ace rock tomorrow

In partial reference to the R.E.C.'s post below, Aesop Rock's new album comes out tomorrow, and it's really good. To be honest, I was getting a little worried about Def Jux, but I'll Sleep When You're Dead and None Shall Pass are both among my very favorite new records of the past... while.

Anyway, the whole Aesop disc can be played on his Myspace right now, so if you're really broke and technologically illiterate you can hold your tape deck up to the speakers and make a copy of it that way, old school. (And if you do that, you're probably a HMR staff member.)
