I agree with you that the Archmother theme doesn't slap nearly as hard as the Hidden King. It has gotten to the point where I'm a little disappointed anytime I get to fight on AM side. However, simply giving AM the same heavy grunge bass guitar isn't the way to go IMHO.
My main issue with the Archmother's theme is that the instruments are too isolated from each other and only come in short bursts, filled with nothing but the eerie choir. The choppy TripHop beats reinforce this. I'm missing a strong baseline instrument, driving me into battle.
Since AM is supposed to embody order and control, I'd suggest the most majestic instrument of them all: The grand organ. That instrument can make some incredibly eerie sounds, in manifold voices, very high and clear, but also incredibly deep, to the fringes of rumbling infrasound. Combine that with gregorian chant and amp up the existing cello / double-bass.
I think that could work. But I have neither the skills nor the software to slap something together. So I commend you for your effort and hope that the possibility to replace sound files will remain.
