"Low formed in Duluth, Minnesota in 1994, and have been exploring the possibilities of minimal, sparse, reverent 'slowcore' music ever since. The band is a three-piece, comprising husband and wife team Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker (guitar and drums respectively, with shared vocals), and bassist John Nichols. They have recorded critically acclaimed albums such as 'Secret Name' (1999) and 'Things We Lost in the Fire' (2001) before moving to Rough Trade for their last long player, 'The Great Destroyer' (2004). Low have recorded several Peel Sessions, including a live set broadcast from the 2002 All Tomorrow's Parties festival.<BR/><blockquote>"We had what we call a 'Mogwai Moment' during Low's live session, which basically means that when the music is so tender, fractured and quiet, the emergency DAT kicks in because the computers up at Broadcasting House think that there is dead air going out. I then had to rush out half way through a song, because the band didn't know what was happening on air, and politely ask them to stop. In front of the band, the audience, and John, this was quite embarrassing. That session was amazing, I still play the CD now."</blockquote>"^^xsd:string2
