starvynth "In a way, Lo! are the kind of band that impress more with the density of their sound rather than its size. Metaphorically. Despite not being a long album, The Gleaners is a huge album."

Cheveu Miracle I had heard a few "catchy" songs before by Lo!, but never really went deeply into it. And then came this.
I like everything about this album, it's as simple as that.

Azza A range of sounds beautifully meshed together, it features some great dynamics in and around the crushing heaviness, excellent.

Darknight Here we have a band who have upped the ante and created the concept album for us all to follow and end tyranny across the scorched earth we call home. The Gleaners is absolutely awesome, sounds so wicked with styles from post hardcore, post metal and the amazing riffs of sludge metal firing from every angle, Lo! may have just created AOTY, they definitely have just laid down the gauntlet, go and buy this stunning record, you will not regret it!! Favorite track: The Gleaners.

about

The act of gleaning was a medieval practice where a lord or nobility would allow their lowest subjects to sift through the refuse of a newly harvested field for subsistence. Replace grain with truth and we ourselves are gleaning daily through media, relationships and our own myths to subside; hoping to harvest sense from the muck and mire.
