로 (밴드)

로()는 1993년 미네소타주 덜루스에서 결성된 미국의 인디 록 밴드이다. 결성 당시 멤버 알란 스파호크(기타 및 보컬)과 미미 파커(드럼 및 보컬)이 남아있다. 이전의 베이스 멤버는 1993년부터 1994년까지 존 니콜스, 1994년부터 2005년까지 작 샐리, 2005년부터 2008년까지 맷 리빙스톤, 2008년부터 2020년까지 스티브 개링턴이었다.

로의 음악은 느린 박자와 최소한의 편곡이 특징이다. 초기 음악은 "슬로코어"라고 불리는 록 하위 장르로 주로 묘사됐으며, 1990년대 초 로와 비슷한 스타일을 추구했던 베드헤드와 비슷하다는 평을 받는다. 하지만 로의 멤버들은 이 용어를 사용하는 것에 부정적인 의사를 표했다.Sparhawk: "What's the cheesiest? Slow-core. I hate that word. The most appropriate is anything that uses the word minimal in it, but I don't think anybody's made one up for that."QRD magazine interview In another interview, Sparhawk claimed that a friend coined the term: "this friend of ours in a record store was always joking around ... and he said, 'I got it! You should call it "slowcore"!' ... It was a total joke, and I think I mentioned it at one of our interviews." "Interview with Low", Chord magazine, Jess Hemerly, April 2007, p. 44.
