I haven't felt this damaged by a celebrity death since Chester from Linkin Park. Like so many I was introduced to Low Roar through the reveal trailer of Death Stranding, but the first two albums are truly special to me. They resonated so well with me at the time I was moving away from everything I knew to start university, and wasn't always sure I made the right choice. Ryan's music gave a voice to that feeling of cold melancholy and insecurity, but also seeing light on the horizon. I hope more people will discover his music and realize what a terrible loss this news really is.
