Songs For A Dead Pilot

Thirty-six minute six-song EP from this trio from Duluth, MN. They have three previous albums on Vernon Yard, as well as a split single with the Dirty Three. The careful unveiling of melody has always been Low's forte; with the new album the group adds the transformative factor that the blurring and merging of an eight-track tape deck brings to the recording process. Low have retained their patient song craft, riveting vocal interplay, and relaxed pace that allows songs to stretch themselves out. Keyboard drone, throbbing drum patterns, and waves of bass feedback are new flavors they've added to the mix, giving 'Songs for a Dead Pilot' a subtle, experimental fee.
