| Bash It

They tell us that this
record is full of colorful language. Ha. Well, whatever
it is, it's something you don't want your grandma to
hear when she comes over to eat the left over Christmas
turkey. Naw, hide it. But when the air is clear, then
crank the system up and use your little brother as a
punching ball. Or something. Or whatever. However, we've
been telling you folks about LoDeck before. Once when
we reviewed the Embedded 12" and once when we reviewed
the "Euphony" compilation. And both 'Deck tracks that
are on these two releases are on here too: the 12" cut
"Hyperventilation"
and the compilation's "Stethoscope
Alley". That however still leaves us with
six new cranky, wacky, clever and as said colorful tracks.

And lyrically we are
not getting too much variation, while lyrically we are
getting a lot of losers humor, with tongue in cheek
rubbing and rhymes about weed and sex, like on any other
album, as they further tell us. Or you get some braggadocios
verses on "Rude"
that also features Atoms Fam's Alaska, who's making
his disses more entrapped in complex rhyme schemes and
big words. Something that 'Deck is thankfully not doing,
hence we can get what he's saying, even when we are
broader (meaning higher) than a Mississippi ship.

On "I
Pollute" we are back to 'Deck making
fun of himself. But that wit then in some strange way
do a 180, and suddenly the joke is on us. As it's him
that chills with nymphos, and all that good stuff. And
Blockhead is pulling out a really nice beat for this,
making us slip on the butter that is being dropped.
But Hipsta and Ese can't let some other cat walk away
with all the props given to the beats. Hence they are
getting something ill together for "Vacuum
Bags", that is doing some serious stabbing
with the drums, while 'Deck once more reminds us of
why he's laughing "I spit obscure shit that only I can
chuckle at". Then again "Today"
is coming dope too, allowing us to forget the too bare
offerings done by those two cats before.

Now Mac Lethal is also
said to be somewhere on this, but with the tracklisting
not matching the order of the tracks on the CD, who
knows what's up? Whatever the case, "Enter
Lewd" is finishing the album with some
scatting, some rambling and some, well confusion and
finally there's a hidden track as well, where Deck than
suddenly sounds angry and he threatens us will all kinds
of things that hurt.

Heck, we like humor.
We really like LoDeck. We very much like this record.
