The album trawled a sombre and indelible beauty from America’s troubled waters, and struck a deep chord with listeners. The band’s 2008 self-released version of the disc spread like wildfire via word-of-mouth audience response, eventually attracting the attention of Nonesuch Records and Bella Union. Oh My God, Charlie Darwin was licensed, remastered, reissued and traveled the globe, sweeping the DIY minded Low Anthem along with it. From the ragtag house show hopping, MySpace friending, bar gigging circuits to the venerated stages of Glastonbury, Lollapalooza, Newport Folk Festival, and the BBC. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“At first we were pushing the album out into the world, but then at some point we passed a threshold where the album took over, and started pulling us along on its ride,” the group’s co-founder Ben Knox Miller said. “Suddenly we were trying to keep up with it.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA brief survey of late-2000s American popular culture offers no immediate clue as to why an earnest, and largely acoustic folk-rock album would so dramatically rise up from America’s underground - and perhaps no-one was more surprised by this than the band itself. “We definitely worked hard, and we had a lot of luck, but the response was overwhelming,” Miller observed. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“By the time our manager (Kate Landau) and labels (Bella Union and Nonesuch) came on board in 2008-2009 the scale had changed, and that was stretching our identity,” Miller continued. “We had been so idealistic and stubborn about doing everything ourselves. We bought gallons of house paint and printed all the album jackets on our basement floor. It was 12,000 Darwin records by the time we signed those deals — written, recorded, packaged and distributed by us and our close friends. Jocie coded our webstore and a location-targeted email service. Jeff made friends with the folks at the post office. They would give him a heads up when the lines were slow and he would bring in boxes on boxes of discs to mail out. I brought a silk screen to bar gigs and printed the shirts people had on their backs. The music was solemn, but everything around it was so fun. It feels like a different era looking back 10 years. People bought physical music. Direct to fan marketing was still a novelty. That stuff was really important to us. That hand touch in everything was part of our identity, but it reached a scale where, with the touring, we couldn't manufacture anymore. We were grateful to join these awesome labels, but it also felt like a bit of a capitulation.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo mark the album’s ten year anniversary, The Low Anthem and Joyful Noise Recordings are issuing a limited-edition vinyl pressing of the self-released original master of Oh My God, Charlie Darwin. Each record will be encased in a unique silk-screened jacket, painted by the band.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTen years on, Oh My God, Charlie Darwin still provides a captivating and emotionally resonant listening experience. Around the time of its initial release, Miller described the album as a treatise on “environmental decay,” “social de-evolution,” and “the death of morality.” One hardly needs to be reminded that these issues have significantly worsened in recent times. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“That record was about the sea levels rising, and the way blind power has programed our lives at the deepest levels,” Miller stated. “I was specifically thinking about Christianity and how it spreads algorithmically in the ‘survival of the fittest’ atmosphere of ideas, and how as Europe colonized the Americas, Christianity moved out like a virus into every crevice. It’s about the weaponization of morality.” \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile there are flashes of rock and roll clamor spread throughout Oh My God, Charlie Darwin the record reaches its greatest power during the moments of quiet reflection and longing. There’s a haunting and plaintive hymn-like quality to much of the material here. “It's bleak,” Miller suggested “but the songs have that homing quality of gospel music where there's the sense that you're out lost somewhere. You're here on Earth but your home is somewhere else and that's where you're going. There's that conflict in the record where it has no faith, but has that call home, or a call to somewhere else. It has a separatist, everything’s broken attitude.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe album’s unique lyrical concerns and rustic musical soundtrack engaged audiences beyond the standard market of pop music consumption. “The Darwin record attracted a lot of strange characters. Sometimes people who were not really typical music fans,” Miller recalled. “More off the grid folks and doomsday preppers than your typical Bowery Presents show. Some of those early fans never forgave us when we started using The Facebook for marketing.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe audience embrace of Oh My God, Charlie Darwin brought both possibilities and limitations. “That album gave a lot of people their first impression of us, and it became the thing that a lot of people wanted more of,” Miller offered. The Low Anthem distanced themselves from stories crediting the record for instigating a “folk revival” and Miller labored to push the band’s sound forward.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen listening back to the record now, Miller hears the rough edges of the group’s youthful urgency and inexperience. But he understands that those elements lend to the album’s appeal. “We were 21 and 22 at the time those songs were written,” Miller stated. “I hear us reaching for things that we don't understand. Maybe something happens accidentally that way. When you hear a sound that a band is not really in control of yet sometimes that’s the magic. Like a horse that’s not broken. It’s there for a moment, then it cleaves and splits. It’s a picture you finish.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs The Low Anthem continue to explore new sounds, Joyful Noise Recordings’ reissue of Oh My God, Charlie Darwin celebrates a step along that path. “In some ways the reissue is a bookend,” Miller reflected. “Our sound has changed. The people have changed. The people who haven’t changed have changed. For better and worse our success has been yolked to this group of songs. Ten years on we’re taking a moment to be grateful for that, and to revisit these songs — to see what's still there. It also closes a chapter. Maybe something in this completes an idea. Maybe this clears the slate for the future.”\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"The Low Anthem","offers":[{"title":"Limited Vinyl + Digital (10th Anniversary Edition, limited to 1000 hand-numbered copies on Electric Blue vinyl.

