Rabbits In A Hurry
There’s something about “Rabbits In A Hurry” that makes my collar feel tight. It’s the combination, I think, of Aksel Schaufler’s lurking, nasal delivery and lyrics that do nothing to dissuade the idea that this track’s about the one thing rabbits are famous for doing other than catching myxomatosis and dying blind and lazy. The two together are kind of creepy, but creepy in a way that’s playful enough—with shuffling, disco hats and alien synth gloop—to make it kind of sexy too. Its hustle is what sets Superpitcher apart from so many other men longing to make love to their machinery—coming on as streetwise as it sounds ribald, “Rabbits…” features on Schaufler’s new album Kilimanjaro.
