I was losing weight quickly, my head was in a constant fog, and I was feeling very weak. When I went to the doctor, they came up with a few haphazard ideas, but had no real answers for me. These complications culminated in a loss of consciousness, as well as momentarily losing my eyesight (and control over my body) in the crowd of a Mitski concert in Madison that spring.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>In the weeks after returning from urgent care, I reflected more intently on my health and what could be causing me to feel so terribly. I realized how poorly I\u2019d been dealing with the aspects of my life that had been troubling me, and how fragile my mental and emotional state had really become. Instead of facing my problems and insecurities I chose to ignore them, coping through unhealthy habits. I was creating a vicious cycle of numbing myself to the root of my distress, only to then be confused as to why I felt so bad. Through this experience, I realized the true gravity of the intersection between my mental, emotional, and physical well being. This song is about discovering that connection, and trying to uncover how I fell into these tendencies that cause me harm.&#8221;<\/em><br><br>The band have also shared a remix of of the track by draag me, the alter-ego of Zack Schwartz from Spirit Of The Beehive, their Saddle Creek labelmates. Listen to <em>Gentle<\/em> (draag me remix) via Spotify below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Gentle - draag me Remix\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/3LQi2numktKhVzerIlY0y6?si=0cnotupXRJiRs_I18ucG1w&#038;dl_branch=1&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The band had the following to say about the collaboration: <em>\u201cWhen we approached the possibility of remixing \u201cGentle,&#8221; it was immediately and unanimously decided that draag me would be our first choice (a rare feat for this band) &#8211; Zack\u2019s work with draag me and SPIRIT OF THE BEEHIVE\u00a0is so fresh and singular, a massive inspiration to our band, so when Zack agreed we were ecstatic. When we received the remix and sat down to listen, we didn\u2019t know what to expect really, we thought that maybe it would either be somewhat conventional or absolutely insane, and we were happy to discover upon the first few seconds of listening that it was clearly the latter. Sitting there with stupid grins on our faces trying to decipher our music, we laughed our asses off, our minds were blown, it was incredible. We hope you\u2019ll be able to find just as much newfound joy in our song as we did through Zack\u2019s remix. Draw a bath, light a few candles, spark up a bowl, light a joint, screw on a fresh cart, torch your rig, refill your dry herb vape, and enjoy.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More details on \u2018Collector\u2019<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Collector,\u2019 like the band itself, is defined and tightly-contoured by the ties between its members. Raina Bock (bass\/vocals) and Isaac deBroux-Slone (guitar\/vocals) have known each other from infancy, growing up and into music together. Now in their early 20s and a five-piece, rounded out by Shannon Connor (guitar\/keys\/vocals), Logan Severson (guitar\/vocals), and Brendan Manley (drums), Disq have assembled a razor-sharp, teetering-on-the-edge-of-chaos melange of sounds, experiences, memories, and influences on their debut LP. Produced by Rob Schnapf (Beck, Elliot Smith, Kurt Vile), Collector is a set of songs largely pulled from each of the five members&#8217; demo piles over the years. They&#8217;re organic representations of each moment in time, gathered together to tell a mixtape-story of growing up in 21st century America with your best friends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Wisconsin&#8217;s Disq put out their debut album \u2018Collector\u2019 in the early part of 2020 to international acclaim.
