Archy Marshall, the enigmatic South London singer best known as King Krule (@edgar_the_breathtaker), is a creature of the night. Known since the age of 15 as a wise and unpredictable songwriter, @edgar_the_breathtaker, now 23, has assumed the mantle of a bard for the shrouded underclass. On songs that mix jazz, punk, dub, hip-hop and the affectations of a zonked-out lounge crooner, he has cut what he calls “gritty stories about the streets” with a “sensitive and romantic side.” He’s also timelessly cool. After a few years away from New York — another city that values a grimy deadbeat with a pretentious side — @edgar_the_breathtaker recently played a secret late-night show in an overstuffed Manhattan dim sum restaurant. His new album, “The Ooz,” returns to his typical themes. It feels like a swan dive into his turbulent subconscious, jarring by design as it lurches from laid-back almost-rap to post-Clash punk back to ’50s-style rock ’n’ roll balladeering. The titular “ooz” represents all the excess crud our bodies are constantly discharging. “You go to sleep and your nails grow, you get boogies, your hair, your teeth,” he explained while chain-smoking. “You’ve got to refine it every day.” @rogerkisby took these photos of #KingKrule.
