New long review of ICLIH on Pitchfork

[Mike Cross]

Pitchfork's weekly feature 'The Sunday Review' featured I Could Live in Hope on March 15: https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/low-i-could-live-in-hope/

"Each Sunday, Pitchfork takes an in-depth look at a significant album from the past, and any record not in our archives is eligible. Today, we revisit the epiphanic debut album from the Duluth slowcore band whose fragile, insistent sound was entirely its own from the beginning."

[Charles Curtis]

Thanks for this.

The piece includes a link to a nice live recording from 1993.

There are several versions of the same show in the Live Music Archive, but I haven't listened to them to compare.
