Low Roar - Slow Down

[@ingvarrvargard]

Although I’ve never seen Ryan, never spoken to him, I’m feeling like I’ve lost a very close friend. He was not only my favorite musician, but he also saved me many times, like many other people. Ryan saved lives. He transformed the pain of his life into a great beauty. That pain I could feel through his vocals and lyrics, and, honestly, in every song I found myself. There’s a Low Roar song to every part of my life. For example, there was a day when I was coming home from a trip in summer 2021. That day started with me getting a message from my girlfriend, that she was leaving me. That day was also a day when Hummingbird and Everything To Lose first appeared on Spotify as singles. “Tell me how this will end”, huh. It has been about one and a half years since then by now. I will listen to Low Roar for the rest of my life, I think. As an artist, I will do my job until my last breath, make the best out of it and look up to Ryan as an example. Low Roar has had just enormous impact on me and my work, so I will be forever grateful for having lived at a time when Ryan was creating his masterpieces and for finding him at all. We only have one life, one shot. Don’t waste it. And even when life seems dark enough to give up on it, don’t. Because whlie you are still alive, there is always something you can do to make this world a better place for people that you care about and for all the people that breathe and feel just like you do. And because Ryan never gave up. "I've learned more from this Than anything I have read in my whole life" Goodbye, friend. Gratitude for all you've done. Rest In Peace.

[@MegaMetallicaMASTER]

I feel exactly the way you do, a loss in my soul. I’ve been posting covers, if you check any out drop me a message and take it easy. We all need to slow down.

[@danbariani4371]

I discovered Low Roar through Death Stranding, as i'm sure many people did. But what i love about this song is that it seems to capture the point of the game, to SLOW DOWN. Slow down on trying to run everywhere, shoot everyone and also when it comes to trying to understand the whole story immediately. But most importantly, slow down about trying to judge and hate everyone and keep them away. Make an effort to connect with them, as the players do throughtout the game using the "strand" system, as Sam does in the Story, and as Kojima productions and Ryan do through their art.

[@legion8863]

The games gives great perspective, and teaches to live - one - moment - at a time.

[@edmar8711]

Re connect the world my brother. Many songs of the game speak about that everything that kojima shows on that master pice its a remember of we cant do this alone, we need to connect each other to keep foward. Devide society is a slow down walk to the extintion.

I can't believe this :( Low Roar has been one of my favorite bands since 2016. His music has helped me get through tough times, even to this day. I send lots of love to his family and friends. "because we look not at what can be seen but at what cannot be seen; for what can be seen is temporary, but what cannot be seen is eternal. For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens." 2 Corinthians 4:18-5:1 Rest in Peace Ryan ❤

I went to a Low Roar gig at the end of November where Ryan was playing a solo set. Was absolutely incredible. Met him after the show and had a chat, he is a really nice guy. The kind of music that touches your soul.

[@briancarroll1241]

I wish I could listen to a lot more songs that had this vibe tbh

[@sergiopradosoria3785]

I would recomend listening to The Acid - Red, The Acid overall has similar vibes to LowRoar, yeah but not exactly the same. I recommend the song Red because it was the first one I heard from them and gave me the vibes, but pretty much any other song gives me similar vibes. Also recomend listening to Junip, a Swedish band, my favorite song from them is Your life, your call, but they have very good songs.

[@MegaMetallicaMASTER]

Chuck it on repeat ♥️

[@Fortune090]

@@sergiopradosoria3785 Yes! I second the recommendation for Junip. José González also has some pretty somber stuff that sounds like this.

Following your work since I first heard "I'll keep coming" in the reveal trailer to Death Stranding. Since then your music is part of my every day. Even got the chance to see you live in Düsseldorf Germany two years back. Now Death Stranding is out, I played through it and the way your music is placed in the game just made me tear up more than one time. I really love your creativity and passion that can be felt listening to your work. And I am very thankful to Hideo Kojima - because it was through him that I could learn about you. I wish all the best and success to you, you deserve it!

Lyrics : "Slow Down" I'm a man of my word I could say Probably maybe not What seemed close now seems so far away You're a blurry spot The audience doesn't stare at me the same way anymore I'm a bastard a self centered jinn I'm a loaded gun I won't hurt anyone Well, I need to slow down Well, I need to slow, slow down Made a promise and I lost Had a plan that was a bust Am I coming in clear? Draw up a plot to get me out of here Take this pill it will calm all your nerves I swear, you'll be safe Now look around before we fade away like a bell that's rung Like a setting sun Well, I need to slow down Well, I need to slow, slow down Made a promise and I lost Had a plan that was a bust Am I coming in clear? Draw up a plot to get me out of here Well, I need to slow down Well, I need to slow, slow down Made a promise and I lost Had a plan that was a bust Am I coming in clear?

[@ogarotodoanuncio2348]

É incrível como sempre fico triste ao lembrar de que o Ryan se foi, parece que perdi um amigo da escola na qual me acompanhou por diversas etapas da minha vida, sua voz trás um sentimento tão bom que faz a gente repousar, relaxar, refletir, é o sentimento de tomar um café numa tarde silenciosa onde você não se deixa levar pelas preocupações, simplesmente relaxa. As coisas tão pessoais dele expressas em suas músicas se tornam nossa também a cada verso expresso na sua voz, e com tudo isso, suas músicas se tornam únicas, sua voz se torna única, nos faz querer abraçar e levar pra vida toda, mas infelizmente tudo um dia acaba 😞

I met low roar in the E3 2016 teaser. And the truth is that without the game, no one would know them, but still, the band has very wonderful things to keep talking about their songs and compare them with the game when they are not even in it. What I'm going to is that LR needs at this point a merit of his own, and not only remember the game every time we listen to his music, but also create a memory of them in our mind and not only think about Death Stranding, because although they We met them through Kojima, they also earned the respect of being heard and loved as one more band
