notes
Low Tide is the nom-de-side-project of Honey White bassist Keir DuBois, who is often aided and abetted by his erstwhile bandmates. Low Tide first released the "Dive" E.P. in 1999, while Keir was playing bass for the Mojo Wire, and after nearly a decade in mothballs, the "band" has been resurrected to once again serve Keir's egomaniacal needs.
"The Weapon Of Young Gods" is the soundtrack to Keir's short fiction novel of the same name, published serially on the web in 2008, but you don't need to know the story to enjoy its soundtrack. The same echo-bass guitar that has fueled Honey White's "The Lightning Rod" now also powers an album's worth of instrumental, ambient post-rock, but Keir also got crucial help from Honey White skinsman Bill Fedderson and HW guitarist/abstract sonic genius Brian Wolff.
Some points of reference include Lanois/Eno, Tortoise, the Mermen, Explosions in the Sky, Neil Young's "Dead Man" soundtrack, and Nathan Johnson's "Brick" soundtrack.
