Sun City Girls - Dante's Disneyland Inferno
Image

Dark and twisted storytelling by Charles Gocher backed by a variety of instrumental moods: bongo bohemia, C&W, lounge swing swong, ooga booga rock, children's melodies and all things in between.

Includes two Uncle Jim pieces, his first appearance since the debut LP in 1984. Also, "Hector and Chino" features guest vocals by 9-year-old Crystal Gallegos.

Much of the material on this release was originally recorded during the Torch of the Mystics sessions, remixed by Scott Colburn and the band.

Locust in Chicago reissued this as a 3-LP set in 2002 as a limited edition of 500.

"Sun City Girls don't appear as the psychedelic rock band of Torch of the Mystics in this sequence; it's more like the absurd theater of Jacks Creek, where Kurt Weill meets William S. Burroughs and the two set about composing depraved children's songs." — Martin Walters, All Music Guide

The SCG is a pretty large file, sorry 'bout that, it'll take a while, but It's worth it. Trust me.

Most of you won't be interested in this, but for those of you who are, this contains a bunch of tracks from the past 5 or so years.

The first three tracks or so are the singles that basically invented the genre; Oi! by More Fire Crew was recorded for free in their local youth club when they were sixteen. Eskiboy by Wiley is basically kickstarted the whole thing. Pow! by Lethal Bizzle was banned for starting riots in clubs.

It's silly at times, sure, and probably too wantonly violent, but by my reckoning it's the most interesting thing going on in Britain at the moment.

And now for something completely different....





MF Doom / MF Grimm

"Here comes MF Doom again; that crazy motherfuckin villain who ain't afraid to call out "sissy pissy-rappers whose double dutch" and his grimy crimey MF Grimm - he who is in fact currently doing a bid for some unfortunate badness from a prior life. This 14-track EP seems extra long at first; if you look closely it's seven tracks and seven instrumentals - which is actually kinda ill and nice for the fans and DJ's who want to flip it in the mix.

The lead track "Doomsday Remix" is remixed from Doom's LP "Operation Doomsday" with new music by Mister Jason and cuts by Fakts One. This track is pretty nice altough it's a little more club friendly than what one would typically expect from Doom. Perhaps sensitive to that perception, Doom responded with the next track "No Snakes Alive" which features King Ghidra, Jet Jagua, and Rodan. Although you can certainly respect the track for experimenting with the concepts of tempo as Doom has done in the past to great effect, it doesn't really work here. The song speeds and slows without warning; whereas in the context of Doom songs like "Tick Tick" from his LP (coincidentally a duet with MF Grimm) the changes were structured so that you could reasonably expect when and where they'd occur. Doom recovers nicely with the somber and heavy "Impostas" which definitely sounds like an unreleased b-side from the "Operation Doomsday" recording sessions.

MF Grimm is represented with four cuts immediately following, including two versions of "The Original" which bookend his selections on either side. The Fakts One "Remix" comes first and Grimm kicks some hardcore braggadociousness with rhymes like "All big-head rappers I will diss them; the world is too little - Grimm Reaper run the {fuckin} solar system." This is pretty typical of Grimm's style - he's a straight ahead rapper who really doesn't pull any punches or try to act super-complex with his hard lyrics; as he says in "Break Em Off" he's "known for showin love and bustin pistols." Even though this cut is a little lackluster in the energy and beat department it's quickly made up for by the spirit of "Dedicated" - a cut which ostensibly goes out to their fallen brother-in-arms Subroc and any other members of their crew who passed on. You might be caught off guard when he says "push record and let me cry" but that's the endearing part of Grimm's raps - his brutal honesty.

On the whole, this EP has some nice flavors that can be said to be both typical of New York's underground rap scene and ahead of their contemporaries at the same time. On an album with only seven songs, two weak cuts like "No Snakes Alive" and "Break Em Off" hits harder percentage wise, but anybody who is a fan of Doom or Grimm shouldn't feel dissapointed by this release - and if you're not into one of the two you'll be checking for the other when you're through. Shout outs to Bobbito Garcia, Day By Day Entertainment, and Brick Records for the hook-up. "

Two of the Wiley tracks on there are from a mixtape called War Report, compiled by a DJ called Logan Sama at one of the radio stations in London that plays a lot of grime. Seemingly, for a couple of weeks Wiley had a massive grudge against this group called the Movement. They kept dropping off new diss tracks every couple of days, trading insults back and forth. Wiley's are absolutely amazing. Especially 'War Report Dub'. It's 6 minutes long, and he calls everyone out. If you search around, that mix is readily available. As are the first two volumes of Wiley's Tunnel Vision series of mixtapes, but they've got quite a bit of filler.

Hope you dig it.
