LYRICS:
Amid these shades
Forever drifting nowhere
Ever kept confined
Outside the gates
A taste of freedom so rare
Worlds I long to find
I can hear the distant calls
There is no easy way out of here
There is no easy way, persevere
There is so much more beyond these walls
There is no easy way, out of here
There is no easy way, persevere
A friend afar
A shared and fleeting moment
Calling out in vain
I see no stars
Aligned they keep us frozen
Fated to remain
I can hear the distant calls
There is no easy way out of here
There is no easy way, persevere
There is so much more beyond these walls
There is no easy way, out of here
There is no easy way, persevere
Stone cracks
Building the walls back
Keep track
Waiting for the day
To stride
Out of the inside
Far far away
I can hear the distant calls
There is no easy way out of here
There is no easy way, persevere
There is so much more beyond these walls
There is no easy way, out of here
There is no easy way, persevere
Far far away

A lot of people wanted this one, so I'm glad the game was inspiring :) It was easy in 2020 to relate to the theme of being inside, wanting to experience life in the big wide open world...

You ever considered doing a Transistor song? I personally preferred it to Bastion...
Although Calamity is such a good song; one of the first times I heard it was on the Escapist's live Miracle Of Sound event... ahhh, those were the days... jumpin' around to the encore of Nord Mead.
Heh, I was just going to ask if it was concerning that one could view a song about a man struggling to break free from the Underworld as a metaphor for our current reality.
Great work, adding it to my list of songs to fall asleep to. (Of which all of the songs that are permanent fixtures of that playlist are yours.)
Hey! That`s two songs in a week. Don`t over work yourself!
This one hit even closer to home for me than expected. Four years ago now, I was put on sick leave due to severe burnout, and I've been struggling with depression, anxiety, isolation and rehabilitation ever since.
There certainly is no easy way out of here. But I have to perservere.
For there is so much more beyond these walls.
Thank you, Gavin. I need this reminder quite often, and this was a good one.
@@Tengila Glad the song's message resonated with you. Wishing you the best :)
In the name of Hades, Gavin, I accept this song!
Well done play on game interactions, bravo.
@@theh.i.v.e9036 thanks mate!
Gavin's Call: Make all enemys groove* for 4 and 1/4 of a minute's

Моё почтение, не ожидал вас тут увидеть Алина!
Indeed.
Nice to see you here, by the way.
Thanks Alina! :)
OMG, this is Alina) XD
I was having literally the worst week of my entire life. My girlfriend passed away just a few days ago, and I'm, understandably, not in the best mental state right now. But I always have your music to rely on to keep me going. So thank you for continuing your hard work and making the world seem just a bit less dark and keep up the amazing work.
I'm sorry for your loss, stranger
I'm sorry. Prayers to you and her family.
I'm so sorry for your loss... stay safe and mourn as you feel you need, stranger.
I don't know what I'd do if I were in the same situation. My deepest condolences.
I'm sorry for your loss. Wishing you strength and healing
Theres something in your past that you can't erase,
So you reference it in something new.
Love your callbacks Gav, absolutely brilliant
I'm a bit new to our glorious musical demigods work, what are referring to?
@@nikolayvladimirov8633 2:35 the music flows similarly to his Bastion song "Calamity" which like Hades was made by Supergiant
@@SoraR123 Thanks mate
I also love the motifs he snuck in ^^
I always scour his songs for similar motifs and callbacks. Sometimes they appear in unlikely places, like some We Are War callbacks in A Father's Arms.
I heard a distant call, Gavin.
That's why I still listening to your songs.
Five years have passed and you still have some tricks in your sleeve, never fails to impress the audiense. Passionante and inspiring, they got me through three hard break-ups, one near-death illness and death of my grandparents.
I heard it.
And will hear.
good job and stay strong!
I hope the next 5 years treat you better :)
Stay strong
As a Greek guy I can say for sure that the inspiration is 100% on point. And, honesty, better than 99.99% of modern Greek songs. Amazing work Gav, as always! Keep it up. Regards from Greece.
