Retribution Gospel Choir's return: a little Alan Sparhawk, a little Britney Spears
Article Tools
Low frontman Alan Sparhawk's notably noisier, faster, and catchier side project Retribution Gospel Choir will follow up its 2008 self-titled debut on January 26 when it releases 2. The album, which marks the band's jump from Mark Kozelek's Caldo Verde Records to Sub Pop, was recorded in Duluth and mixed by Matt Beckley, an L.A. producer whose credits include Britney Spears and Paris Hilton. You'll get no wisecracks from us; the combination of shiny Top 40 production and Sparhawk's grungy, visceral guitars is intriguing to say the least.
