My last one is, uh, Carl you gotta give me that term again. It's spontaneous combustion is I think what they call it. Right? Right? And what happens is... When a fire starts to burn. Right? And it starts to spread, she gonna bring that attitude home.

Disclosure is an electronic dance music duo made up of brothers Guy and Howard Lawrence.


Discography:

  • Settle (2013)
  • Caracal (2015)
  • ENERGY (2020)
  • Alchemy (2023)


Got you shackled in my embrace, I'm troping on to you:

  • Album Title Drop: "Nocturnal" from Caracal
    Why can't I find peace when a caracal could sleep tonight?
  • Band of Relatives: Guy and Howard are brothers.
  • Big Damn Kiss: The music video for "Latch" is essentially a compilation of them.
  • Black Comedy: The "My High" video features a restrained trauma patient on a gurney being dragged around various locations.
  • Genre Throwback: While it's not hard to hear the influence of modern pop on the duo's music, it's also very clear that their music is highly influenced by 90's deep house/ UK Garage.
  • Happy Rain: One of the couples in the "Latch" video is seen making out in the rain.
  • House Music: The vast majority of Disclosure's music.
  • Looped Lyrics: "When a Fire Starts to Burn:
    When a fire starts to burn, right, and it starts to spread
    She gon' bring that attitude home
    Who don't wanna do nothing with their life
  • New Sound Album: Of sorts, 2023's Alchemy marked the first time the duo released an album without any samples or features.
  • One-Man Song: "Etran."
  • Spoken Word in Music: A few of Eric Thomas's motivational speeches have been sampled in Disclosure's songs. He can be heard in "When a Fire Starts to Burn," "ENERGY," and in the collaboration with Friend Within "The Mechanism."
  • Textless Album Cover: ENERGY's album cover.
  • Title Track: On the album ENERGY, and the EPs Moonlight, Never Enough, and Ecstasy.
