Never really got into these guys aside from the Mosquito ep but going back and decided to start here and was shocked to discover one of my favorite rap albums sampled the opening song. Last place I expected to find a sample from this album lol

okay so beyond the initial WTF factor, using that pentatonic synth motif was a sharp choice

update: wait why is he rapping completely out of time with the music

update 2: okay it's catching up around 1:15 but that was...triggering

Album Rating: 4.5

this isn't just a sample, it's them rapping over the looped opening to Wrists of Kings. did Isis get paid for this? left-fieldest rap/atmospheric metal collision since Pussy Print

I highly doubt Isis got paid lol I tried to search and can’t even find anything acknowledging they even sampled it. The only sample that pops up is Jah Vinci for that song. That album wasn’t necessarily mainstream big but when it comes to underground street artists they were one of the biggest from that era. It took me a minute to place where I’d heard it before when I put this on yesterday because this was the last thing I’d expect to take from an Isis song lol shit blew my mind when it clicked
