New Low is a 2010 independent American romantic comedy film written, directed, produced, and edited by Adam Bowers, who also stars in the film along with Jayme Ratzer, Valerie Jones, and YouTube personality Toby Turner. It premiered January 23, 2010 at the Sundance Film Festival.
Wendell, a neurotic, aimless twentysomething, struggles to figure out which girl he really belongs with: Joanna, the best girl he's ever known, or Vicky, the worst. His friend Dave helps him sort through his thoughts as Wendell discovers not only whom he should be with but who he truly is under all that neurosis.
New Low has received mostly positive reception. Variety called the film "hilarious" and said it "smells like a cult hit."
The Orlando Sentinel rated it, "3.5 out of 4 stars."
Independent Film Quarterly said, ""Easily containing some of the best film writing and dialogue over the past few years, New Low looks and feels like a Woody Allen-penned script filtered through a Slacker-era Richard Linklater visual sensibility."
"New Low" is a song from musical ensemble Middle Class Rut from their 2008 Extended Play Red and their 2010 album No Name No Color. The song peaked at No. 12 on the Billboard Rock Songs chart and No. 5 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart.
Come on follow me?
I will run straight home
When i can't be true (betray you)
To you i turn to go
Say you wanna be in my shoes
You must be crazy
Say you wanna be in my shoes
Well you must be crazy
Chorus (x3)
We are reaching a new low
Come on shake me down
And i will run your drug
I don't want to sleep alone
I wanna sleep in your bunk
Tell me you are not forgotten
Tell me you are not forgotten
Tell me are you feeling rotten now?
Tell me you are not forgotten
Tell me that you want it and how
Tell me are you feeling rotten now?
