For The Naked and Famous song, see [Laid Low (song)](/source/Laid_Low_(song)).

***Laid Low*** is the second [extended play](/source/Extended_play) from [Everything in Slow Motion](/source/Everything_in_Slow_Motion). [Facedown Records](/source/Facedown_Records) released the EP on April 22, 2016.

## Critical reception

David Craft states, "While every song on *Laid Low* is very good, things somehow never quite come together in a cohesive manner. This EP more or less seems to be a random collection of experimental songs rather than a consolidated project. Regardless, the album's softer elements in no way detract from *Laid Low'*s excellence, instead revealing EISM's potential to break into other genres should they continue on this path."[1]

HMMagazine gave a positive review, stating "Laid Low serves as an abbreviated illustration of the band’s various compelling modes", with the primary negative being the absence of a single headliner song of as high a quality as their past work.[2]
