Low
by David Bowie
Dec 14 2022
Starts very poppy and then takes a synth-y dark plunge into the depths of a comedown. Not a fan of every track, but I do like how the more upbeat, jolly tracks create a sense of plummeting from a high into the low, cold melancholia of the second half. “Subterraneans” is viscerally depressing and beautiful, and left me sighing through the heaviness this song sends to my chest.
