Nu-aggressor dying in designer has quickly doubled back on the expansive showing from last month's single release, "Evil Eyes". Offering a glimpse of the project's full range, shifting from melodic to menacing, "Limewire" embraces nostalgic hostility with a sound reminiscent of nu-metal's heyday - modernized to showcase a sound that is both fresh and familiar.
The creative outlet and vision of Rob O'Brien, dying in designer's latest presentation encompasses the versatility of the project, seamlessly weaving an emotional driven performance with instrumentation to match. Volatile and emotive, O'Brien's outing on "Limewire" underscores the conviction that carries over onto the track and into everything O'Brien creates as dying in designer.
Drawing correlations to the online phenomenon that pierced popular culture and wreaked havoc on so many PCs, O'Brien explains how the track is a metaphor for the damage we carry long after we initially endure an instance of trauma. ’‘LimeWire’ is about what people leave behind. The kind of damage that doesn’t just hurt in the moment, but rewires the way you trust, feel, and connect going forward. It’s about how connection today feels disposable, like downloading something just to delete it later. It’s not about healing. It’s about what you carry into everything after."
Further building out the universe of dying in designer, the launch of "Limewire" is coupled with the unveiling of a new animated series created by O'Brien in tandem with Animator Boi. The series serves as extension of O'Brien's far-reaching vision for dying in designer and will arrive as supplemental installments as each new track from the project drops. The series can be viewed - HERE
The arrival of "Limewire" as well as last month's "Evil Eyes" marks the latest era of dying in designer. Following the acclaim of 2024's Nobody's Happy. 2, O'Brien continues to forge ahead as an independent artist fueled by boundless artistic ambition and work ethic that is evident with every release.
"Limewire" releases wide July 9th. Pre-save the single - HERE
