A couple of weeks ago, I typed up the details on the new album due out from Low. The Duluth, MN trio's ninth studio LP (by my count) C'mon will be here April 12 on Sub Pop. Sadly I had no new music at the time to share... Until now.
"Try To Sleep" is the opening track for C'mon and a interesting departure from their previous efforts. The deliberate build opens into a sweetness and, dare I say, positivity that gleams through the band's trademark elegy. It plays like a lullaby with a tenderness that has not been seen from Low for some time. The restless lyrics could center on a person with a heavy heart who can find no rest or someone patiently waiting to take their last breath. In any case, the story is in the capable hands of Low, who flush the austere subject with warmth and humanity. "Try To Sleep" can be heard in its entirety by clicking the middle of the widget below. The download will cost you an email address, which is a definite bargain.
Preorder C'mon here.
