The eighth full-length from Minnesota's Low, and their second for Sub Pop. While these songs feature new elements (looped vocals, drum machines, etc.), and are thoroughly, radiantly contemporary, they remain undeniably Low's. Drums And Guns possesses the unique, subtle beauty and power we've come to expect from this band, but it's also profoundly exciting in ways that are easy to forget music can be.

User Reviews

   Adrian Bordeleau - St. Louis, MO, USA
In an act of creative brilliance Low has made a record that rocks as hard as "The Great Destroyer" while primarily avoiding its more conventional rock sound. "Drums and Guns" takes its intensity from loops, electronics and some monster-cool vocal production. Add to that some lyrics about war, violence and complacency and you've got one of the best Low albums yet.


   Andrew Mashburn - , ,
When The Great Destroyer yielded some songs that are slose to rock territory, I thought that Low may be on the verge of shedding their fierce minimalism. Drums And Guns defied those expectations, but in a good way. They use quite a bit of electronics to supplement the sparse drumming. As always the vocal harmonies are absolutly beautiful
