I love how asphodel's leitmotif is that low hum droning sound coupled with an ominous, slow, echoing drum beat, and that you can hear it both in Asphodel's theme and in this track as well.
so Darren korb is now making prog and its for a game based on greek mythology? What does this man just go around doing exactly what I wanna do for a living? God bless you supergiant.
I love how you can hear him get more and more prog over time. Like bastion was pretty straight up, Transistor had a few odd time signatures and syncopations, Pyre had flawless changes between 5/4 and 6/4 all the way through in Through The Valley, and now THIS. God, I'm in awe.
@@sageanastasi2028 and in general the structure he adds to the soundtracks like the transitions between the main theme/downriver/downside ballad. those types of continuity pieces between tracks that happen in pyre are really interesting as well.
I love how he uses the 5/4 time signature so perfectly. Just enough off traditional beat to create a sense of unease, but almost always 4 notes per measure to make it sound like it's in 4/4. Expertly done
@@n1thecaptain965 lmao instead of the traditional beat of 4 beats per measure, he used 5. Much like the mission impossible theme, it's enough to sound off but not enough to really notice the difference
The part at 2:07 reminds me a lot of the Lightning Chariot Base track from Kid Icarus Uprising. The driving rhythm and drone in the bg is similar I guess.
I want to wear a Chiton and do an intricate dance in circles with tambourines and the bones of sacrificed animals to this. Hard stomps and high kicks and rythmic jumps. So cool! So fun! So very SuperGiant!
I get Prince of Persia Warrior Within vibes. Finally some heavy metal themed music. I don't want to listen to all of that too early before release though.
Am I weird that this reminds me of something similar to Court of the Crimson King? Kind of spooky and epic (using the word to mean grandiose and large in scope)
I love the throwback to what I believe is MAtt Uelman's Diablo with some of the hard hitting drums for Tartarus. This soundtrack is phenomenally genius.
Sounds like it's dropped a half step down? Maybe a full step. Some songs on the bastion soundtrack are as well. It might also have the low E string dropped to D.
sorry kids, im not installing another launcher/useless drm. you might get better percent from epic, but there wont be too much popularity. maybe ill play the pirated version until it comes out on steam.
yeah man, go ahead, play the pirated version, steal from some indie developers. if you don't want to install something, that's fine, but don't be a prick about it. Wait for it to come out elsewhere or bugger off.
I mean, its Supergiant, im going to support them anyway I can. I'd love it to be on Steam, but until then I will buy it on Epic and play the hell out of this fun game that they poured their hearts into making.
Yeah man, fuck indie developers for thinking they can get money out of me! I'm gonna pirate the shit out of this game and processed to complain if I don't like the game
Throw awards at him, throw awards at him, throw awards at him
Fine wine
cause for keep him calm?
Lernie might not be much for conversation, but he’s got some killer tunes.
When Zag named him Lernie and the fight fully embraced it to the end.. 20/10
the hydra's a she, actually
@@Kat-kc1hy are you a cryptopaleontologist? that's amazing
@@Deubler it is revealed on the game
@@ripleyH8 It's always refered to as "it" though. Never said he/she about it.
That river is called Phlegethon, and it is one of the best words ever.
anyone interested it’s pronounced fleg-i-thon
Bless you
"Sounds like a marathon for hawking spitballs" (sorry if the quote is wrong, it's from memory)
it sounds like an insult. "Get out of here, phlegethon"
its def in my top five. along with hypocrit, anthropamorphic, swick, and maybe daedalus? not sure
I love how asphodel's leitmotif is that low hum droning sound coupled with an ominous, slow, echoing drum beat, and that you can hear it both in Asphodel's theme and in this track as well.
And a 5/4 time signature
I’ve also noticed that in every area, there’s a song in c minor, just like the main theme

It's 5/8 based on the coupling. But yeah it's phenomenal.
I'm gonna pretend I know what you're talking about and say that I agree, expertly done indeed

@@Pseudoku_RL My stupid ass actually kind of understood that, thanks
@@n1thecaptain965 generally counting to 3 is easy. Counting to 4 can be a little tougher. Counting to 5 tho? That's a tricky one
Posting your super awesome soundtrack right after the game's announcement? Please never stop what you are doing
You absolute legends, sneaking this one out under all of our noses. Phenomenal.
