Stockholm based duo LOW-RES deliver uptempo pop tunes influenced by 90s ambient guitars and analog synthesizers with a slap of addictive Post-Punk earworms that set them apart from their peers. They released their debut in 2021 with the full-length album Varför and are now following this up with a new full-length record called Därför, dropping 5th May via Adrian Recordings.
LOW-RES’ new album contains all the same power and captivating post-punk textures they are best known for. Däför is brimming with a raw and driven aesthetic that flows elegantly between their electronic and organic element. Made up of eleven songs, Därför drags you in, one by one, to a parallel universe where music from bygone eras, like krautrock, early electronic pop/rock and psychedelia, are alive and well and sounding as fresh as ever in a modern-day Sweden. It’s a solid mixture of great noise.
LOW-RES said of the album release: “‘Varför’ and ‘Därför’ belong together. Both records were written in the same vein and with the same approach: fast, creative and with many collaborations that colour the expression. We have a lot of fun making music and it works as an antidepressant. We just heard the term Art Therapy and that pretty much sums up why we do this.”
Both Varför and Därför will be bound together on a vinyl release combining the two albums into a double album. This will also be released on the 5th May and can be pre-ordered now and you can grab and exclusive stream of Därför below.
