Slow (stylized; SLOW) is the fourteenth studio album by Starflyer 59. Tooth & Nail Records released the album on June 17, 2016. Tim Sendra writes, "Since the album is so short, and since he does try to be something else, it makes for one of the least satisfying of Starflyer 59's many albums

Slow, so slow I want it slow So slow. Slow, so slow I want it slow So slow. The lead-off track to the Starflyer 59 album of the same name, Slow condenses 20 years of Jason Martin’s marriage into three minutes. It’s a song about me and my wife taking it as literal as possible, he said in an interview with NPR. I just can’t believe how fast time has gone by.

Like most of the recent Starflyer 59 albums, 2016's Slow is a warm blend of all the styles Martin has latched onto over the years, mixed together and boiled down to something instantly familiar and reassuring. It's mostly built around easygoing introspective songs that see Martin exploring his station in life (happily married with kids and a minivan, pondering his place in the music world) in a kind of bemused, almost weary fashion.

Starflyer 59 is quite simply a treasure of a band. While they won't ever really do anything unexpected, they will always meet or exceed expectations, as their latest album shows. And that makes it a highly refreshing, highly enjoyable (and even thoughtful) listen. While having familiarity with Starflyer's past will make it easier to appreciate all Slow has to offer (since it is such a retrospective album), no new fan would really miss a beat jumping headfirst into the veteran band's 14th studio project.

Exclusive discount for Prime members. Sample this album Artist (Sample). Over 20 years and they've never put out a bad album. Not even a mediocre album. That was the case with this album. Please never stop making music.
