Atrocity Exhibition

Description

Atrocity Exhibitionis one of the freshest and boldest-sounding rap albums in recent memory, a sonic swirl inspired by the work of Talking Heads and Joy Division that nonetheless sounds like nothing else from the past or present. Featuring contributions from producers likeEvian Christ,Petite Noir(who also lends vocals to the world-weary clang of “Rolling Stone”),Black Milk, theAlchemistand frequent collaboratorPaul White, the album is full of laser-beam guitars, gym-teacher whistles, creaking vocal samples, and air-raid drones. It is the most intriguing take on hallucinatory rap since the heady heights of Cold Vein or Madvillainy.

This album is a highly personal take onDanny Brown’sruminations on life and the changes that have occurred – and those that didn’t – following the ups and downs of career success. Atrocity Exhibitionmakes for a thrilling third installment in his singular biopic, one not to be missed.
