As long as they don't have fiddles, flutes and bagpipes LOL.
I always like Battle scenes to start with drums, like war drums. A simple beat and then go into something catchy.
No cutesy earth child in the mushroom forest kind of RPG tunes either. I want something solid and epic like anything from E.S. Posthumus. They make music that sounds very LOTR like. Love their song Pompeii:

My favorite battle scene song will always be FF7...

But then it'd be kind of goofy with that epic song triggerring when you open up a battle report.
