    The inevitability of failure in these songs and others drags the listener lower, achingly feeling for a bottom sinking deeper and deeper. Booker, though, is no nihilist, and hope sneaks into his songs despite the overwhelming odds.

    One can't help but admire Booker's big swings, and when they are this compelling, everything else becomes a moot point.

    Segal comes from underground hip-hop and Booker from retro-leaning rock’n’roll, but LOWER doesn’t sound like any of those genres’ past collisions. Instead, it takes the basic textures of rap rock—boom-bap beats, Deftones’ icy ambiance, the corroded shredding of “She Watch Channel Zero?!”—and fashions them into a new strain of beat-centric grunge.
