Rest in Peace Ryan, such an amazing guitar player, you will never be forgotten😢
What happened?
@@samm8922 hes passed unfortunately. rest in peace
Absolutely. You could see it in his face. He truly enjoyed playing, and the music he wrote reflects that. You can hear the power of it just in this play through.
RIP man, the battles over. ❤
@@RocklobsterCodyagreed. He seemed like a genuinely good dude too. Based on what I know about his mental health struggles and the lack of information available on the whole, do we know for sure if…that’s…what this was?
@@fuyufuyndamn. I listen to the album everytime I work out. Didn’t really follow the band but that sucks
Ryan Siew influenced me to learn this song. Took 6 months and I was damn proud. RIP
Hes influencing me right now to learn I wish I could have seen him preform
Look how happy he was playing. Whata legend. Rest in peace.
Rick and jake: focusing and playing hard
Ryan: v i b i n g
That lead part is confusing as fuck to learn lmao. He barely repeats the same note pattern at all. It's a always some sort of change up.
Rest in Peace Ryan. You will be sorely missed. My heart breaks for his family and bandmates. Thank you for the amazing contributions to the world of metal
Rest in peace Ryan, this song means the world to me. Thank you for everything.
Criminally underrated musicians.... Definitely my neighbors favorite band at the moment even if they like it or not
Remember when Ryan was a little baby doin Periphery playthroughs
yeah mate. Time flies.
I saw him first time on his Critical Acclaim cover video. Goddamn.
This hits hard.
RIP king. The lyrics always spoke to me, but your skills were next level. You were already big, going to be huge. Really makes me wonder what was going through your head when you wrote 01:57
I can just picture Jamie and Dan watching behind the camera like proud dad's seeing their sons do a cool guitar thing together 😌
I know right hahaha
Especially Dan considering he’s the primary song writer, which I just find insane because he’s a drummer.
Love how all of the instrumental versions show off how well written your song are!
Honestly, I never realised how technical the lead part was to this song. They’re just amazing musicians.
I thought the same thing.
@@c4gob00m same bro haha. They’re insane 🤘
@@c4gob00m haha same dude. I wasn’t a huge fan of the song until I watched this and now it’s one of my favorites 🤷♂️
The Death of Me is easily the best album I have ever heard, period. Every single song is unique and has passion and life put into it. I've never been so proud to be a metalcore fan!
Sir, you said it all.
Ryan looked so happy here man, such a horrific loss. RIP you beautiful soul. A true pioneer and an amazing guitarust
I am once again reminded of a comment I saw years ago on one of Ryans covers, it went something like "he is great at playing someone elses music but i'd like to see him write his own stuff"...oh how I hope they paid attention
Rest in Paradise man, the only thing I ultimately regret is not seeing you guys live ONCE. I am hurt by the news, I hope he’s found peace and the band will as well. You guys are so talented, Ryan was certainly a god on guitar. All love and respect.
All the amazing nuances you hear without the vocals are incredible. Don’t get me wrong I love the song, but this is beautiful
Agreed, the chorus is insanely beautiful hearing all of it.
This very song, and this very clip is what got me into Polaris. Great band, great guitarists. RIP Ryan - from someone you never knew existed, but I knew you did.
Epic
Didn't expect to see you here man, love your content. Looking forward to seeing you hit that 500k mark.
Oh shit it's my Arab Canadian bro
Rest in peace Ryan... had to come and watch my favorite playthrough with him after hearing the heartbreaking news 😢
As someone that has primarily played only metalcore and prog tunes for years, 1:08 is still the most fun riff to play. So fucking good. R.I.P Ryan man what a talent
Ryan's riffs we're always no nostalgic. R.I.P Legend. 0:47
Thank you all for watching! The song tuned to Drop B and you can purchase the full album tabs here:

Had to come back to see his work.
RIP RYAN
1:30 I love this, they all (especially Ryan) just go "ooooh yeaaaah.." and bop their heads. But then again, who doesn't?
He looks so happy here… rest easy legend.. 😢
Definitely singing "Im a wreck, i confess, I am in so far above my head and ive been telling everyone that i cant bear the weight" during the chorus.
When I break! Do you Break? Can you feel it like your bones are achiiiiiing?
Even as we grow it hurts to know that some things never chaaaaaange!!
@@joedavies6364 YES.
@@joedavies6364 then jamie goes "SOME THINGS NEVER CHAAAAAAAANGEEE"
Fucking banger!
Ryan we will never forget the melodies and riffs you brought us. Forever in our ❤s we love you and Polaris gang. Stay strong boys 💪 ❤
That turquoise Mayones guitar tho 🥵
I know right
@@RickSchreder let’s play this on my ibanez gio
@@simaarr Depends what colour it is
This song lives in my head rent free and I’m so happy it does
Descansa en paz, tus riff me inspiraron a volver a tener Banda gracias por tanto Ryan 🙏🥺 te debo tanto
Rest In Peace Ryan. Your energy and your soul will be missed in the music world. Your playing has inspired me as a musician. My prayers go to your family, your friends, your band mates, and too all you’ve touched.
I've always come back to this vid. One of my favs. Different to watch now.. Seeing Ryan just grooving along. 😔
Honestly in tears watching this now… such an amazing musician taken far too soon… RIP Ryan 🖤
Thank you for sharing your amazing talent. Rest in peace brother 🤘
This will forever be one of my favourite songs ever written, it’s honestly unfathomable how you could put together such a literal perfect song, every riff, note, slide in this song is just absolutely perfect. You will be missed so much man, you look so happy in this video and it’s so hard to think how far you could’ve further come, considering the popularity of fatalism. Ryan forever 🖤
Ryan forged music that wont be forgotten. what beast! what a band! thinking of you Polaris and family.