As a fellow Greek, συμφωνώ
Can say the same here, and when I was younger I listened to A LOT of Greek music, since my grandparents came from Greece
Gonna have to check this game out! The hook in this is so damn catchy awesome job man! 🙏
You Will love IT 😀 and definitly will like Dusa 😁
You’ll enjoy it.
It became one of my all-time favorite games.
It's a really fun game and I'd love to see you make a song for this
Divide + Miracle of Sound?, that might be too much awesome in one place
It is seriously a great game, I am not a fan of the genre but the characters and story dragged me in...
I'm a simple person, I see Hades, I see Miracle of Sound, I click immediately.
8 YEARS SINCE THE CALAMITY!? Yet you were still able to still have that throwback. Amazing work!
Makes me wish there was a song for Transistor. Such a wonderful, deeply sad game, with an obvious focus on the music...
I remember hearing Calamity live at Escapist Expo.
It can't have been so long ago.
That would mean I'm really old.
Huh. Jesus singing a song about the Greek pantheon
2020 has been an interesting year
I doubt Real Jesus would have any issue with any pantheon.
And his last song was about a legendary Irish hound.
@@seratonyn That is a statement very contradictory to what the Bible says (not that I care that much.) But if that was sarcasm, sorry, I don't read sarcasm well on the internet.
@@josephpeck8723 humans wrote the Bible, not Jesus.
@@josephpeck8723 I personally don't care either mind you. But if you were going to discuss Bible stuff the Bible wasn't written by Jesus
The grit in your voice from 2:50-3:32 really sells this song for me. So much power and conviction to match the meaning of the song.
Yes
Power in the chorus! I love it!
HEY WAIT HOLD ON IS THAT A CALAMITY CALLBACK???? One of my favorites of yours!
I've been here almost ten years now and I still end up impressed by almost every track. You are a fantastically talented person Gav and I'm thankful you've stuck to your work all these years
Thanks for sticking around :)
"Stone cracks
Building the walls back"
I love how you always include little throw-backs to previous songs. it's been an honor to see your style and talent mature over the years. Keep rocking Gavin.
Less talkin', more rockin', boyo!
Couldn't have phrased it better
5 months passed and I still don't understand how this comment is not on the very top
@@shiluk84 Aww, thank you
I love the little "tape rewind" filter on "fated to remain". These little details are what really makes your songs shine. Great stuff, Gav
Gavin ! You can't do that now ! I'm still in the middle of binge watching The Tale of Cu Chulainn on repeat !
Never realized how much I needed metal lyre until now. Blown away by this song and the game, great work.
That reference to your Bastion song caught me off guard because it was so smooth
The whole song has Calamity vibes, imo, but yeah Gav's an expert at those smooth callbacks :heart:
@@treyslider6954 yeah, I felt like the timbre was almost identical, if a bit mutated.
I actually didn't know about this game until just now. And when I saw the gameplay, I couldn't help but think it looked similar to Bastion. And then that subtle reference to Calamity in the bridge...
Amazing bit of musical continuity, my friend! It's genuinely one of my favourite aspects of your work.
Whish we could have a song about transistor too. Even if I love bastion and calamity, It's my fave!
Bruhh go play it now. Got 40 or so hours on it by now and only want to play more.
Well Supergiant Games are the ones who made both Bastion and Hades (also Transistor and Pyre) - they excel at isometric games with gorgeous artstyle, awesome music, excellent gameplay and best storytelling.
I love the cheeky little smile you give during the callback. Also love the song as a whole, actually gets me wanting to check Hades out
As someone who got addicted to the OST on Spotify for a good couple weeks, you nailed Darren Korb’s style perfectly.
I love the shoulder shimmy at 3:07.
Also the song. The song is fantastic.
That shoulder shimmy though. :P
Ha :D
Having followed so many of your previous songs, it always does my heart good to see you retain your musical spark, Mr. Miracle of Sound. And given your subject matter this time is a game that isn't a Triple-A title, but a hidden gem, I salute you all the moreso.
Far, far away!
Your hair's looking good as ever, I see.
