My favorite slowcore albums and wishlist.
Recommendations are appreciated.

RateYourMusic : The music of Slowcore artists is generally characterized by downbeat melodies, slower tempos and minimalist arrangements... One of the figureheads of the genre, Low, have claimed that their quiet and minimal style came about in part as a rebellion against the loud and aggressive alternative rock and grunge sounds popular in the early 1990s. The band is said to have reacted to noisy and inattentive audiences by turning the volume down.

Great list. I myself am quite a fan of slowcore. Here's a few more you could check: Spiritualized, Spacemen 3, Mazzy Star/Hope Sandoval & Warm Inventions, Shannon Wright or even Nick Drake. By the way, you can also check out the self titled album from Yann Tiersen & Shannon Wright, it's slowcore at its best.
