Retribution Gospel Choir - 2

Review by Andrzej Lukowski

The Retribution Gospel Choir represent catharsis, for both performers and audience. However, that’s not really the same as being a dynamic artistic force and prosaically speaking, 2008’s Retribution Gospel Choir debut already answer the question ‘what would Low sound like if they were loud?’ 2 doesn’t really alter that answer, and thus doesn’t quite have its predecessor’s impact.»

retribution gospel choir is a rock trio founded in 2007. the group features alan sparhawk on guitar and vocals, steve garrington on bass and eric pollard on drums and vocals. alan also fronts the band low with his wife, mimi parker, and steve also plays bass in low. '2' is retribution gospel choir's 2nd full-length and sub pop debut! eric swanson recorded these performances at sacred heart studio in duluth, minnesota, and matt beckley mixed the recordings at faux rock in sherman oaks, california.
