Things We Lost in the Fire

Things We Lost In The Fire has songs that are lush ('In Metal') and songs that are naked ('Whitetail') and adds a layer of fuzz and distortion ('Dinosaur Act'). Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker's voices remain at the center of Low's music; Zak Sally's bass anchors the whole with carefully placed pauses making every second count. After five albums Low have moved beyond tags like "slowcore"; pace is not nearly as important now as placement. This double-vinyl version has a gatefold sleeve, with all analog production, and features two extra tracks (taken from Low's last UK single).
