Dan Le Sac & Scroobious Pip

[acidbearboy]

No doubt I'm way behind but I heard 'Thou Shalt Always Kill' for the first time today. Top stuff, really like the lyrics & his delivery. I get the feeling it's going to be one of those love/hate tracks though, with more and more people hating it the more they hear it - and it will no doubt be overplayed. Anyway, a quick look on the Hype Machine and I found another track that's just as good to be honest. It seems that sampling Radiohead is cool at the moment, with Plan B borrowing The Pyramid Song for the excellent 'Missing Links' track and Pip & Le Sac borrowing Planet Telex for 'A Letter From God To Man' - again, clever lyrics. Check it out on Another Form of Relief if you haven't already:

T'is grand merely for the "thou shall not judge lethal weapon by Danny Glover"

[ZOK]

I like it, which is all that you hep cats need to know.

[MW_Jimmy]

I've said before that the video is quite good.

Have you watched the video? You should watch the video.

[Marzipan Travolta]

I like the "thou shalt not rip off Losing My Edge" line.

Anyways, I actually kinda like it. It has three, maybe four good lines and that's enough, I never want to hear it again though. Some people are just nice.

Saw the video > got the mp3

[Art Vandelay]

Zane Lowe loves it, which tells you all you need to know.

[StephenM]

It's really, really good.

I saw Scroob for the first time a year or two back outside an Atmosphere gig just rapping into an amp. It was probably the worst I have ever had the displeasure of hearing.

He is still shit now.

But that track is BRILLIANT. Go figure.

[ZOK]

I've never heard of Zane Lowe, which is all anyone has ever wanted to know, yo.

[Marzipan Travolta]

Can I be you please?

[Pekoe]

and yet, Breaks Co-Op The Sound Inside is a really good album. Go figure...

[Art Vandelay]

Kill yourself

Edit: That's a bit harsh, but seriously, as Phil Collins once said, why base your life on what people like or otherwise.

You're right, I do actually base my musical tastes around what Zane Lowe currently thinks. Jesus.

My point was is that it's the kind of trendwhore drivel that a DJ with a jackdaw's appreciation of music such as Lowe loves.

Wrong! I don't do radio or tv but I can tell it's a good track. You know I have taste, Art.

[K]

I hate it. It's all I can do to stop myself going "so say Brother Nathan" after every verse.

[acidbearboy]

Bought the extended version from Bleep today. Top stuff

-edit-

can this be moved back to the Music folder please.

[AnimeExpert2003]

Absolutely shit and I actually hate it, and I honestly don't hate many songs.

[ckny]

I like it. Don't get the phoenix/pheonix thing though, anyone?

[Don Rosco]

I thought it was quite good, but I don't ever want to hear it again.

I think he is just picking up on the fact that it's pronounced PHE-O-NIX, and yet it is spelt PHO-E-NIX.

[Nate Dogg III]

Oh, I LOVE this.

Reminds me of the first time I heard Has It Come To This. Is there an album anywhere?

[Aardvark]

Resurrecting the thread from a year ago....

There is now, and it's really pretty good. Quite a few other tracks ranting about popular culture, a couple of depressing and uncomfortable ones (Angles, and Magician's Assistant), and Letter from God to Man which is just brilliant.

[Vaya.]

got the demo of the album last month. It's pretty good, but it can wear a bit thin.

[bigbrick]

picked up the album on tuesday, haven't taken it out of the player since.

i had a load of demo mp3s and the live cd they sold on their last tour so there wasn't much in the way of surprises on there, but it really is a bloody good album.

[The Liberal Elite]

Ah bless, I remember seeing them way back whtn they were playing some shitty, shitty pub in Hoxton last year. I guess i'm going to have to buy this!

[cubik]

Been listening to this for the last few weeks since it leaked. I've even bought the CD after downloading it.

It's a quality bit of work, and whoever said Letter from God to Man was a killer track is 100% spot on.

[scissorkicks]

They supported Sparks on Tuesday night, and I was gutted to miss all but the last few beats. The door staff said the support was "a DJ or summink", so I went to eat and drinking something half decent in an alright pub, rather than overpriced Academy fizz. Ah well.

[murray]

I saw them at the Cockpit in Leeds last month and I thought they were excellent. I had only heard their 'Thou Shall Always Kill' track, but the set was brilliant.

[Christoph84]

I'm loving this album, some very touching tracks as well as surreal nonsense, Tommy C anyone?

[klargon]

I checked em out last year at Reading, solely cos the name 'Scroobius Pip' amused me. Turned out they were actually pretty nifty. I like the album, makes a change from all the rawk I listen to. Scroobius speaks the troof, yo.

[Nate Dogg III]

Pretty disappointing album overall - based on Thou Shalt Always Kill I was expecting it to be good lyrically and a bit dull on the production side but if anything it's the other way round.

The instrumental bit at the end of Letter From God To Man - with the Planet Telex sample battered to fuck with an enormous old skool hardcore Amen underneath it - is probably the best 60 seconds or so of music I'll hear all year. Just fucking RUDE.