Quarantine has been kind to the people who prefer my hair long (like my wife for example, lol)
I had to look at his hair in the video, and yeah, you ain't wrong
Yet another 10/10, Gavin - astonishing!
I enjoy these mythological songs, thank you for these lyrical and melodical masterpieces, Gavin! 😁 You are doing amazing and inspiring work, keep going on! 😁
Yessss, the Calamity callbacks, I never get tired of hearing references to your past songs, always get chills. Amazing song as always, for an amazing game too.
This is still one of my favourite songs; listened to it on repeat for all of last year that it was one of my top most played!
I don't know how the hell you manage to make music that sounds like it should be in the actual games you base them off of. Every song of yours I've listened to has made me go "This should be in the game"
I think I might die if you collaborated with Darren Korb. You two actually have pretty similar sounds. Mixing acoustic with rock/metal riffs, very lyrical. I love your music so much, thank you for keeping me (relatively) sane over the years bc not gonna lie, your music has helped me out.
I love the videos where we actually see you in the process of recording, Gav, you always look like you're having the time of your life!
Thanks for another fantastic song!
That callback to your bastion song, its always been one of my favorites, i did not expect to here a callback to a song that old, nice
I've seen so much great material from this game and I almost bought it two-ish weeks ago. I guess I have to buy it now. Your music always puts me in a good mood Gav, I hope your passion for this work never fails.
omg, two songs, one a few days after the other? we are truly blessed, thanks gav!
I really like when we can see you in your videos, Gavin. It's an additional reminder of the amount of passion you pour into theses songs.
I love the little tribute at 2:35. Oldschool shout out, you always put such great references to your own work in songs. Great work, as usual.
Gosh darn it, Gav. Every year, I think you've outdone yourself. Then I listen to a song like this and I'm like, "HE'S DONE IT AGAIN!". Can't wait for level 11!
Loving this ode to perseverance and escape, the perfect song for 2020
Gavin: "There is no easy way out of here!"
Kratos: "Objection!"
This comment makes me wonder what would happen if Kratos and Zagreus met.
@kiekebe Eh, I'm not sure. I think Kratos would win, but I dont think he would kill Zagreous
It's fascinating how you always capture the quality and style of these games. I clicked this in the background for music while I was working from home today, and it didn't properly click to me that it was you until about two-thirds through the song. Well done!
God, Come on! it's been so long I don't listen to your songs and here am I, freakin addicted again. What is left to do else then listen to that in multiple loops. There is no easy way out of here
Thought you could slip a "Calamity" reference by us, did ya Gav?
I discovered Calamity like...a week ago, and it's quickly become one of my top jams. Seeing it woven in here caught me way off guard.
You see that little wink, he knew exactly what he was doing. Speaking of, gotta go play Calamity on guitar again!
If they're not gonna gimme a Bastion sequel I'll have to improvise ways to do callbacks, haha
"Calamity" has become to ingrained in my mind that when I was trying mention Bastion to someone (in the context of other Supergiant games), it took me several minutes to think of anything beyond "You know, the Calamity game."
@@dex1157 Gav references previous related music a LOT. Here are a couple examples of it that I can think off the top of my head:
-All of his _Dark Souls_ songs use the same leitmotif at least once
-All of his _Assassin's Creed_ songs use some form of the phrase "justice runs in crimson rivers"
-His songs Beauty Bleak and Some Things Never Change for _Fallout 3_ and 4, respectively, use the line "Sterile soil will harden. Wasted world, my garden." They even use it with the same vocal melody.
-His songs City of Night, City of Dreams, and Neon Red for _Cyberpunk 2077_ use the phrase "running out on the edge" repeatedly. City of Night and City of Dreams also use the line "ghost in the city of X," with X being night and dreams, respectively.
Always love when you do callbacks to older songs. Hands down one of my favorite things about your music.
I've played Hades almost a thousand times and every time it's as awesome as this song is. It's really awesome that you recreated the amazingness of Hades in this song!
