On its second full album, Long-Division, the Duluth, Minnesota, trio Low moves further away from being a Galaxie 500 tribute band by embracing English post-punk influences such as Joy Division and the Young Marble Giants, especially on the songs that drummer Mimi Parker sings. The restraint the group shows in exploring its minimalist, somnambulant grooves is admirable, and for the right times-say, rainy Sunday mornings, or nap time on a snowy afternoon — this is the perfect album.
