“The Last of Us is the most emotionally effective game soundtrack of the last decade, and arguably one of the greatest videogame soundtracks of all time,” notes Taylor Ambrosio Wood. “We are extraordinarily passionate about Santaolalla’s work, and as fans of his ourselves, we were personally invested in creating a beautiful and respectful tribute to this amazing soundtrack. This album aims to enter the world of The Last of Us from an adjacent perspective, while still maintaining the emotional core of what made the original soundtrack so monumental.”
This companion album tells the game’s story through all the key musical moments which fans will immediately recognize.

Of writing lyrics for the title track, Ambrosio Wood notes:
“I wanted to take the theme and write lyrics that were representative of the narrative themes from The Last of Us. I tried to imagine how it would feel to live in a world like that, and write from the perspective of someone trying to reconcile their existence in a dead and broken world. Maybe they would find solace in knowing that in the end we will all be ash and dust.”
