This band can do no wrong, really.

I am completely blanking on the name of the Low song-by-song blog, anyone remember it?

two years pass...
two years pass...

something about early low is hitting me hard lately, like it hasn't in several years

Karl Malone, Monday, 6 March 2017 22:21 (nine years ago)

Same!!

Evan, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 01:02 (nine years ago)

Classic.

Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 01:52 (nine years ago)

"words" is a perfect first song first album statement.

that's not my post, Tuesday, 7 March 2017 07:56 (nine years ago)

one year passes...

You know that there is a part of Low that just wants to record an album where they croon "You're gonna die..........." over and over again for 40 minutes.

scott seward, Wednesday, 30 May 2018 17:21 (eight years ago)

You could play "Shots and Ladders" 5 times in a row and achieve the same result tbh

Simon H., Wednesday, 30 May 2018 17:47 (eight years ago)

Sometimes I can't handle "Pretty People" because it occasionally sounds like Low in self-parody mode, now I'm imagining it running 40 minutes.

Tim F, Wednesday, 30 May 2018 17:50 (eight years ago)

new album double negative out in september, produced by b.j. burton

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Monday, 11 June 2018 18:03 (seven years ago)

Press release uses the terms "abrasive" and "defiant." fun!

Simon H., Monday, 11 June 2018 18:06 (seven years ago)

Also, that has to be the ultimate Low album title

Simon H., Monday, 11 June 2018 18:10 (seven years ago)

Low - Fun!

Evan, Monday, 11 June 2018 18:11 (seven years ago)

lol

Simon H., Monday, 11 June 2018 18:18 (seven years ago)

If "abrasive" and "defiant" mean "sounds like [their best album] 'Drums and Guns'" I'm very in.

Soundslike, Monday, 11 June 2018 19:07 (seven years ago)

It sounds like it's a noisier, tighter version of the last album.

Simon H., Monday, 11 June 2018 19:10 (seven years ago)

alan was rocking this incredible disintegrating guitar tone when i saw them a few months back, can't wait to hear that on record

diamonddave85​​ (diamonddave85), Monday, 11 June 2018 19:27 (seven years ago)

like the classic Neil Young jet engine guitar sound?

StanM, Monday, 11 June 2018 20:01 (seven years ago)

close to dead man but instead of letting the notes ring, they crumble

diamonddave85​​ (diamonddave85), Monday, 11 June 2018 21:02 (seven years ago)

Has the album been announced? They seem to have disappeared from the Sub Pop website. Looking forward to the Leeds show next week. I have a spare ticket if anyone's after one.

michaellambert, Monday, 11 June 2018 22:36 (seven years ago)

only via this listing AFAICT

Simon H., Tuesday, 12 June 2018 01:40 (seven years ago)

hope this is as great as The Great Destroyer/Trust/Secret Name/Things We Lost In The Fire because nothing they have done since those has been as compelling imo

Dan S, Tuesday, 12 June 2018 02:05 (seven years ago)

I'm a little sad it doesn't seem like we're ever getting a Mimi solo album as I seem to imagine Alan teased quite a long time ago. (Though for anyone who hasn't heard it, his Solo Guitar is a neat bit of soundscaping.)

Simon H., Tuesday, 12 June 2018 02:13 (seven years ago)

first 15 mins of the new album:

matt h, Tuesday, 12 June 2018 11:51 (seven years ago)

holy shit @ glitch ghost Mimi!

Simon H., Tuesday, 12 June 2018 13:14 (seven years ago)

oh good this sounds like autechre

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Tuesday, 12 June 2018 13:20 (seven years ago)

I really hate to make this comparison ever but this is sounding very Kid A and I'm into it

Simon H., Tuesday, 12 June 2018 13:24 (seven years ago)

it's amazing that The Invisible Way was only two albums ago lol

Simon H., Tuesday, 12 June 2018 13:25 (seven years ago)

aoty probably

flamenco blorf (BradNelson), Tuesday, 12 June 2018 13:25 (seven years ago)

:D

whoa

diamonddave85​​ (diamonddave85), Tuesday, 12 June 2018 15:02 (seven years ago)

Very excited for this. I thought that Ones and Sixes was a great look for them (especially the colder parts like the first two tracks and "DJ") and am pleased that they seem to have travelled some distance further down that road.

"Quorum" really does sound like Autechre.

Tim F, Tuesday, 12 June 2018 17:52 (seven years ago)

Going #fullBrad here but aoty. This is amazing.

lbi's life of limitless european glamour (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 12 June 2018 18:42 (seven years ago)

I've listened to these 4-5 times and I'm just mad we have to wait three months for the rest

Simon H., Tuesday, 12 June 2018 18:43 (seven years ago)

For real.

lbi's life of limitless european glamour (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 12 June 2018 18:47 (seven years ago)

Didn't see this coming at all. Awesome music.

Jeff W, Tuesday, 12 June 2018 19:07 (seven years ago)

There's video too, suitably glitchy

Jeff W, Tuesday, 12 June 2018 19:12 (seven years ago)

Sub Pop is offering a pretty good deal for a bundle of their last 5 LPs.

Simon H., Tuesday, 12 June 2018 19:12 (seven years ago)

holy shit these new songs are amazing. i'm so gutted that the local show for me (leeds, UK) is sold out... though i did see them in LA last year, and briefly met alan. he was sweet.

meaulnes, Tuesday, 12 June 2018 21:05 (seven years ago)

wowowowowowow

excellent video too

obviously DLC (Karl Malone), Tuesday, 12 June 2018 22:20 (seven years ago)