7:17 is exquisite
This alone makes the game an instant buy for me, i love me some prog rock, Greek mythology is cool as fuck, and Darren Korb is an absolute LEGEND
Darren manages to surprise me every game... This man is a hero.
the lament of orpheus bits are so good
The part at 2:07 reminds me a lot of the Lightning Chariot Base track from Kid Icarus Uprising. The driving rhythm and drone in the bg is similar I guess.
That’s what it is! I knew it sounded familiar
Both games are related to Greek mythology too - what a coincidence
Just give me all the darren korb, all of it
ASCEND WITH KOOOOOOOORB
GOOOOOORB
This game is pure gold
I need to buy the soundtrack, like right now.
I want to wear a Chiton and do an intricate dance in circles with tambourines and the bones of sacrificed animals to this. Hard stomps and high kicks and rythmic jumps. So cool! So fun! So very SuperGiant!
Has some very Diablo 2 feel to the music, with a Supergiant flare. I love this! (I always enjoy SGG's music)
When i fight lernie i always draw out the fight just to hear the best part
I get Prince of Persia Warrior Within vibes. Finally some heavy metal themed music.
I don't want to listen to all of that too early before release though.
Man Prince of Persia 😭😭 I wish more of it came.
Warrior Within was my favourite.
"Hey, aren't you that bone snake from castlevania?"
"HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS"
10/10 great time signature
This man can do nothing wrong.
Am I weird that this reminds me of something similar to Court of the Crimson King? Kind of spooky and epic (using the word to mean grandiose and large in scope)
I know it's been two years, but yeah, it does sounds like something out of King Crimson
probally some kind of prog rock influence in there
no wonder this is called river of flame, this is absolute fucking molten HEAT
This soundtrack is as fire as the Styx
Wrong river pal.
This track is as fire as the phlegethon.
@@rubdulbah3201 there we go
I like how this track sounds almost like Lament of Orpheus in parts. It's a moment of solemnity in an otherwise powerful track.
I love the throwback to what I believe is MAtt Uelman's Diablo with some of the hard hitting drums for Tartarus. This soundtrack is phenomenally genius.
2:06 Best Part :D
My fave Asphodel track
i hate asphodel i love this game 😍 Zag, Meg Cerberus 😃
Masterpiece
i make the nastiest nasty face when the keyboard sound thing does the wuueww wuew wueeeeew
When will this game have badges on steam so I can get my hades steam background
Hey Lernie
Risk of rain meets banished ost
3:00 - 3:45, 7:17 - 8:00 ❤❤❤
goddamn i love bağlama
Lament of Orpheus - boss remix
Отличный ост будет!
Great.
We’re breaking out of Asphodel with this one boys.
this is prog as hell
To any musician out there, what kind of tuning is this ? I want to try playing some of this on my guitar, but this surely isn't E standard.
Sounds like it's dropped a half step down? Maybe a full step. Some songs on the bastion soundtrack are as well. It might also have the low E string dropped to D.
Part if it is played on a mandolin also...
@@snappycaster yeah the drop D is surelly there, but maybe after Drop D, it's half a tone down or a full tone down. I'm gonna give it a try.
idk I play drums man
“Wait, you guys are playing instruments?”
Where can I find the tabs of this I am not good enough to play by ear pls help
i hope we get a swamp in hades 2 it’d be a really cool parallel
@@Moondust_Maedae Cant believe they Soul'ed my Hades 2
They even Put a swamp!
I'm getting some Durkillesburg vibes from this
ayyyyyyyy NITW
Aw yeee.
Does this song remind anyone else of schism by TOOL?
I thought I was the only one
Wrong track mate lol
2:07
Battlestar Galactica ost level gut 👌
AaaaaAAaaaAh
5:12
This kind of reminds me of E1M1.
wait till u hear god of the dead and the king and the bull
なんか、不気味
sounds like Tool.
🪄👑THY Will be done
