videogame music: "Never to return" from the soundtrack of "Pyre"

Hey all, it's been ages since I've posted a song so I'll give you one. This is "Never to Return" from the soundtrack of "Pyre" the latest game from Supergiant Games.

As usual we have another winner from Supergiant Games, which also created the classics 'Bastion' and 'Transistor'. The music is fantastic, the art is fantastic!

The main game-play revolves around a mystical sports game called the Rites where your team of three tries to grab a magic orb and cast it into your opponents pyre (a column of flames). This isn't something I would normally like, but I found it a lot of fun. I'm all thumbs when it comes to twitchy games, but this wasn't too hard and I was able to beat nearly all the rites in the first play-through, not bad.

The storytelling is great too, you pick up a interesting group of characters in your team "The Nightwings, and I found that cared what happened to them.

Anyway, I can recommend this game, pick it up if this is your sort of thing.
