Things We Lost In The Fire (Vinyl 2LP)

Late to the party, but wow what a discovery this was when kranky reissued it last year.  It’s hard to believe I waited so long, but Low and many of the label's classics changed my perspective on music, finding that sometimes the albums that require the most patience can be the most rewarding. A slowcore burner of indie and ambient textures for the ages. - Hunter

The second Albini recorded and engineered Low album, Things We Lost in the Fire features such hits as 'Sunflower' and 'Laser Beam'. It showcases the unique balance between introspective beauty and celestial pop. Low have always sought to make music that can both swell the heart like a gospel tune and capture the amplified absence of a funeral parlour. It's difficult to imagine a more perfect expression of their vision than this.
