Injury Reserve have tapped into something incredible here. I need to let this really sink in.

this is what it feels like when you need to cry but are physically incapable of. truly the sound of struggle bubbling up inside you finally getting out in one chaotic breakdown.

"I don't think they get it." "And you if don't, then there's something wrong, up here in your noggin." The prison complex slave force is having trouble keeping up with the increasing forest fires. People have been taking to the streets because of incongruence between politics and the need for representation. People are overdosing on pills in droves from a depressive disconnection; a lack of consequence. Society exists in disassociation; It's in our structures. These are the rational ramblings of well-meaning men.

A unique listen for real. Hip hop and rap are but ghosts here, dying memories of what once was. Scary, disturbing shit. Can't say I *love* this but gotta respek.

Things Fall Apart: The Too Real Version. An impossibly dense and effecting piece of art. I can't avoid viewing this as a classic without short handing myself.

2021. They didn't have to do any of this. In great modern music, the composition of the work is mostly symbolic. Made of an arrangement of styles rather than notes or feelings. And often, the music's style is just what the composer WANTED it to be. But the person who wanted this is dead. So why does it exist? Because the need to create it had to go somewhere. With an underlying constant of performers taking up an impossible task, filling shoes that aren't theirs, this work is an honest one, a funny one, a dark one, and a hopeful one.

Well the new Injury Reserve album has finally dropped nearly a year after Stepa J. Groggs death the band has released their sophomore record and it is a bit of a doozie. Honestly, I have been reviewing music for the last four years and have been an avid music fan since middle school, so I have listened to a lot of music in my life, and I have listened to a lot of experimental music in my life. This new Injury Reserve album is honestly the most challenging album I have listened to yet. Nothing about the album is conventional in rap at all, or glitch-hop for that matter. This album is the definition of hell in a sentence. But sometimes this album takes it way too far because there are various tracks that are just unlistenable to me. For example, ?Top Picks for You? is one of the most boring experimental rap tracks I have heard in a while that is so overblown with production that I honestly can?t sit through it. But there are also some huge highlights throughout the album like the single ?Superman That? which is one of the best glitch-hop tracks I have heard ever and ?Smoke Don?t Clear? might be the definition of a deconstructed rap bagger. But overall, this is an okay record with a lot of exploration on it, but some of it I can?t sit through.

Dude, I wasn't crazy about the IR debut, but man, from the first note, it's really something special, my attention kinda went away for a good part of it, but I'm sure after multiple listens, this'll get better.

Hard to imagine this album sounding any other way. The fog of grief weighs heavy.

It's the love child of Scott Walker's The Drift, The Flaming Lips' The Terror, David Bowie's Blackstar, Death Grips' Year of the Snitch, and Danny Brown's Atrocity Exhibition. It's amazing.
