The third full-length album from the Oakland based band Subtle. Described by their members as "genreless," their sound is best explained as T.V. On The Radio with mild anti-depressants with a touch of rap. This is the third installment of the epic chronicling HourHeroYES, a bald poet with a black and white stripped face...yep. Adam Drucker a.k.a. Doseone is one strange dude; he is kind of the Kevin Barnes of the indie rap scene (except not nearly as popular). A perfect example being the fact that he intentionally removed the word I from ever lyric on the album. Weirdos aside, member Dax Pierson was severely injured in a tour van accident in 2005 leaving him confined to a wheelchair. Crippling injuries aside he still contributes to the band to this day using a special mouse and keyboard.
Enjoy
A.J.
