Low - Things We Lost In The Fire (2001)
A very sad day today with the passing of Mimi Parker. I was totally taken by surprise and devastated to hear of her losing her battle with Ovarian Cancer at just 55.

0 commentsAnother faultless record from these Duluth-based, slow-core pioneering Mormons. (Incidentally, Duluth was also the birth place of one Robert Zimmerman). Recently picked up by Sub Pop records this is a major leap forward in instrumental layering and accessibility.
0 commentsI’m really not sure about this. Low going all electronic noize with hyper-processed/distorted vocals just hasn’t got me feeling the love.
0 commentsThis 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.
0 commentsThe relevance of this album is obvious. It’s a simple little record of Low doing Christmas stuff. Essential themed Slowcore.
0 commentsThe themes were: One Word Songs. (Bonus points if led by a woman singer), Bonus Track
