Aesop, Rob Sonic & DJ Abilities are performing tonight at Star Theater, 13 NW Sixth Ave, Portland, OR as part of the 3 Days at MFNW presented by Red Bull Sound Select. You have to RSVP here. (It’s 21+ and entrance is not guaranteed, so arrive early!)
Hail Mary Mallon’s second album, Bestiary, is out today. We’re guessing you’ve pre-ordered it, but if you haven’t it’s available here. 3 different covers by Coro.
Aesop Rock & Rob Sonic will be hitting the road in January with Homeboy Sandman opening. Tickets go on sale later this week.
If you want to check the album out, they’re also streaming it here:
“The Blob is a 32-minute, continuous mix of beats & sounds that have otherwise been orphaned by their hell-bound father. It is largely unmixed and occasionally offensive,” offered Aesop Rock. “James Lynch played bass on the one that sounds like an elf orgy. Allyson Baker played guitar on the last one. Mastered by Joey Raia.”
Aesop continued on to say, “You can play it with your friends, you can rap to it, you can dance to it, you can play it at a party, you could build a house to it, you can play it in the bedroom, you can play it in front of your parents. The best part about it? This is 100% free, and downloadable, on the computer-net.”
