Background and composition

Шаблон:Listen

A reaction to the abrasiveness of alternative rock in the early 1990s, when grunge had reigning popularity, Low "eschewed conventional songwriting in favour of mood and movement."[1][2] Influenced by Brian Eno and Joy Division, the band, working with long-time producer and New York underground mainstay Mark Kramer, favored slow-paced compositions, a minimum of instrumentation and an economy of language.[3][2][4][5]

Reception

Шаблон:Album ratings I Could Live in Hope received generally positive reviews from contemporary music critics. Writing for the Chicago Tribune, Greg Kot felt that "its heavy-lidded drama creeps by in all-enveloping slow motion" and called it "the best record made for those dreary, nothing's-going-on-and-I-want-to-crawl-into-a-hole afternoons since Galaxie 500's debut."[6]

Legacy

Featuring an "unprecedent pace in the then-flowering underground,"[2] I Could Live in Hope helped to birth the genre known as slowcore, which encompassed acts from Bedhead to Codeine throughout the 1990s.[4]

Pitchfork placed I Could Live in Hope at number 49 on its 1999 list of the best albums of the 1990s.[7] The same year, critic Ned Raggett ranked it at number 37 on his list of "The Top 136 or So Albums of the Nineties" for Freaky Trigger.[8] In 2004, the album was included in Les InrockuptiblesШаблон:' "50 Years of Rock'n'Roll" list.[9] In 2018, Pitchfork placed it at number 22 on its list of the 30 best dream pop albums.[10]
