Bio
We are currently on hiatus. "Currently" may become "permanently." We aren't sure.

All requests through MySpace will be ignored. ......Selected press:........[Low Red Land's] ..Dog’s Hymns.. is more than a collection of songs; it’s an entire story, setting and mood spread over 11 tracks. The album manages to pick you up, throw you down and even dust you off and get you going again. It’s an album that gets under your skin and in your head and you love it for that...(From ..PunkNews.org... Read the full review ..here...)....This San Francisco trio excels at something few bands do well: melodic, driving, intermittently heavy rock. The combination looks ideal on paper, but in practice often reduces to formulas and predictable dynamics. Low Red Land, however, escapes cliché by expressing angst without whining and hope without entirely trusting it...(From ..The East Bay Express..'s "Your Daily Lick," by Nate Seltenrich. Read it ..here...)....A very full-sounding three-piece outfit from California, their slower songs sound like the Weakerthans’ faster jams and their faster songs rip with the passion of ever Polyvinyl band piled into a single broken-down tour van. Guitars bubble quietly and then leap into action, cutting through the songs like a razor blade, and the bass ripples smoothly in the mix for a sound that they can definitely call their own...(..Tony Weinbender.. of ..No Idea Records../founder of ..The Fest...)......Dog’s Hymns.. is an amazing representation of how dynamic and proficient Low Red Land is at laying down a sound that is at once vital and fluid, both essential and inescapably entrancing. The album is able to capture the raw energies of their live set while still projecting a product that is polished and full, thick with instrumentation and vocal treatments...(From ..The Bay Bridged..'s Best of 2008 guest blogs. Read the full review ..here...)......Like a posse of pissed-off high-school history teachers armed with amps and calling [out] lies cloaked in lore, the trio weaves earnest lessons into brutal roots-laced rock worthy of beer-drenched basements, outdoor barbecues, and the odd taqueria...(From ..The Onion A.V. Club..'s write-up by Andrew Simmons. Some day, I'll figure out how to link that up.)....The three-piece's new album, ..Dog's Hymns.., is frequently loud, chaotic, and attention-seeking, but, just as often, it is joyous and catchy.....Dog's Hymns.. demonstrates that Low Red Land is a mature and exciting group...(From ..West Coast Performer... Read the full review ..here...)....I will go out on a limb and say ..Dog's Hymns.. is one of the few records that I would truly refer to as a "cinematic triumph". No joke in the slightest.
