Still shrouded under a blanket of mystery, London's Men Among Boys have revealed another cut, "The Edge", from their upcoming In Reverse EP, exclusively on Best Fit.
The production/R&B-pop two-piece share similarities with quiet storm/PBR&B revolutionaries like Drake (when he teams with SBTRKT) or Frank Ocean. Indulge in soulful falsettos, the faintest grimy twang of a London accent and soft imperial synth wobs. It's gorgeous like crushed velvet, yet retains an emotional jab.
