You've never heard of Power Douglas? That's okay. Just know that when Power Douglas hits you, it hits you. Signed to King Britt's FiveSixMedia, this NY trio of eccentric vocalist Furor Thin and multi-instrumentalists Tim Harp and Jesse Crawford composes a genre-bending hybrid of post-modern punk and hip-hop with Furor Thin howling and rapping about all kinds of weird sh*t over skittery beats. Think Kool Keith meets Public Enemy meets TV on the Radio, and then smash the f*ck out of what you think that might sound like.

Power Douglas is a mania-addled force of nature spewing up ghost poetry over an endless and freewheeling drum solo. They're punk rock bellowed against a wall of Rhodes organ, or Antipop Consortium on acid, slap-bloxing with Miles Davis's ghoul. The details of their existence are kept shrouded in references to griffins and unspecified czars, but they're inarguably Brooklyn Borne, with three songs featuring Tunde Adebimpe (TVOTR) and no interest in reason whatsoever.
