    Slowness doesn’t surrender its wonders easily. But when it does, and there’s no guarantee it will for everyone on every listen, it can be perfect.

    By the time the closer, Swam Out, heads into its grand, sweeping coda, you’ll be entranced.

    Slowness is not as instantly catchy as Outfit’s previous releases, but this should not deter listening from beginning to end; on the contrary, the record demands it.

    While there are bands who share common ground with Outfit--These New Puritans, Hot Chip, Junior Boys--the appealing niche they’re easing into bodes very well for album three.

    Slowness is a competent follow-up, if only barely less interesting than Performance.
