Single review: HATS OFF GENTLEMEN IT’S ADEQUATE – Copenhagen

https://hatsoffgentlemen.bandcamp.com/album/copenhagen

Bandcamp [Release date 11.06.24]

‘Copenhagen’ is the second single from forthcoming album ‘The Uncertainty Principle’ by Hats Off Gentlemen It’s Adequate. It is currently available on Bandcamp, and will be on other platforms from July.

‘Copenhagen’ is about a disputed conversation between Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg during WW2. It is unclear whether Heisenberg was seeking help from Bohr (the scientist of Jewish heritage in an occupied country) to build a German atomic bomb, or whether he was trying to get information to the Allies about their plans. As ever with Hats Off Gentlemen It’s Adequate they take what could be considered quite a niche piece of history and add their progressive and melodic magic to the proceedings.

The B-side, ‘Safe When Handled With Care’ is a jaunty instrumental, full of vim and vigour, and they even add in some synth horns for good measure.

Hats Off Gentlemen It’s Adequate are finally getting the following and recognition their music deserves. With this latest single the appetite grows even more to hear the new album, which is the aim of any good single like this one.
