ALAN SPARHAWK - White Roses, My God (2024)
White Roses, My God is a deeply personal and experimental exploration of grief, following the passing of Alan Sparhawk’s wife and Low bandmate, Mimi Parker. Departing from Low’s minimalist slowcore roots, Sparhawk uses vocoder-heavy vocals, drum machines, and synths to create an emotionally raw yet vibrant soundscape. Tracks like "Feel Something" encapsulate his search for emotional clarity amidst mourning, combining glitchy beats with yearning melodies. Despite its heavy themes, the album carries moments of joy and hope, transforming sorrow into something sonically adventurous and cathartic(Clash Magazine)(Under the Radar Magazine)(The Quietus).
