Sep 15, 2018Terrible album. Sometimes I wonder why people rage about elitist music critics that have no sense of what people actually want to listen to. Then you hear a piece of well reviewed trash like this and you can understand what people are talking about. Absolute unlistenable garbage.

Sep 19, 2018While the first half of this album is all but completely unlistenable, if you stick with it the songs on the back half range from horrendous to merely awful. This is not art. This is often not even music. This is pure pretentiousness.

Sep 28, 2018The songs not only feel like they exist in a vacuum, but that they demand the listener create one too. It’s an important and serious album because it forces you to experience it as one, it asserts itself as the only thing you can concentrate on.

The WireSep 21, 2018Double Negative stands alongside Yo La Tengo’s There’s A Riot Going On as a painfully honest expression of what it’s like to live in a post-truth country and have to call it your own. [Oct 2018, p.58]

Sep 19, 2018Double Negative is a brave and thoughtful collection of songs that lets Low's beating heart scream for its life against a world without compassion, and if it isn't much fun, in 2018 it's truly necessary.
