Things We Lost in the Fire (album)

Things We Lost in the Fire is the debut studio album by the American indie rock band Low Roar. It was released in October 2011. The album is characterized by its atmospheric soundscapes, melancholic melodies, and introspective lyrics. Prior to its release, Low Roar was the project of Ryan Karazija, who relocated from California to Reykjavík, Iceland, and began writing and recording the songs that would form the album.

The album's sound is often described as a blend of ambient electronica, post-rock, and folk elements. The use of reverb, delay, and other effects contributes to its ethereal and immersive quality. Lyrically, the songs explore themes of loss, isolation, and longing.

While not achieving widespread commercial success upon its initial release, Things We Lost in the Fire gained a dedicated following, particularly after several tracks were featured in the video game Death Stranding. The album's inclusion in the game's soundtrack helped to introduce Low Roar's music to a broader audience.

Notable tracks from Things We Lost in the Fire include "I'm Leaving," "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight, Tonight," and "Friends Make Garbage (Good Friends Take It Out)."
