Retribution Gospel Choir Finishing New Album

From the Low e-mail newsletter:

"...Alan’s side project, Retribution Gospel Choir, just finished tracking new material with Steve Albini in Chicago for an upcoming release — more to come on that soon.  Best wishes for 2009 for you all."

Video of Low at the Knitting Factory in 1996

"Back in 1996, I was working as a producer, director, cameraman and lighting designer for Knit Media, creating live online content for the web. When one of my favorite bands Low booked an appearance, I jumped at the chance to produce and direct a live multicamera video of their performance."

"It’s about being so loud and so relatively ferocious that nothing hurts anymore."

I don't quite understand what a "Daytrotter session" is, but it recently featured some free songs by Retribution Gospel Choir and a strange and somewhat insightful essay on Alan Sparhawk. Cheers.

Retribution Gospel Choir - Europe, 2008

During an April 2008 European tour archive.org contributor, _tunic_ recorded three of Retribution Gospel Choirs' shows at Paradiso, Amsterdam, Netherlands on April 22nd, STUK in Leuven, Belgium on April 23rd and ZAKK in Düsseldorf, Germany on April 24th. The recording quality varies and the set lists are similar although these shows are worth a listen by fans of RGC live. Below are links to audio and photos from the three performances.
