Good Day Noir Family, Dream of a Man in a Top Hat are back with a new cool single and I want to share my opinion about it.
The Destination is Dream of a Man in a Top Hat’s Single
The melodic construction of this song is really fantastic.
Already from the first seconds, I was hooked by the strange and fascinating guitar riff, unstable and unpredictable.
While listening to The Destination I felt like I was walking on quicksand and as if something unexpected could happen at any moment.
The avant-garde and innovative compositional approach of this duo is also reconfirmed in this song.
The richness of the musical arrangements is incredible and the attention with which the sounds have been chosen is truly out of the ordinary.
I also really liked the ending which reminded me of Radiohead’s Karma Police.
Dream of a Man in a Top Hat wants to give us musical experiences that are always different and complete and somehow they want to open our minds to the future.

The Destination is Dream of a Man in a Top Hat’s Single
Two thirds of Boston 80’s post-punk band Native Tongue, Lee Leffler (guitars, keyboards, vocals, lyrics) and Michael Frackleton (drums, bass, percussion, keyboards, vocals, lyrics) comprise the duo Dream of a Man in a Top Hat. And though years have passed since they first played together one thing hasn’t changed – the same uncompromising sensibility can be found in the sounds that come out of these two. As music blogger mp3 hugger so aptly put it: “they have conspired to go about things in the only way they see possible and that means the rest of us have to shape up or ship out.”
In writing about their debut record, the 6 song EP Blunt Instrumentals (released summer of 2020), bloggers and curators described their music as: cool, grooving, swaggering, psychedelic, experimental, wild, infectious, seductive, chaotic and unique. In the summer of 2021 Dream of a Man in a Top Hat expanded beyond instrumentals and added their own unique vocals to a new full-length album, Sudden Return Of DOAMIATH, startling and pleasing critics, bloggers and playlisters alike.
