		Low plays songs stripped to their bare essentials: slow tempos, quiet voices, powerful lyrics, and minimal instrumentations.
		Low, which could be described as "Joy Division meets Simon and Garfunkel", has four full-length albums and a handful of EPs and singles, first released by Vernon Yard Records and more recently by Kranky Records.
		Low makes music in which the spaces between notes are as important as the notes themselves, and perhaps even more so.

	Low Album Reviews
		Low are a three-piece outfit from Minesota, USA who deal in low-fi, understated, minimalist tracks with sparse accoustic guitar and string accompaniment.
		Low seems to be a very respected band among critics and people who love that kinda stuff, yet few people seem to tackle their music.
		Their brand of minimalism, excrutiatingly low volume and slow pace is something of an anomaly - even when compared to other bands that are usually lumped under the "quiet is the new loud"-moniker.

	Low (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Low's stylistic experiments are always sublimely understated and always conducted with the utmost grace and elegance.
		Low has always caught a lot of heat, in part for Sparhawk and Parker's religious affiliation (they're Mormons) and sometimes spiritually oriented lyrics, but more for their extreme seriousness, lack of irony, and general stylistic "unhipness." That comes from people made uncomfortable by the trio's unwavering emotional intensity.
		The album features the typically melancholy opening ballad "Sunflower" and the four-minute epic "In Metal," which begins coolly brooding, but then, like a sunburst, transforms into a soaring blue-skied pop song.

	Low: Things We Lost In The Fire ---Ink Blot Magazine
		Low is a trio based in Duluth, Minnesota, which is on the shores of Lake Superior.
		On the trio's first two albums (released on the now-defunct Vernon Yard label) they sounded like a Galaxie 500 tribute band, even retaining the services of G-500 producer Kramer.
		Since then Low have opened up their sound, broadened the textures and dynamics at there command, and even collaborated with drums 'n' bass outfit Springheel Jack.

	Low (album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Low is a 1977 album by David Bowie, widely regarded as one of his most influential releases.
		The album's cover is a still photo from the movie: the photographic image, juxtaposed with the album's title, formed a deliberate pun on the phrase "low profile".
		Low peaked at #2 on the UK charts and #11 in the U.S. "Sound and Vision" and "Be My Wife" were released as singles; the former reached #3 in the UK.

	ALBUM Low - Bowie 70s Chronicle
		Bowie once said that 'Low' was one of his faves from the 70s.
		When this album was released in January 1977, Bowie was recognized to have gone where no other artist had ever dared to go.
		'Low' was #2 on the UK charts and featured a marvelously crafted track, 'Sound and Vision'; as well as others of which he performed often in future tours.

	Low: Secret Name ---Ink Blot Magazine
		Low developed a style out of a reaction; tired of being browbeaten by legions of fast and loud bands, they played as quietly and slowly as possible.
		The trio's music is low velocity, low volume, and frequently as sad and low as the tearful individuals depicted in public service TV clips about getting help for one's depression.
		What sets this record apart from other Low albums is the combination of dry production (Steve Albini sat behind the board this time, whereas the first couple of Low discs were produced by reverb king Kramer) and relatively elaborate arrangements that feature shadowy keyboard shadings and a string section.

	Omnipresent Pharrell releases low profile album
		If you think about your favorite artists, you think about their singles, there is always that one song on the album that you love, that's what I tried to do.
		I tried to make an album filled with those kind of records that weren't meant to be singles but are very special to you.
		It's still going to be low key, It's not going to be the biggest thing in the world.

	CLUAS \| Album Reviews \| Low 'Drums and Guns'
		This album is much less dense than most of their preceding albums, feeling like it's going to simple float apart at any minute.
		In fact the eyes of the album are aimed inside, while addressing the audience at large, the "sweet people", creating an honest and strangely exhibitionist album that thankfully does not go quite as far as assuming itself to be symbolic.
		Although Low employ the same producer as in previous albums, Drums and Guns has a particularly home-recorded feel to it, or perhaps they took backwards step into the early 90s when production styles were moving out of the synth-infused eighties and into a much more sophisticated use of electronica.

	CD Baby: THE ALPHA CONSPIRACY VS LOW TECHNICIANS: Forward Rewinding
		low technicians is the new solo project of Brad MacAllister, who is the keyboardist and general studio gangster behind the dark industrial/EBM outfit, CTRL.
		Low Tech (by Low Technicians) [3:17] - A good song laid with some of the best singing I've heard in an IDM track with top notch filter effects on the vocals.
		The whole album is very melodic and tracks like “Subdivided” by The Alpha Conspiracy give it a melancholic touch but besides all this soft tunes the beat is never been forgotten: complex drum-patterns and break beats battle with complex loops and playful sound-arrangements.

	Low - Trust (Kranky)
		This is the first Low album that has caught me off guard enough that I required multiple listens to come to terms with its direction.
		Thus, when the album hits the emotionally intense moments, such as on "I Am The Lamb," the presence of faint, squalling feedback, the crackling of an amp cord shorting out, and other detritus add to the think, clomping rhythms and guitar haze to create a heavier, denser sound.
		Though the progress Low makes with this record seems, at first, counter-intuitive given their strengths in the past, the fact that the songs are so good keeps them from shooting themselves in the collective foot.

