Box Set aside, VOL 9 + 0 is by far my favorite album of the series. In fact, I think it would be in my Top 10 DOOM albums. |

he has 2 albums that can be abreviated as VVVV. :cool: |

"Daylight" is Aesop's crowning achievement. I don't think he could ever get this close to perfection again. |

So true. He's got other sick tracks, and the whole album is pretty great, but DAMN that track is the killer... Quote:
I only have the box set. It it really worth shelling out of the separate releases? Also, at some point your going to have to PM a list of the non-'proper studio album' Doom releases that I need to check out. Currently: ![]() I'd happily say that 'Definition' is one of the top 20 (sometimes top 10) hip-hop singles ever, with no qualifications. |
^Blackstar is a great album.
I tend to listen to the individual HERBS a lot more than the box. Probably cuz I bought them as they came out, so they actually feel like specific albums to me. When it comes to the box, I really only listen to disc 3 regularly, since there was no full length KMD instrumental albums prior (other than the BB instrumental EP). As for a rundown of DOOM releases, I was actually planning on doing that for you anyway. It'll take me a little while though, but I'll really outline it well for you. |
Fair enough dude, would be mega appreciated. There's a few I still don't have even from the 'big releases', namely VVVV II and Mr. Hood. I also don't have the Monster Island Czars album or the MF EP. Or the special blends release. Need some serious buying.
And yeah, Blackstar is badass. Sometimes I even prefer Reflection Eternal though (in large part for Expansion Outro). Black On Both Sides is also a classic. Quality is pretty good, but doesn't have the same place in my heart. After that they both fell off a bit, but damn they were sick in the day. I don't have the new Mos yet. |
![]() But basically just 'Fire In Which You Burn Slow' on fucking loop. I'd also be willing to say that El-Ps verse in that is without question in my top 10 verses ever spat. 'Even when I say nothing it's a beautiful use of negative space' is my all time favourite rap boast. |
^"I've been the nastiest one since birth...." You have El-P's FANTASTIC DAMAGE, right? If not, stop what yr doing and go get it. Utterly essential.
|
On triple vinyl :) Stepfather Factory is another of my faves. I don't have the second album though. Should get that right? The main Def Jux I'm missing is Cannibal Ox, which I don't own (I know I know, boo!)

Can Ox's COLD VEIN is must-have. El-P's I'LL SLEEP WHEN YOU'RE DEAD is good, but not even close to FANDAM. "Step Father Factory" is maybe one of the 5 best singles DEF JUX ever released. But FANDAM in general is ridiculous. |
I know. Deep Space 9mm? HOLY SHIT! And yeah, Cold Vein is high on my 'must gets'. I literally owned 2 'proper' hip-hop albums in January (I Take A Nation Of Millions... and Dr. Octagonacologyst), and hadn't listen to either or enjoyed them that much outside of Bring The Noise and Blue Flowers, so it's been a shitting ton of catch up.
|
the "sign to Ruckus?..." line in "Deep Space 9MM" is an incredible moment. And what about the segue into the instrumental ending of "Time Out Of Joint?"
|
Holy shit, I'm just relistening to 'The Fire In Which You Burn Slow' a stupid amount. This happens every time!
