Double Negative is the twelfth studio album by Low, released on September 14, 2018.

Double Negative is nothing but edges. It is an album with noise coming out of its wounds. It conjures the exact inverse of the sort beautifying restoration work done on the soundtracks of vintage films to remove thumps, hums, and crackles. Here thumps, hums, and crackles are piled on and the results are rarely short of stunning. Collectively, Low and Burton take an egalitarian approach. Creation and decay intertwine and texture is as crucial as melody. At times, Low’s already oblique lyrics are obscured by distortion; at others, vocals are sampled and contorted into alien sound transmissions, courtesy of synth-manipulator Steve Garrington. The composition is dynamic and riveting- Always Trying to Work It Out is gentle, classic Low, smoldering under reverb until it splits in half and pours out even more static-midway through, the song sounds like it’s frying.

The lyrics are oblique throughout – particularly given some of frontman Alan Sparhawk’s more colourful onstage pronouncements about the US president – but the music seems to short-circuit and collapse in on itself, with nothing working the way it apparently was supposed to. Opening track Quorum is produced in a way that makes it seem as though your listening device is on the fritz, the beautiful vocals repeatedly cutting out, the backing track consumed by crackling, fizzing noise.

Double Negative is an album that will endure for a long time. It’s a thrilling development that proves how Low continue to release music of extremely high standards, restlessly creative and never content to stand still.

Double Negative is a much more challenging listen than Ones and Sixes, but what makes it difficult also gives it a greater sense of purpose than the previous album. However, one failing that works against these songs is that the vocals are frequently Auto-Tuned and digitally fractured to the point that they're genuinely unintelligible (especially Sparhawk's), and while the sound of this album communicates powerfully in itself, the finer points of what Low are trying to say in these songs is sometimes lost

These days, there is a constant and seemingly endless supply of new music at our fingertips. You can never sift through it all, but you explore as much as you can, figuring out where everything fits together

Talk about Low - Double Negative


Simple fellow
I’ve been following Low for a while now. But this is the first time I see (actually hear) them create beauty in decay!! The sound is Kaputt but out of this deficit comes a great emotional cryout to the world. “Rome (allways in the Dark)” as the Dark summum of the album. This album pictures the world created by people like trump as a dark broken place. It makes the album more and more powerfull. It has touched me in my inner core! Soundwise I’ve never heard this before and it’s a bold move in music production. It predicts nothing but adventurous paths in the future!!
