14 (Actually One Less, But I Refuse to Acknowledge the Existence of That Number) Things I Learned from Sole’s New YouTube Video

YouTube video.

1 - Sole is releasing a new album featuring The Skyrider Band.
1.5 - Somehow this relates to a solar eclipse behind a rooster impaled on a scythe.

2 - Sole is a blood relative of Will Oldham.

3 - The editing team used iMovie to put this together.

4 - “Things are generally fucked up everywhere, but things are wonderful up everywhere too... not everywhere... Darfur isn’t that hot right now.”

5 - The new album is more “personal,” “mature,” and “grounded.”
5.5 - That said, the video for the song “Stupid Things Implode On Themselves” does feature an apparently biblical Sole firing an anachronistic machine gun.

6 - Beats are much more organic than the past, coming out of improvisation.

7 - There is a link between pushups, Levitowns, Dairy Queen, and Sole’s new album.
7.5 - Where it lies is unclear.

8 - Sole either hates Akon or Pop-Punk; his impression could be construed as either.

9 - Sole aims to be less cryptic on this album.

10 - The animated Anticon logo looks so cool Pixar should base a short on it.

11 - Album is called Sole and the Skyrider Band and drops on October 23.

12 - Fans can garner that the new album will be a classic through only hearing three 15-second sound clips.

14 - Though I hate hearing him talk, the new tracks sound undeniably hot