I'm actually tempted to make my own roleplay character with this song as their theme! And there's not a lot of vocal songs that I'd use as a theme for an OC. *Very* well done, Gavin!
this is actually so awesome, the style is spot on and the lyrics are so accurate
Is that a sneaky Bastion song reference? Well done!
I have been listening to you for around six years now and I'm just amazed that not only do you get better with every song, your old music is still just as good as it use to be. I love your work, Man.
Finally! I was expecting a Hades song since I heard The Path (I know, different games, but that song has such a Hades vibe as well)!
This may just be the greatest song you’ve made yet, I just can’t stop listening to it. It just sounds so... I cant even begin describe how amazing it is. The lyrics, the instrumental, the video, it just creates the the kind of music that makes you feel like an immortal warrior, which perfectly fits the game. Sorry about the somewhat-long rant, I just didn’t expect the song to be so... empowering and inspirational. Either way, I hope you have a fantastic day because you’ve sure as hell made mine, pun fully intended this time.
Glad you love it so much :)
Absolutely love the short bursts where you come on screen during the song. I really hope you keep it in future songs, it really fits well.
I also love the Calamity callback. Haven't listened to that one in a while.
Aside from being amazing song, it also captures the Greek sound and the atmosphere of Balkan fairytales/myths. Of course, there is a meaning outside the context of the game as always. Great job, Gav!
As someone who grew up in greece and always had a love for mythology and culture in general, the fact that you went as far as to get the instruments so right is just perfect my dude!
I'll have been listening to you for a decade this 2021 and you're consistently pushing out bangers.
Keep us on the right side, Gav. 😌
Oh man. I thuroughly enjoyed Bastion and your song about it many years ago. I recently finished Hades and decided to see if you did a song on it and did not disappoint. When I heard those clever Bastion leitmotifs I felt tingles.
Me after seeing Hades steam page for the first time : yet another game about greek mythology, huh? Maybe later.
Me after hearing a friend talking about Hades : Well if it's that good I guess I could at least check what this game is about...
Me after listening to this song : Alright FINE I'm gonna play it after finishing P5R!
First, a tale of our favorite doggo, this beauty of a song, and we get to see you handsome face, all within the span of a week?! Maybe the end of 2020 won’t be so bad. In all seriousness, thanks Gav for another amazing song and I can’t wait for the next one. Take care for now!
30.10.2020
Out of 2.3 thousand people there are 3 that either misclicked or wait in line to SUPERHELL, possibly to try and escape themselves to this awesome track!
One of the best tracks lately!
You are like a breath of fresh air in these difficult times. Here is some love You deserve
Those instrumental and vocal harmonies..... Pure gold. It's amazing how better your production get since the time I've first heard your music
I went back after listening to see when Calamity came out, and it struck me that I've been listening to your music for over 8 years and the music keeps getting better! Thank you
Its always fun coming back to your songs after playing the games so you can finally get what the lyrics are about.
Whenever people ask for music recommendations, I always recommend you. Your work is phenomenal!
The sacred serenade of sensual, saturnine sounds has soothed me in such sorrowful times , such a silken voice , such a solemn yet spirited tune that has my ears to surrender themselves in all the song's sweetness. 💗
The animation sequence was absolutely gorgeous as well!
Another banger, Gavin has such a high standard for his songs these days.
The notification for this song was literally the ONLY thing that could make me pause Hades. Well done :D (Also, it's nice seeing you in a video, Gav !)
The way you articulate song to match the background music of the game. Such an amazing touch.
I’m a simple man, I see miracle of sound post a song, I check for it on every music app and buy it if I can.
"There is so much more beyond these walls" Cries in 2020...
"Jokes" aside though, thank you for this song. I needed that.
So glad you made a song for Hades! I've loved all of the Super Giant games and your Bastion song is one of my favorites of yours. Keep up the good work!
This song uploaded just before I reached the final boss. Against all my expectations, I won on my first attempt while rocking out to your music. *Epic.*
I dunno why, but you always adjust your style to fit perfectly with games that have a mythos/mythology
2 songs in such quick succession!! what an awesome surprise!!!
