After a decade of near-silence, Attic Abasement returns with “Summer Coat,” reasserting songwriter Mike Rheinheimer’s wry, basement-born vernacular that built the project’s cult catalog. A fixture in Rochester, NY for more than twenty years, Rheinheimer has shaped a generation, channeling anxiety and dry humor into tightly constructed, deceptively simple indie rock that feels pleasantly askew.
“Summer Coat” floats on a bright, plucky guitar, anchored by Rheinheimer’s distinct, measured drawl. With every instrument tracked by Rheinheimer himself, the song feels self-contained and deliberate, each element placed with a kind of private logic. It’s the sound of a songwriter returning to his own interior weather with a steadier hand.
