There are elements of Washed Out or The Dismemberment Plan, as filtered through the Beastie Boys on Yikes.

A collaboration between House Ghost and Tampa rapper Jay Atoms, everything on Yikes is top shelf — from the tight rhythm section to the keys that add atmosphere, as well as the whip-smart vocals.
