Low share "Rome…" video

LOW SHARE VIDEO FOR “ROME (ALWAYS IN THE DARK)”

DOUBLE NEGATIVE OUT TOMORROW (14TH SEPTEMBER) VIA SUB POP

LOW TO PLAY BARBICAN, LONDON + OTHER UK SHOWS AS PART OF WORLDWIDE TOUR

Low have shared a new video for “Rome (Always in the Dark)”. Directed by Aaron Anderson and Eric Timothy Carlson, the collage-like video accentuates the intense nature of the track; an insistent march forcing its way through the din of the album with a damn-the-torpedoes tenacity.
“Let’s turn this thing up before they take us out…”  [watch here].

Low recently extended their international tour schedule in support of new album Double Negative by adding new UK and European dates for 2019.
The UK leg begins 29th January at Glasgow Tramway, and ends at The Barbican, London on 1st February. The fifteen-date European run will also include stops in Hamburg, Oslo, Cologne, Frankfurt, and Gothenburg.
These new dates follow Low’s previously announced 2018 world tour, which kicks off with a three-night stand at National Sawdust in New York City next week before taking in Bristol, Manchester and Dublin in October.

To make Double Negative, Low reenlisted B.J. Burton, the adventurous producer who in recent years has made records with Bon Iver, Lizzo and Francis and the Lights. Returning once again to Justin Vernon’s April Base studio in Eau Claire, Wisconsin (where they recorded 2015’s Ones and Sixes) Alan Sparhawk, Mimi Parker, and bassist Steve Garrington knew they wanted to go further with Burton and his palette of sounds: they wanted to see what someone who is, as Sparhawk puts it, “a hip-hop guy” could truly do with their music. Rather than obsessively write and rehearse at home in Duluth, Minnesota, they would often head southeast to Eau Claire, arriving with sketches and ideas that they would work on for days with Burton. Band and producer became collaborative co-writers, building the pieces up and breaking them down until their purpose and force felt clear. The album cover for Double Negative was created by longtime collaborator, the English artist Peter Liversidge.

What people are saying about Double Negative
“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
“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
“Gusts of white noise and inexorable bass thuds all but submerge “Quorum”; the 4/4 bass drum of “Dancing and Blood” wobbles on each impact as if the dance floor is buckling.” [“Quorom”/”Dancing and Blood”/”Fly”] – NY Times
“…gorgeous close harmonies whose startling clarity is only accentuated by the blackened textures beneath them.“ [“Disarray,” Best New Track] – Pitchfork
