Milkman Dan is the biggest Ryhmesayers Whore i've ever met, in person or on the inner nets. I totally covet his collection and wish he would upload some more of his shit to my server, but he is a crochity old man and will not.

Also, I saw Beans the other night when Prefuse 73 came to town. He was awesome.

LightThievesAll:
The fact that RJD2 stands for Ronnie James Dio the second makes me overflow with glee.

In addition:

Non-Phixion (download "The CIA is Trying to Kill Me", "I Shot Reagan", or "Black Helicopters" and tell me that they don't eat your face.  How can you not love a group with the lyric, "I reign in blood, just like Slayer did in '86"?)

I can't believe no one mentioned Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone.  You should be fucking ashamed.






Another note about Non-Phixion.  In their song "The CIA is Still Trying to Kill Me", which is a metal remix of the previously mentioned song (complete with Dino from Fear Factory on guitar), there are references to Slayer, Megadeth, Black Sabbath, Metallica, and I seem to remember an Anthrax reference but I may be wrong.  Also, their logo is modeled after the Voivod logo.  Bottom line: Non-Phixion is really, really awesome, and they're metalheads, which makes them orgasmic.

--- Quote from: Praeserpium Machinarum ---I like hip hop(Streets, Roots and a couple of others) but I can't stand the braggadocio, that some hip hop acts use way too much time on . Basically I want more than shout-outs, how cool I am, PARTY and how my homies are all dying. Good original lyrics is all I ask. I am considering getting Sage Francis - A Healthy Distrust, Themselves - The No Music and cLOUDDEAD - Ten, anyone have them and are they good?

I have Ten by clouddead and it's slightly above average.  Doseone's nasally vocal style can be a bit grating after a few tracks.  They're sort of like the "They Might Be Giants" of hip-hop.

New Roots Manuva is quite good...you might be interested in that.

Is it just the lyrical content you're looking for or are you into abstract beats as well?

Praeserpium Machinarum:
both, I once heard someone say that a song should be 50/50 as to the importance of the music and lyrics, and I agree, so...
I think I remember something about Roots Manuva being a bit too introvert, in that he could rhyme about thinking that he thought about thinking yesterday, though that might be wrong...
