Low just gets better and better. The band's fabulous pop music has always been as open to the possibilities of drone and repetition as to the cotton-candy undertow of classic pop's wall of sound. But the two tendencies have never come together as beautifully as they do on the group's sixth full-length. With Trust, the trio's dreamy molasses pop has a shimmery sheen and added vigor, thanks to producer and mad scientist Tchad Blake. His simple, tasteful, and full Phil Spector arrangements complement and never overwhelm. Industrial noise seeps through on "I Am the Lamb," while the banjo accents on "In the Drugs" are weirdly complementary. Trust is one of the most profoundly beautiful experimental pop albums since Psychic TV's underrated classic, Dreams Less Sweet. --Mike McGonigal
