Everything about “this road” by Poe, the song at the end of each Alan chapter in Alan Wake 2, makes me go absolutely wild. The way it changes every time to fit what Alan is going through and Alice’s own perspective on his destruction over these years. The last time it appears is an entire 9 minute long segment that slowly distorts until it becomes clear “it’s a spiral.” The whispers of “I’ll find you…”

Even the sequence of events that created this song is unbelievable. Like what do you mean this is one of the first new songs by Poe in almost 2 decades? That Poe and Sam Lake worked on and recorded it in the same place that House of Leaves was edited?? House of Leaves, the book that was one of the major inspirations for Control and Alan Wake, and is written by the brother of Poe??? The looping of it all,,,,

#alan wake 2 #poe #the song is so good…#btw 90% of this info comes from the destructoid article which is great!!#the rest comes from the million interviews and tweets of Sam Lake promoting House of Leaves and Poe #I need ‘this road’ to be available on streaming 🫠#this is like the fourth time I’ve posted about this one song 😃
