Fun Stuff > BAND
Boredoms and Low,
JayJayD:
I would rather say: start where they started. I still like I Could Live in Hope best, but the later ones have been growing on me. As to why you should start listening to them: because they make really beautiful music. No band has ever risen from zero to near the top of my personal charts faster!
Imapiratearg: wtf, I think (That's How You Sing) Amazing Grace is one of their finest songs ever!

It's so boring. I agree that it is not representative of their sound, but damn if "When I Go Deaf" isn't one of the best songs ever.

Yeah, "When I Go Deaf" is a great song. I love "(That's How You Sing) Amazing Grace" but I can see why people would think it's boring. That's probably because all my friends tell me on a regular basis that I listen to boring music. I am okay with that. You really should listen to the rest of Trust. It has some of my favourite songs. I think you would like "Canada". It kind of sounds more similar to stuff from The Great Destroyer. Also, "Snowstorm", "John Prine", and "Little Argument With Myself" back to back to back is just amazing.
I can't really get into The Great Destroyer as much because the songs seem so crowded. The production seems almost intrusive. Low's song always seemed to have so much space. I think their songs need the room to navigate that space instead of being cramped.
So how 'bout those Boredoms, guys?
StaedlerMars:
I got into them through "I Could Live In Hope"
I love the sound.
What's this Boredom you speak of?
Scandanavian War Machine:
the only Low album that i don't hate is I Could Live In Hope
not only do i not hate it, i fucking love it.
i've never heard of Boredoms.
P.S. oh i forgot about Trust, that is a pretty good album too.
Cernunnos:
