Yeah, so he sounds like a less-goofy (i.e. less-interesting) Del and his flow seems kind of off here and there at times but on the other hand HE DID A PSEUDO-CRUNK TRACK WITH EL-P FERCHRISSAKES. Thoughts?

"Please Leave" is the biggest waste of the Hawking synth-voice in hiphop. But it does tip Joy Division at the beginning.

I barely noticed that "Love Will Tear Us Apart" ref the first time around but ha, that's awesome. The rest of the song's pretty average, though.

But er what Hawking voice? Do you have the Promobot version?

one of the better def jux releases, if only for "it's about you" and that shock g / humpty joint. Plus, that skateboarding track is ill. I like him.

TS: Murs vs. Chad Muska!

I really like his narrative raps ("24 Hours w/ a G," "The Night Before..."), but otherwise, his raps come across as pretty lackluster. And that El-P doubletime track just seems so...ill-conceived and poorly executed. I've only had the album for a couple days, though, so maybe the rest of it'll grow on me.

i agree the doubetime "el-Pizzybone" track was ill-advised.
Quick, what's the skateboarding song called? wanna downlaod it. I sell records faster than i can review 'em sometimes.

Do you have the Promobot version?

Whoops. Wasn't aware of such a thing. That might explain it!