Opening song “Cue The Machines” begins with Alan Lomax field recordings of a choir in Genoa, Italy in the 1950s – the voices sampled and chopped into a skittering rhythm underneath merciless punk. “There’s a vocal style from Genoa called Trallaero,” explains Gat. “One can almost hear a similarity between the way they roll their R’s to the glitches of contemporary electronic and hip hop beats.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn “Medicine”, Gat is joined by the Eastern Medicine Singers, a powwow drum group from Rhode Island whom Gat first encountered at SXSW. “The first time I saw the Eastern Medicine Singers they were playing outside the venue just before we went on. I loved their music and asked if they wanted to improvise with us during our concert. We had never met before, and they immediately replied ‘No.’ I suggested that if they liked our music and changed their minds, they’d be welcome to join. By the second song they were hauling their gigantic drum inside and we started playing together in the middle of the room – two bands forming two circles, with the crowd around us – dancing, trancing, many in tears.” The album’s finale, a sound collage of different live recordings of Yonatan’s band that have been rendered into rhythmic juxtapositions – a brutal wall of sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUniversalists\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e is a conceptual and crafted snapshot of an artist evolving and experimenting, fusing the physical garage punk and freewheeling improvisational sounds of Gat’s past with elements of avant-garde composition, electronic production and the signature sound of his genre-bending inimitable guitar. Set to be released in the hostile political climate of 2018, the album is inevitably charged with a sense of confrontational urgency. While Universalists is indeed a provocative work, it goes beyond exploring the distress of our time.It not only reveals the distinction between cultures, but the complex similarities, expressing our shared need for musical ritual celebration – in any time and at any place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Yonatan Gat","offers":[{"title":"VIP","offer_id":53858011939126,"sku":"JNR256_Yonatan_Universalists_VIP","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/5451\/products\/albums-universalists-4.jpg?v=1530547053"},{"product_id":"brace-the-wave-vault-copy","title":"Brace The Wave (Limited Marbled Vinyl) (Vault Copy)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"section group\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col span_1_of_2\" style=\"vertical-align: top;\" valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"width: 100%; margin: 0px; padding: 8px 0px 6px 8px; background-color: #a9a9a9; color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif; font-size: 24px; font-weight: 300; line-height: 100%; text-transform: uppercase;\"\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 15px 0px 0px 0px;\"\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eRedeemed \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eNerve \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eMoving \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003ePulse \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eWave \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eLazy \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eBoundaries \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eC \u0026amp; E \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eRepeat\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"853\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rbfzo3VZdh4\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col span_1_of_2\" style=\"vertical-align: top;\" valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"width: 100%; margin: 0px; padding: 8px 0px 6px 8px; background-color: #a9a9a9; color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif; font-size: 24px; font-weight: 300; line-height: 100%; text-transform: uppercase;\"\u003eDescription\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 15px 0px 0px 0px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eHi, my name is Lou Barlow. This is \"Brace the Wave\". Here is my short bio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eOne of my first song writing attempts occurred in 1983- it is called “Lou’s Anxiety Song”, released by my first band, Deep Wound. The original title was ‘Pressures’, but the singer decided to scream “Lou’s anxiety song!!” at the beginning (his commentary on the overly earnest lyrics). The title stuck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eDeep Wound evolved into Dinosaur Jr. While playing in that band I began recording short songs on a baritone ukulele that I modified with heavier strings and flexible tunings. I called myself Sentridoh. My first solo LP ‘Weed Forestin’’ was a cassette that I duplicated and gave away. I was too bashful to play any Sentridoh songs for my slightly older, much cooler bandmates.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eI eventually started a band of my own called Sebadoh.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eWe gained some momentum in the 90s. And then in 1994, I started another band called Folk Implosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eBy the early 2000s, everything had crashed and burned. I was alone again with my 4-track and a basic knowledge of recording. I still had a ukulele and was most comfortable writing uncomfortable songs. I love the cozy self-delusion of the creative process. Finishing songs, making records and holding the finished piece in hand is incredibly satisfying. In 2005 I made my first official solo LP under my actual name instead of a made-up, nonsense word.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eAround that time, I sensibly began touring with Dinosaur Jr. and Sebadoh again which brings me to now… 2015.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eHaving moved back to Massachusetts (after 17 years in Los Angeles), I recorded ‘Brace The Wave’ in 6 days with Justin Pizzoferrato at Sonelab studios in Easthampton. Justin was the engineer for the 3 Dinosaur Jr ‘reunion’ LP’s. My ease with Justin meant I approached the sessions with focus and confidence. Songs like “Redeemed”, “Wave” and “Moving” reprise my early methods of tuning my ukulele down low and writing the songs during the recording process. Others like “Lazy” and “C+E” are traditional-style folk songs that I performed live in the studio. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eHere it is, “Lou’s Anxiety Song(s)” 2015, less fretful, still restless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e-Lou Barlow\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Lou Barlow","offers":[{"title":"VIP-Exclusive Vinyl + Digital (Limited to 500 hand-numbered copies on marbled pink \u0026 seafoam colored vinyl, one in every five copies includes original Polaroid 'selfie' by Lou Barlow.)","offer_id":53858051260726,"sku":"JNR168VIP","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/5451\/products\/albums-brace-the-wave-1.jpg?v=1478202826"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.joyfulnoiserecordings.com\/collections\/ps-vault-copies.oembed","provider":"Joyful Noise Recordings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
