Couldn't find a thing when I searched, this album just dropped today and is actually really really good. Anyone pick it up, or atleast grab the leak that came out earlier this month?

ill check it out

'actually' really good? like there was a chance it wouldn't be?

^I HATED Bazooka Tooth. Fast Cars....wasn't fantastic, either.

I fucking love this new one.

I'm gonna venture a guess that you got into Aesop Rock when he dropped Labor Days, and more specifically "Daylight".

Am I right?

I used to like this dude, until I learned he was white and that his lyrics didn't mean anything.

8/29/2007 1:09:05 PM

^^nah, it wasn't very long before, though. a friend of mine got me into Float first, and was like "yeah his new one comes out in a couple months (Labor Days)."

Why would you venture that guess, anyway? Is this some futile attempt at trolling?

no, i'm not a troll.

Just guessing, since it seems that most people that 'hate' bazooka tooth were simply expecting another Labor Days.

Personally, I think his music has gotten better and better with each album. Haven't checked this new one out yet, though.

8/29/2007 1:59:24 PM

it's not that it wasn't even as GOOD, per se, as Labor Days. It was just so disjointed, disconnected, off-kilter that I thought it was some forced effort at something more "artistic" for him. I just couldn't dig it. For the record, though, I'm not one of those you find who think Labor DAys is one of the greatest hip hop albums ever, either. That said, I do love it.

^and unless it's been changed, the entire new album was being hosted on his myspace! the entire album.

What's the name of the secret song after "Coffee"?


"None Shall Pass" Video

Is it just me, or does that sound like that "Chocolate Rain" song?

haha, it kind of does. Awesome.

You gotta love Aesop Rock... I mean, he's got a song called "bring back Pluto" on this album.


Willem: I hear ya, Bazooka Tooth is indeed disjointed as fuck. I think it was kind of intentional, the entire album is darker and more chaotic than anything he's done before. I really like it, but gotta be in the right mood for it. To me, Labor Days was him trying to be more 'artistic'.

I still think one of his best songs is "basic cable". Delicious.

lol.

that's my favorite Aesop song ever.

wipe the spittle off my chin during the break.

this album is the hot shit.

9/28/2007 12:39:11 PM

agreed. anyone who listens to this album should also hear "fishtales", it was a single that he produced with Jeremy Fish. It is a complement to "The Harbour is Yours" on this album.

9/28/2007 1:54:14 PM

I'll have to check that out...just picked up None Shall Pass and I definitely approve.

10/1/2007 11:35:13 AM

I like Fishtales a lot better, and was disappointed that it got reworked so that most people are only going to hear The Harbour Is Yours.

^I hear ya. Fishtales is my shit. The art book that it came with is nice, too.

10/1/2007 8:49:08 PM
