While I continue to marvel at the new Mountain Goats and Twilight Sad albums (reviews coming soon, I promise), I've also been enjoying a fantastic audience recording of a recent Low gig.

The gig took place just a week ago and contains a brand new track. Alan Sparhawk recently said that he had re-evaluated his back catalogue and this is evidence of that. After all the studio trickery pokery of their last album, Low are back to making raw spine-tingling music again.
Kicking off with a stunning 10-minute version of 'Shots and Ladders' from 'Trust' and featuring an incredible rendition of 'When I Go Deaf' and some white-hot electric guitar in the intro to 'Canada', this is the sound of a band going back to doing what they do best. Incredible tension, power and beauty, one of the best bands in the world, sounding supreme.
