Ab-Soul - Control System (2012)

I've been pretty negligent in keeping up with hip hop releases this year, and I really liked the song he was on on Kendrick Lamar's album from last year, soooo yeah I figure I'll give it a try, it can't be any worse than Busdriver's latest album.

A Venetian Snares side project... I'm going into this totally blind, I have no idea what to expect.

Been on a major toe kick (lol) lately and word on the street is this is their single strongest offering so I'm greatly looking forward to it-- plucky math/post rock.

His previous (debut?) album was very average. let me know if this is worth checking out.

Do you buy all your music mate?

50-50, I suppose

i only download when i'm missing non-crucial albums in the discography, lazy to make a trip to the record store or it's not available here

I showed my Grandmother (God rest her soul), who was a devout Christian, the lyrics to "After Forever", and she was really impressed with how spiritual they are. So, popular opinion isn't always correct.

If you've got Spotify it's on there so you can try it for yourself but I thought it was pretty... bad. The song with Kendrick Lamar was the best thing on the album.

Unfortunately I don't. Can't be arsed paying for it and my hour or so has ran out.

Won't bother then.

So you're kinda OCD (like me) about having all the important/critically acclaimed albums in the bands discography?
