voice. Around the 0:33 mark, a second, higher-pitched 'voice' joins in, providing faster-paced 'vocals', more reminiscent of a backing vocal track, but being incomprehensible just like the first 'voice'. At the 0:58 mark, the second 'voice' ceases, and is replaced by a third 'voice'. This new 'voice' has a rather yodelly tone, and whilst it is still incomprehensible and artificial, this 'voice' sounds more like an actual voice. Between 1:10 and 1:19, the vocals cease (with an instrumental repeating the melody from the third 'voice'), with the third vocal making a triumphant return to join back in at 1:19. The song loops back to the intro at 1:21.

Crater Mission can be seen as an exaggerated parody of its precursors, working with the rest of the Crater's presentation to lure players into thinking that Splatoon 3's single-player mode will once again follow the same structure as the single-player modes of the prior two games (following the same structure as a prominent single-player level theme from the prior two games) - ultimately amplifying the impact of Alterna mostly abandoning said structure, for a less linear experience (along the lines of the Octo Expansion). The irreverant tone of the 'vocals' in this mostly-'vocal' track (especially the segment between 0:58-1:21) works to parody its precursors, not taking itself seriously, in constrast to the more refined, processed, and unironic tones of Eight-Legged Advance and Octo Eight-Step.