Can’t tell what’s smoother... The riffs, or that FPS damn 😍
it's...50fps?
@@debidi1461 Correct mate. Video just looks super smooth I meant
Hard to watch these without tearing up man.. RIP Ryan, you were such a legend ❤
Another amazing work guys! Please do “all of this is fleeting” next.
I second this

I love Ryan's energy in this 😢
This is a masterpiece....that chorus is pure emotion. Polaris is the best band out there right now.
You see Ryan enjoying playing shows he almost cant get enough just by sitting.
Gone too soon. One of the best young guys left out there … R.I.P.
RIP Ryan ❤master of sick riffs
Craziest thing to me still is watching Ryan's old videos and now seeing him in one of my favorite bands. So crazy how time flies haha
He was one with his music… the smile on his face 😊
Ryan Siew Forever 🖤🖤🖤
so satisfying...😭 A huge thank you starting from the band to everyone who is working behind the scenes.
RIP Ryan you legend.
Australian Progressive/Metalcore are absolute top tier. I didn’t even realise there are so many bands that I love who happen to be from Australia. Polaris, Northlane, Alpha wolf, Karnivool, Twelve Foot Ninja, Dealer, Thornhill. Too many talented people in Australia
My favorite Polaris song.
Gonna miss you Ryan...
All the love to you guys🤘🏻
❤🤘🏻
Had to find it again. To pay respect. What a fucking. Massive. Loss. To all involved... Deepest condolences.
This clip. Watch Him smile. And Vibe. Beautiful.
And Priceless. 🔥💜🎸👈
such a great band. i love every aspect of polaris and i cant wait to see what they do next.
I just realised how interesting this song is guitar wise. Great work guys, looking forward to your europe tour next year!
Lockdown has resulted in Rick's beard looking gloriously epic.
dude lockdown was so long ago, it does not make beards grow faster either... fuckn hell
@@geoffpeters5802 r/whoosh
@@Pablo-zv6jd definitely belongs to r/whoosh. can't believe someone would be dumb enough to take that seriously.
@@geoffpeters5802 K boomer
@@geoffpeters5802 Wow comment police just raid this post. r/woosh indeed.
I discovered Polaris with this song. I discovered Ryan with this playthrough I used to watch everyday. He was clearly the soul of this band. Look how driven and passionate he is.. He had his own signature that will be forever missed.
I know it’s been a few weeks now but I just can’t get over it.
First time hearing this band. They sound real good. Reminds me of my times at warped tour.
Its a shame the young kid is gone so soon. Only the good die young. R.i.p.
rest in peace ryan, came back to relearn it.
Super clean playing and tone. Do a live rig rundown please. I know what it is but I’d love to see how it’s set up.
Hell yeah!
🤘🏻
I love that everyone is in the video and not separate like the Pray for Rain one. So much cooler seeing you all as one unit.
Big fan of these play throughs, would love to see something heavier or even something older too!
A tragic loss. Far too soon. Rest in Peace Ryan.
Polaris is one of the few bands that have the ability and mindset to write songs that will give you goosebumps and wanting to circlepit at the same time. The incredible talent of all of them is outstanding!
Really love how Ryan is vibing to the song while playing 😄
Great song, amazing playthrough and every time I come back to this I cant help but notice how happy Ryan looks here, what an awesome sound. RIP Ryan
One of the most dope songs I've ever heard
I love the music scene coming from AUS lately. You guys are the best of it. Love from USA.
And this is why this song was my top song for 2020! Man, you guys are absolutely incredible!! Keep up the great work!
It's so incredible how you can vibe with this song so much in its original form but then hearing this makes you appreciate the nuances that the incredible song writing brings out here. Absolutely fantastic song, thanks for this mates, keep doing them!
That made me so happy. Such a complete song from beginning to end
Thank you for spending so much effort on your music and brand.
Seriously, thank you, for being mindful of your work in what seems to be every aspect.
RIP Ryan 😢🙏🏼
5/5 Polaris songs most listened to in spotify this year.
Other than the solid tunes, Ryan's facial expression at 1:27 just made my day.
Been learning this song from a tab book I bought at your show. I am so floored that people can write such dynamic and soulful riffs. Every note in the lead is so perfect. It must have taken so much time to put this all together.
THIS IS SICK MAN
came here to watch it for a few seconds, but ending up watching the entire thing again. goddamn you guys just can't do anything wrong, can you?
1:13 Ryan has evolved (DragonForce style)
Oh my god that is amazing!!!! Love it
Hope you play all the album💕
Rest easy, Ryan.
What an amazing work. Love this performance.
Honestly my favorite song off the record. It’s just so perfectly written
this is fantastic! really shows off the talented songwriting behind it all
This is such an emotionally welcome surprise during this goddamn pandemic. Thank you guys so much for this.
This song is so important to me. Even without the words, it gives me goosebumps. God damn i love it.
Those riffs gives me joy
I still cant believe I got to see you guys play this live a week ago today, in Bristol UK at SWX! Everything from the vocals to your stage presence was PERFECT! I can't wait to see you guys again!
The amount of talent in that room is astounding
I got the tab book for Christmas. learning the drop b songs first then the rest. I'm so excited. first tab book I've had in 15 years or more and I'm so happy with it. highly recommend. support this guys.
Rest in Peace, you will life for ever in this songs. Thank you
Best song from the recent album :)
I love how Ryans just fuckin GROOVIN
beautifully played, one of my favourites off the album
My favourite song from the latest album. Thanks for sharing 😍
the riff masters are back
such an amazing tune and the melodies are awesome!
That chorus lick is awesome 😎
Need more of these, this is killer
Speechless. I don't know a band with better guitarwork and composition skills.
Ryan will forever be my fav guitarist
