Fat Tony drops some more sharp-witted southern swagger. Prodigy and Alchemist bring the expected eery, doom. The White Mandingos (Murs, Sacha Jenkins from EgoTrip, & Darryl Jenifer of Bad Brains) take on the dangerous territory of conceptual punk/rock/hip hop and nail it, including a cover of Minor Threat’s “Guilty of Being White.” They’re definitely flippin the color line on this joint. JNatural rounds out the week with a feminine but no less powerful Bad Woman Rising.

Electronic/a, bleeps, blips

When people seem to hype up and keep talking about an upcoming release it gets annoying, but I gotta say I am looking forward to the new Boards of Canada album. So there, ’nuff said.
