Subtle (ft. Dan Boeckner) - Middleclass Haunt

So, this is a pretty hot track. Anybody who’s ever heard any of Adam Drucker’s stuff knows you’re gonna be on a bit of a wild ride, at least lyrically. I just read an interview with him regarding the new Subtle album. It started out pretty normal, but about halfway through I was completely lost in his discussion about Hour Hero Yes, and the mythical Two-Beasts or whatever the hell he was talking about.

I didn’t get anything out of reading that interview, but when Doseone gets on the mic, something special happens every time. Drucker’s flow is one of the more difficult to get used to, but this track is complemented beautifully by a guest spot from Dan Boeckner from Wolf Parade. The vocals are simply haunting, and the acoustic guitar harmonic breakdown halfway through is a gorgeous moment in songwriting.

    dear will,

    you know what is going to be even hotter than the next subtle album (which im sure will be good)? the next themselves album. that shit better destroy hip hop forever or else i give up on dose entirely.

    i do think the newer subtle stuff has a little too much singing in it. just my taste maybe.

    love,
