Revolutionary Vol. 2 is definitely more accessible though.

I guess it depends on how dark you want to start to off.

Yeah. I couldn't say which album is better, Vol. 1 has a darker and more unpolished sound--like he recorded it in a basement. Vol. 2 is more listener friendly with something that more closely resembles mainstream-production.

Sorry man, I love The Revolutionary vol. 1 but Vol. 2 got me with that song. To date it is the only song that has ever brought a tear to my eye, yes I can admit it.

I actually kind of took a few moments to myself after listening to Dance With The Devil... Got goosebumps after listening to that track, one of the rawest moments in music I'd have to say...

That's the track that got me into him actually. I was looking for the Norwegian black metal band Immortal on demonoid a while back and the album came up with the song "Dance With the Devil" and I"m thinking... yeah that sounds pretty black metalish... *click* *listen* *jaw drop*

Nice lyrics, weaker flow. Powerful, but crackpot-esque at times. IT really makes me take the good with the bad. He definitely comes off as intelligent, though, which I do like.

I kept seeing posters around town last year for a live concert by this guy. Now I'm disappointed I didn't go

The guy is just so raw Some of his rymes just make your jaw drop.

Love the politics, love the flow and love his beats.

Although the 3rd world was incredibly dissapointing.

Favourite tracks, the cause of death, the poverty of philosophy, the 4th branch, revolutionary and of course dance with the devil.