	CD Baby: VERVEIN: Vast Low Cities
		The best "vocal" album of the year, Vast Low Cities is also stacked to the rafters with lushly romantic pop songs that'll have this listener's ears glued to the speakers, hotly anticipating their follow-up.
		Occasionally an album has a mesmerizing quality that just pulls you in, safe and slowly at first, until all of sudden you rub your blurry eyes and realize you've been listening to the disc on repeat for a week.
		Listening to the first few tracks off of Vast Low Cities, the debut release from San Francisco quartet Vervein, it might be easy to characterize the record as a collection of dainty downtempo pop songs, enhanced by layers of ethereal female vocals that lull a listener into a pleasant, meditative state.

	David Bowie FAQ: Low (1977)
		From 1977 to 1979, Bowie collaborated with him and producer Tony Visconti on a triptych of albums - Low, "Heroes" and Lodger - known as the Berlin trilogy.
		Nick Lowe, a singer, decided that since the title Low was his name with the 'e' dropped, he produced an EP called Bowi.
		Although now regarded as a ground-breaking album and one of Bowie's masterpieces, the album was critically panned on release and greeted by a mixture of confusion and scorn by many fans.

	Low - Drums And Guns \| album reviews \| musicOMH.com
		So, fun as it would be to convince you that Low have gone all Eurodisco with a SAWesque backbeat and irritatingly catch choruses, of course they haven't and Drums and Guns is more of the glacial, minimal post-rock soundscape you'd expect from the boys (and girl) from Minnesota.
		Low are, in many ways, one of those does-what-it-says-on-the-tin bands, who sound exactly as you'd expect, like a gathering storm over a bleak industrial wasteland, dark and dirty and yet somehow incredibly chilled at the same time.
		From Alan Sparkhawk's low and drawn-out vocal over opener Pretty People, through the creeping electronics of Belarus, as he repeats the name over and over again, to the finger clicks and slowclaps that begin Breaker, this is a icily wonderful album.

	- David Bowie's Berlin Trilogy: Low, "Heroes", & Lodger (Site not responding. Last check: )
		David Bowie's experimental Berlin Trilogy of albums was initially released in 1977 and 1979.
		While this album does give way to some of the darker, more disconsolate overtones of the introspective Low, it is more spirited and vivacious than the afforementioned album, as evidenced by such tracks as the closing "The Secret Life of Arabia", and the title track ""Heroes"".
		This album is the most upbeat of the three, with the same strong, driving drumlines and complementary bass lines employed by the first two albums throughout.

		Secret Name’ was Low’s debut full-length record and was recorded by the Godlike Steve Albini, it slipped out after the glorious ‘Songs for a Dead Pilot EP’ and continues many of the themes they would later make their trademark.
		They tell me Low invented slowcore well I can handle that, certainly on this 1999 album they were slower than any other band I can remember at the time, the thing is that they make it so damn inviting.
		The much revered Low at long last deliver an exhaustive, majestic and thorough compilation of B-Sides, rarities, outtakes and demos from the past 10 years of their career.

	Low Flying Owls (Site not responding. Last check: )
		A number of surprisingly good descendents of Spacemen 3 and the shoegazers have surfaced in recent years, but of the crowded field Sacramento's Low Flying Owls might be the best songwriters and most sophisticated arrangers.
		The quartet formed in 2001 and issued their debut album, Low Flying Owls Take the Scenic Route, a year later on their own Americans Are Coming label, garnering signicant press on the West Coast.
		Low Flying Owls synthesize all of this into something confidently and completely their own that's equal parts dreamy ambience and swaggering balls-out rock.

	David Bowie : Low - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Following through with the avant-garde inclinations of Station to Station, yet explicitly breaking with David Bowie's past, Low is a dense, challenging album that confirmed his place at rock's cutting edge.
		Driven by dissonant synthesizers and electronics, Low is divided between brief, angular songs and atmospheric instrumentals.
		Though a handful of the vocal pieces on Low are accessible -- "Sound and Vision" has a shimmering guitar hook, and "Be My Wife" subverts soul structure in a surprisingly catchy fashion -- the record is defiantly experimental and dense with detail, providing a new direction for the avant-garde in rock & roll.

	Daniel Diaz LOW: Music for Basses
		An album of original compositions recorded by Argentinean bassist/composer Daniel Diaz in Paris, France between 2005 and 2007, performed exclusively on seven different acoustic and electric Basses.
		But it took me 25 years and 6 albums as a solo artist/composer to finally dare to release such a project.
		To explore the sonic possibilities and frequencies blend of my different basses (believe me, is not easy to build a clear-sounding 16 track master using just low end) some preliminary “sonic etudes” were put together, just to test the better sounding combinations (Fx/Instrumet/playing-technique/Preamps, etc).

	Betzefer - Down Low
		The album is well produced and Betzefer have a very definite and confident sound.
		Pantera and Sepultura are listed as their two main influences and this is shown a great deal throughout the album, but especially in the chorus of the signature track 'Down Low'.
		'Down Low' is a heavy album which incorporates influences from some very successful metal bands as well as adding elements of the band's own sound.

	a-ha : Hunting High and Low - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Further, it's a cohesive album with smart pace changeups, and it rarely fails to delight or satisfy a listener's need for a synth pop fix.
		The remainder of the album sees a-ha switching deftly back and forth between dramatic overtures and classic new wave keyboard motifs.
		The band explores decidedly European terrain in the theatrical "Hunting High and Low" and dances a pop waltz with the sweet "Living a Boy's Adventure Tale," coming across like a marriage between the Blue Nile and Alphaville.

		The recognition of The Kinks and their music by having some of their important albums remastered using DSD technology in a time where the format is still in it’s infancy speaks clearly for the band’s output.
		The mainstay of the band, Ray Davies, worked hard to create catchy songs and this album is full of them being the significant fruit of arduous reworks.
		That’s the allure of The Kinks and the draw of this album.
