| | Crutch Music Review: Tiger Saw - Gimme Danger, Gimme Sweetness |
 | | Their second album of saccharine, pollyannaish slowcore (a genre epitomized by Low, whose sometime-collaborator Marc Gartman contributes lap steel to this record) is an ingenuous platter of minimal jazz, waltzes, and indie-pop, conveyed via mild vocals, airy acoustic guitar, strings, pianos, horns and organs. |
 | | It seems like Tiger Saw wants to push against the acceptable limit of cloying sweetness; unfortunately, they cross the line more often than not. |
 | | The melodies are overarchingly pleasant lullabies, but it’s apparent from the first lyric, “Gimme danger, gimme sweetness / Will you love me to pieces?” that Tiger Saw are gentle souls conveying logics unaligned with the world we know. |
