I think it's time for some of that hip hop today. Got two more for you people:

Doom - Born Like This

The song is Gazillion Ear. All I really have to say about this is that it was a huge disappointment to me. DOOM is still better than a lot of the rappers out there, as far as I'm concerned, but this album can't hope to stand up with anything else he's made. Is this the next Mm..Food or Operation: Doomsday? Hardly. In fact, I think it may be possible that he dropped the MF and the caps to ditch the comic moniker and get a little bit more serious. But, if you're a fan of MF DOOM, you'll probably want to pay it some attention. It's worth a shot, you might like it more than me.

Dalek - Gutter Tactics

The song is 2012 (The Pillage). This is almost certainly my favorite hip hop album so far this year, and I have jackhammer to thank for introducing me to this band

. Gutter Tactics takes the abrasive, noisy sound of Absence with the ambient hip hop of Abandoned Language to create a dark, gloomy, loud but more accessible hip hop gem. If you like underground hip hop at all, check this out. It's fantastic.
