I'm not entirely sure why the a-side here, "Sleep Song," is called an Alan Sparhawk solo track when it sounds exactly like Low and I'm pretty sure even has Mimi contributing backing vocals. Of course anything that has him (or them) singing on it is just going to sound like a Low song. Good track too, for the record.
The Charles Atlas b-side "Pondcup" is good but not particularly exciting. It's basically just some nice guitar playing and nothing else, a style I've never gotten worked up about but given the popularity of William Tyler and that ilk, seems like this would be popular if released today.
