Low - Double Negative [Tidal](2018)

Post image

I’m really not sure about this. Low going all electronic noize with hyper-processed/distorted vocals just hasn’t got me feeling the love.

I usually love this stuff but Low doing Eraserhead just isn’t right. There are some joyous/harmonious Low moments but these are scarce.

While it’s got all of the accolades from the music press I’m giving it a miss.

Thursday’s difficult record, “Swans - Seer”, was like listening to Danny Kaye in comparison to this.

This record just shouldn’t work. News Flash: Low, the protagonists of slowcore, embrace abrasive percussive elements and discordant organ textures. What it does uphold though, is the wonderful solo and harmonised voices of Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker.

The relevance of this album is obvious. It’s a simple little record of Low doing Christmas stuff. Essential themed Slowcore.
