Retribution Gospel Choir is an indie rock band based in Duluth, Minnesota. Current members of the band include Alan Sparhawk (guitar, vocals, sampler) and Steve Garrington (bass), both of whom were also in the band Low, and Eric Pollard (drums, vocals). Despite sharing the majority of their members, RGC's high-energy performance differs greatly from Low's subdued, minimalist feel.

Until 2008, Matt Livingston, also bassist with Low, played bass for the band. Sparhawk's wife and Low bandmate Mimi Parker appears on vocals on one Retribution Gospel Choir track.

The band's 2008 self-titled debut studio album received a 7.5 rating from Pitchfork, whose reviewer Mike McGonigal noted, "To address the album on 70s turf, Retribution Gospel Choir may not be as great as a Neil Young with Crazy Horse album, but it's better than any of the albums Crazy Horse made on their own."[1]
