    If you were born yesterday

In some of the more exciting news I've heard this week, everyone's favorite Slow-rocker's, and I'm speaking of Low, have announced plans to release a Christmas-themed 7'' and three European one off's which are being billed as Holiday shows. The 7'' features "Santa is Coming Over" b/w "The Coming of Jah," which is apparently as reggae as it's name suggests.While the very thought of this makes me...

Low - You May Need A Murderer
about 1 year ago

Stream the documentary, by Dutch tv/documentary maker David Kleijwegt, here.I found the pacing, the performances and the confessional nature of this portrait of Low (mainly Alan Sparhawk) really engaging. Mimi usually fades to the background unless she's singing in performance. Her candor in this documentary reveals her personality and her qualities that probably keep Sparhawk somewhat grounded...

Way out
over 2 years ago

It's been a long time since I've posted anything up here! Hi MOG friends. (Do I still have any MOG friends?)I've been real busy working on the next Roommate album and some other projects. I won't post any samples of the album yet, but I did perform one of its tracks on the U. of Texas' KVRX radio station the day after playing at the ridiculous circus that is SXSW, and I've posted the recording ...

    A Lifetime Of Temporary Relief (10 Years Of B-Sides And Rarities) [Box]

So...I've been listening to a lot of Low, lately...and in my searches I came across this amazing, amazing deal (this is not a pitch, I'm just sharing, keep reading). Low released "Lifetime of Temporary Relief," a box set of 3 CDs and 1 DVD collecting important tracks and rarities. Normally, it goes for about $35. Well, Buy.com has it for $10.98! In addition, they are running a special where if ...

Slowcore Week: 15 Years of Chairkickers Music with Low (part 2)
4 months ago

Things We Lost in the Fire (2000) The opening bars signalled the change immediately. The guitar part of 'Sunflower' chugs along, and Mimi's upbeat snare is only slightly on the slow side of regular pop or folk. Even the fact that the album opens with Mimi harmonizing from the first bar - a first - tacitly foreshadows an album less often about loneliness, "feel[ing] small" or "the times you wer...

When I Go Deaf
10 months ago

I love this song, this whole record in fact. Low's 'The Great Destroyer' album is one of those seminal albums in my life...it has just etched a certain space out in my soul...and I will take it with me for the rest of my life. I probably have 10 or 15 albums that have had that affect on me...maybe. So, every couple of weeks I like to share a track off of one of those... Low - 'When I Go Dea...

Low, "Drums & Guns"
over 2 years ago

Everybody’s favorite slo-core minimalists are back with a beautiful, intense, politically-relevant album called Drums and Guns, out last week on Sub Pop. Here’s a bit from my Dusted review: “Drums and Guns has a sparse, understated beauty to it, electronically-generated rhythms under otherworldly harmonies, and subtle violence buried in the words. It's dark, lovely and slow to blossom, but l...

'Things we lost in the fire'
over 2 years ago

During my battle with the flu this past week I took some time in between whining and watching bad tv to sift through the only two boxes of stuff that survived my house fire last July. I don't know, its like every time I go through it I will find that one magical photo or letter, something personal and specific and meaningful that I somehow missed the previous hundred times. Nothing magical was ...

Here is your Epiphany
8 months ago

For those of you who have not had the chance to attend a concert at Epiphany Church yet, RFC's own Garin Pirnia has written an article for Time Out Chicago offering a little insight to the church turned concert venue. I will then shamelessly use that article as an excuse to post some long overdue photos from the inaugural show with Low from last month. If you missed that show, well then unfor...

New Low Video - "Santa's Coming Over"
7 months ago

It's clearly the season for a lot of Christmas (and other holiday) songs, so brace yourself. Low's "Santa's Coming Over" gets us started on a creepier note -- the track's title and main sentiment sounds more like a warning than most Santa songs, which is reflected by (and refracted onto) the faces of the various cherubic kids and post-kids in this video. The song appears on a 7" of the same nam...
