Open Mike Eagle and Kenny Segal have collaborated on new album DOOMED! which will be out August 14 via Backwoodz. “Each vision is a crashed airplane halfway on the border of dream and nightmare, bitter and sweet, sadness and freedom,” Open Mike Eagle says. “Every one of Kenny’s beats is a chunk of ore from a different comet. I used each one as a canvas to paint my impression of a dead world.”
“In recent years, Kenny made it very clear that he wasn’t trying to keep having one or two beats on my projects; he wanted to build something,” Mike says. “I was able to convince him to let me use a couple beats for Neighborhood Gods Unlimited with the caveat that we would focus on our thing next. Then my relationship fell apart right when we started working, and it was like, ‘Perfect, I have a lot to say about this.’”
The album features contributions from billy woods, Gothic Tropic, and more. The first single from the album is “Unfinished Concrete Initials” featuring Hemlock Ernst…aka Samuel T Herring of Future Islands. Listen to that below.
