Refused unveil "Never Fade Away" from Cyberpunk 2077
Refused have unveiled another song from the forthcoming Cyberpunk 2077 game today. The song “Never Fade Away” can be streamed below.
The band, who performs under the name Samurai in the game, knew being in this game was a big opportunity. “When CD Projekt Red approached us about writing music for Cyberpunk 2077, we jumped at the chance. Partly because of the challenge: to write music for a fictional band that was similar to Refused, but quite different at the same time, having the music and lyrics be shaped and determined by the feel, tone and plot of an outside narrative,” the band stated. Cyberpunk 2077 will be released on April 16, 2020 via PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Microsoft Windows, and Google Stadia.
On October 18, Refused will release their new album War Music, which can be pre-ordered here. The band will embark on a co-headlining tour with Thrice in October/November. In December, Refused will perform a slew of headlining shows through Europe.