This was the first video in days that I've seen without ads. Impressive
This song is incredibly well done! I love the call back to your Bastion piece too, i imagine because they were done by the same studio and that song was another one of my favorites done by you!
Miracle of Sound, the Greek god of Rock and Roll.
His name is Gav and as a Greek I approve of this message
The Muses were inspiring Gavin.
This song got me to try out the game and while the game wasn’t for me I will say both are wonderfully well made
Gotta love the fact that Gavin doesn't care if the game is mainstream or indie, just that if he likes it enough to make a song. Also loved this format of both yourself playing along the game.
That Bastion callback gave me flashbacks haha!
Another excellent song. I love how you manage to replicate the feel of the soundtrack of whatever it is that you're making a song on. Especially here with the bouzouki(?) being front-and-center.
I liked the way you sampled some of your material from Bastion. Added a dash of nostalgia
Well this is a nice surprise for my birthday. A song about my favorite game this year by my favorite musician.
That Bastion reference.
This song was indeed needed.
Good job, Gav
A song for my favorite game, from one of my favorite artists - yes, please! I love the sound of that zither throughout the whole thing, it adds such a spice.
Honestly this song really speaks to me. I've always felt trapped at home, especially now, for many reasons. Beyond just covid. My family is religious, I'm not anymore. They mostly still think I'm straight and cis and am going to grow up and have a family. But in reality I'm a pansexual aromantic nonbinary trans girl who's only just now figuring herself out. I can hear the distant calls. But right now I can't be myself, drifting nowhere, kept confined. And until I'm out on my own and financially independent, I don't know how much I'll be able to be myself. I don't know if my parents would do anything, but I'm still scared. There is no easy way out of here, there is no easy way, persevere. There is so much more I can be but right now I feel trapped and not understood. There is so much more beyond these walls. Your music honestly makes me feel awesome, it's uplifting and energizing and motivating and reminds me to persevere and I am fabulous as hell and nobody, not even the forces of hell itself, can stop me. Thanks, Gavin. Keep rocking.
"There is no easy way out of here. There is no easy way, perservere!"
I can't be the only person who needed just that.
Christ, get some therapy. You sound like a wreck.
@@combativeThinker While seeking therapy would probably be a good idea for her, you've chosen a rather rude way to frame the suggestion. Not my business, I know, but still.
That Bastion bit brought me some nostalgia. Congrats with yet another great song.
"More cowbell" sign, love it. Great song Gav! One of your best!
Well spotted. A gift form a fellow musichead!
Well you gotta have more cowbell, baby!
I thought this game was about greek mythology. Why is there an Irish god of music in the middle of the video?
Oh thats just Gav, he's hard to chain down and keep in one place, between the riffs and lyrics he's able to get into just about any gods realm and leave with some trinkets.
@@the97thsurvivor46 Yeah, I'm pretty sure they stopped trying to keep him out, at this point.
@@justinhitriz8770 I think he gets invited sometimes for special occasions, or when a new demi god needs a theme song.
He's an aspect of Apollos Harp.
His Varatha the Eternal Spear turns into Cuchulain's Gae Bolg! ;D
Forevermore I shall enjoy your tunes, my lord.
2 songs in a week ?
AND a callback to your awesome bastion song ?
Gav, you are spoiling us
There is No Escape from how good this song is.
Absolutely nailed the feel even from the first few chords, Gavin. Cheers on ya!
This song definitely will become one of my favorites😭 amazing melody❤️❤️❤️
A Hades song?
Another MoS song just one week after the last one?
*LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO!!*
That vocal melody was so good man. I mean the whole things was so good, but the vocals.... excellent.
Today is my birthday, thank you for releasing this awesome gift
Your music is food for my writing Gav!! You've got such a gift, never stop!
the initial rift was so good the bandcamp page opened automatically, what a beautiful music
Ok, I'm really enjoying these cut-ins of you playing the actual mix. Really adds this kind of authenticity to everything IDK, it's just really cool to me. It's been awhile since we've seen you play in your videos.
This might be one of the best songs you ever made! The hook is simply fantastic and refuses to leave my head
I had no idea how much I need this. Thank you
