Revival of the fittest

By MATT PARISH  |  June 8, 2009

And the re-release? Prstyowsky says that Nonesuch gave them the opportunity make some changes — cut a track, add a track, edit things they were tired of hearing — but that these ended up being subtle. "It's its own chapter, so nothing else really fit. We ended up just moving one track."

Over the long, packed-solid road trip of the coming months, the Low Anthem's perspective is bound to change some more. But by then they won't be looking back. They've got more than 20 new songs ready to go, and a new bout of recording is just around the bend. "We just need to figure out what the new songs are saying," Prystowsky says. "Where the story is, that kind of thing. You can see it, like we're pregnant. So don't worry, a new one is on the way."

THE LOW ANTHEM + ANAÏS MITCHELL | Brattle Theatre, 40 Brattle St, Cambridge | June 18 at 9 pm | $15 | 617.876.4275 or www.worldmusic.org

    Everybody loves a tidy ending. Episodes of Seinfeld , fireworks finales, a sturdy hem at the base of a pant leg — these things give us faith that the designer knew what he was doing.

    Inside the dusty corner room of a dungeon-like warehouse basement, Karl Giesing dumps out a bag full of pedals, samplers, grimy cables, and homemade synth boxes. Their functionality seems questionable.

    On the Black Heart Procession’s first visit to Boston, back in ’98, the duo hunched on chairs at the Middle East downstairs surrounded by equipment — keyboards, guitars, a musical saw, an array of percussion.
