    the low lows @ cyprus avenue, sun may 4th



    A rousing feedback-laden treat… Threaded with steel guitar, their cosmic leanings follow a host of unusual sidetrips, including a terrific cover of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' "Modern Romance". -Uncut

    "an interesting, clever and affecting album…Shining Violence's mood is atmospheric and ethereal. In singer Parker Noon, The Low Lows have an extraordinary secret weapon. When he emerges from the stew of noise his band are cooking up, the effect is stunning and frequently heartbreaking …if the thought of a mashup between Gram Parsons and Flying Saucer Attack is appealing, this quietly intriguing record may be for you." –Clash Magazine

    The Cocteau Twins meet The Jesus and Mary Chain somewhere in the mid west perhaps…sounds like it could be the soundtrack to 'Wild at Heart.' –Subbacultcha

    There's a varied line-up of instrumentation on Shining Violence, calling upon lapsteel and other such country staples as well as brass sections, all of which is put to highly effective use on the lovely 'Disappear', a distorted ballad that fuses Jesus & Mary Chain fuzz with Calexico-style composition. Elsewhere the psyched boogie woogie of 'Five Ways I Didn't Die' spells a ghostly hoedown, while 'Raining In Eva' sets a course for sheer slowcore beauty. Excellent. –Boomkat

    "The Low Lows' brand of psychedelic Americana sounds like a Raymond Carver tale baptized in the sweat of Galaxie 500 - dirty, woozy, and beautiful." - Limewire



    Selected Press for 'Fire On The Bright Sky':



    "a solid, lovely effort that sails on the back of strong songwriting and uniquely mournful vocals." -All Music Guide

    " Welcome the sadness, the pathos, the noise… a genuine opening of the human heart… [a] mesmerizing debut" - LA Times



    "A suite of slow burning, lo- fi wonder – not simply songs, but songscapes…a must for anyone who has ever lost themselves in early Willard Grant Conspiracy, Yo La Tengo, Tindersticks, Sparklehorse or Grandaddy. 'Fire on the Bright Sky, immediately sounds like a classic from that genre and will compete with the best work from any of the bands just name checked" (4/5). -Americana UK


    "Monstrously sad and brilliantly anachronistic... Three sparkling, slightly surreal rock icons that seem to have been constructed out of feedback and white noise. Like werewolves mutating, feedback drips from freshly exposed fangs... Then suddenly they return to us, playing pretty, remorseful songs about the carnage they caused..." -Los Angeles Weekly


    "Gut-wrenchingly raw and poetic in its intensity, The Low Lows creep stealthily and astound with the extent to which one album can be so considered and yet sound so un-contrived... Perfect. (5/5)" -Buzz Magazine UK

    "A fantastic audio experience...the most constructive use of feedback since Neil Young in the 1980's....slow, menacing but with a strange magic. (4/5)" -Maverick Magazine UK


    "The ghost of Galaxie 500 haunts the grooves of this record. The mesh of melody and noise, the languid grace, blissed out chord progressions and dark undertows. Think The Velvet Underground drinking with Big Star. These songs hang suspended in heavenly reverb. P.L. Noon's weary croak slides in-between the guitar storms and organ flashes. Restless, burnished, bruised and beautiful." -Mercury Moon UK

    "Dark, intense, vulnerable, bleak, fascinating, triumphant, delicate, powerful! Call it what you will, whatever it is, it's certainly not your average indie shoe-gazing fodder.(4/5)" -DJ Magazine

    "They have such rewarding textures, drenched in deliciously subtle reverb and gently caressing feedback. Psychedelic galaxy touching dream-… wonderfully (strangely) unique and very very beautiful. (single of the week)" -ORGAN Magazine UK

    Raskolikov, is that story about Glen Hansard, the pylon, and the man on the roof true? I suppose one or two bars of 'Falling Slowly' (the recent Oscar-winning song) would have had the same effect on the man without going to the trouble of shouting..! But, then, they were all only kids then - many years before all the glitz and glory!

    Personally, I've never met Glen Hansard or been near enough to him to gauge what his personality is like, but I'll take people's word for it if they say he's become big-headed. But I guess my own head would expand out into the stratosphere too if I had won an Oscar presented to me by John Travolta. Travolta's film work has been hit-and-miss, but he's still a legend..

    OPPENHEIM-WHO?
    With a style that combines the manipulative songwriting smarts of Daft Punk with the exuberant power-pop of early Weezer, Belfast-based duo Oppenheimer are set to restore the three-minute pop song to its rightful throne.

    Shaun Robinson and Rocky O’Reilly first met at an Icelandic electronica show and soon realised they shared a love of kraut-rock, synthesizers and soundscapes. Recording lush, multi-layered music was initially their escape from a rainy Irish winter. Writing summer-pop songs took their minds to other places, the neon sparkle of Times Square, the blue skies of California... they suddenly felt a lot brighter about their hometown. Oppenheimer was formed and they began to record.

    The band’s Northern Irish roots were reinforced by the endorsement of renowned DJ David Holmes, who loaned the band equipment and by Ash’s Tim Wheeler who has also collaborated with the band, appearing as guest vocalist on early track “Orchid”. Oppenheimer’s debut self titled album was released in 2006 by the acclaimed US indie label Bar-None. The band have recently shared stages with names like Tilly and The Wall, Architecture In Helsinki, Regina Spektor, Hot Chip and supported They Might Be Giants on a giant 50 date stateside tour. To add to this success they have also had songs featured on Ugly Betty and hip new U.S comedy Gossip Girl.
