you might need a murderer, someone to do your dirty work...


first of all, i love Low. seriously, slow music that is bare and stripped down to just raw emotion. and fucking sad too. i guess being a mormon from minnesota is depressing? who knew?

anyhoo, here's one of my favorite of their releases, the "Murderer" ep put out on director Cameron Crowe's Vinyl Films label as part of a short lived 10" series that never saw completion (though i guess stuff is still in the works, like 5 years later... too busy making shmaltzy movies?) this is an awesome ep. three songs. short. to the point. it has the best version of the song "Murderer" (which appears on "The Great Destroyer" as well) and the other two songs ain't bad either.

i must've listened to this ep like 10,000 times by now. if you like sad, slow music, then get it and cry yourself a river. or don't. either way.

Alan is very bipolar, so that explains most of the feeling in the music. Duluth is a pretty dark place too, however.
