What people are saying about Double Negative
“This ranks alongside the likes of Anselm Kiefer and Cormac McCarthy as a document of contemporary social collapse, and as such is the most important, devastating album of the year.” [5/5] – The Guardian
“…It is extraordinary that Low is doing such challenging, relevant work 25 years into their career.” [Best New Music, 8.7/10] – Pitchfork
“Not since Bon Iver’s reinvention or even Radiohead’s Kid A have a relatively mainstream band made such an assured volte-face, willfully pushing their audience away while they revisit, remake and remodel the tension that made them so very precious in the first place. Fierce and beautiful.” [5/5, “Album of the Month”] – Record Collector
“For a band so often defined by apparent strictures on its sound, Low has proven incredibly versatile. Throughout a catalog that spans 12 studio albums, another dozen or so EPs, a Christmas record that’s justly become a classic, and countless one-offs, it’s upended its formulas constantly while still sounding unmistakably like itself. On the new Double Negative, those patterns hold true amid Low’s most radical reinvention yet.” – [First Listen] – NPR
“With their latest, Double Negative, they’ve gone full-on impressionistic, smearing and distorting sounds to create beautiful songs from distant moments playing on a radio that’s fallen down a wormhole.” – New York Times
“It takes beautiful things and destroys them, and it takes ugly things and renders them celestial.” [“Album of the Week”] – Stereogum
“Low have never made a record quite so jarring and jagged, but Double Negative pushes beyond their own catalogue. Low have made what might be their most relevant album, one that holds a mirror up to the world.” [9/10, “Album of the Month”] – Uncut
“This is the sound of Low finding extremity in a new, thrilling way.” [8/10] – Q Magazine
“It sounds as though the group are literally trying to convey the sky falling” [Cover feature] – The Wire
“As if galvanised by a world that’s once again collapsing, they’ve pushed their sound even closer to the edge of disintegration.” – Loud & Quiet
“This is the sound of Low finding extremity in a new, thrilling way.” [4/5] -Q Magazine
“Low are back with a vital-sounding, politically-urgent record that’s perhaps the best of their career.” – The Quietus
“A dystopian masterpiece.” [9/10] – CLASH
“The album marks an extraordinary point in the trio’s career – an album rich in darkness and in texture, finding Low in experimental sublimity, further reminding us that their range has only gotten exceptionally larger and better over time.” [9/10] – The Line of Best Fit
“With Double Negative, Low give you the tempest – the here, the now, the fear, the wonder – and they do it uncompromisingly.” [5/5] – The Skinny
“It is an astonishing album, cohesive but wide ranging, sometimes presenting Low as they were, more often seeing the trio forge on until guitars dissolve, words dissolve, flesh dissolves and everything becomes pure light.” [9/10] – Drowned in Sound
Double Negative is available worldwide now on CD/LP/DL/CS from Sub Pop [link here]. The album artwork was created by longtime collaborator, English artist Peter Liversidge.
