Retribution Gospel Choir performs in The Current studio
by Bill DeVille and Retribution Gospel Choir
March 21, 2012
Duluth native Alan Sparhawk has proven that volume doesn't have a limit. His assembled team under the guise of Retribution Gospel Choir provides a striking stylistic departure from the songs he has helped compose as a member of Low. Driving guitars wash over slow-churning rock anthems — it's the perfect way to decompress after a long day.
The band just released a new EP called The Revolution for free through influential Seattle label Sub Pop. It sees them embarking in a new direction — almost retro-tinged. Characteristically short and sweet, the collection of songs blast by but leave a solid impression.
Songs performed: "Feel It, Superior," "Maharisha," "The Stone," and "Take Your Time"
