The Upperclass Men – “Vae Victus (Woe to the Vanquished)”

UCM The Upperclass Men   Vae Victus (Woe to the Vanquished)

The Upperclass Men are back with a new single. The Brooklyn based hip-hop/rock group does the whole hip-hop with live instruments and seemingly endless stores of energy thing pretty well. At times it sounds like The Roots playing as a really pissed off version of the Roots. This is probably not the first time Heath Ledger’s Joker has been sampled, and I certainly hope it’s not the last. It’s the kind of track that an agent of chaos would most certainly have in his destroy-and-pillage playlist.

“Vae Victus” visuals are due out in March, and the new album Amnesia drops this spring.
