What you say No-one has reviewed The Great Destroyer by Low yet. Give us your opinion on The Great Destroyer by Low. What we say This record left our Clint feeling happy. The Duluth rock behemoth Low have a new album out on Rough Trade. This time its produced by David Fridmann (Mercury Rev etc). I think you always have to give Low albums a  long while to grow on you. On first impression this seems as poppy a thing as they have ever done. It still sounds like Low though despite the use of increasingly noisy guitars. It kind of recalls Neil Young at times or the noisier exploits of Red House Painters and you can kind of imagine some of these songs being played on the radio - they are very immediate. Too immediate perhaps? As always time will tell...I'm pretty sure its a great album  - Low albums invariably are. What the label says: Tracklist 1. Monkey 2. California 3. Everybody's Song 4. Silver Rider 5. Just Stand Back 6. On the Edge Of 7. Cue The Strings 8. Step 9. When I Go Deaf 10. Broadway (So Many People) 11. Pissing 12. Death Of A Salesman 13. Walk Into The Sea

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
