Sad Clown Back For a Bad Summer

Slug is the kind of MC you would think would wither and die as he gets older. He's been around the game long over a decade, has a daughter and wife, and lately has been sporting a greased-up mullet. The drugs, alcohol, and flocking depressed women just don't provide the lyrical fodder they used to.

So it's only natural to expect Atmosphere to have already become irrelevant. But, strangely, they aren't at all. Each song off their new EP Leak At Will (that curiously isn't leakable because you have to sign up for a mailing list to get it), has the usual unique ANT beats and descriptive Sluggo attack that made us love Lucy Ford originally. Golf clap for you, old man.

ATMOSPHERE - THE ROPES

ATMOSPHERE - THEY ALWAYS KNOW

Leak At Will is nice. Slug actually cut that greasy mullet off for the tour last Fall. Thank God.

Just a heads up he doesn't have a wife nor daughter.
