    Great vocals but sparse throughout the album. A bit too discordant for my taste with distorted guitar and keyboard work. I started listening and wondered if I blew my speakers. My suggestion it may sound better in an altered state.. Had to disagree with the critics on this one.

    HEY WHAT is equally thrilling for the way they now sound impressively eloquent using it. If last time was learning and pushing towards a necessary change, HEY WHAT simply is living a different way, channeling the disarray of their noises and our world into something beautiful and moving, all the stronger for any fractures, cracks and fuzz.

    As elegiac, brutally minimalist, silent and hymnal, disturbingly open and ultimately rewarding as before. [Oct 2021, p.77]

    In 2021, Low aren’t merely playing rock music gently and slowly: now they’re attempting to rewrite the language of the genre.
