On SWEEP THE LEG, its second album for the revered Definitive Jux label, the New York City-based hip-hop act Hangar 18 presents a loose, fun-loving set of beat-driven tracks. In addition to production by DJ paWL, the record features behind-the-boards work by Blockhead (Aesop Rock) and a guest shot by Atmosphere's Slug (on the slinky "Dance with Me"), ensuring that steady-flowing rappers Alaska and Windnbreeze are in good company throughout this assured sophomore outing.Alternative Press (p.187) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "The positive-minded 'Think Big' is the best Golden Age tune released this year, with its honking sax lick and 'go-go get it' affirmation." CMJ (p.14) - "The duo constructs tightly knit flows that effortlessly fall from the tongue....Hangar 18 recalls the early '90s when groups weren't afraid to get equally gritty and goofy."

Sweep The Leg album
$12.79 Two years in the making, and combining two of the best underground hip-hop artists of the early 2000s, this collaboration between MF Doom and Madlib has been appropriately dubbed MADVILLAINY. With both men known for their stunning soundscapes, rhyming skills, and schizophrenic personalities, the duo decided to have Madlib concentrate on the beats and let Doom handle the lyrics.
In mixing their comic-book-like personas, Madlib and Doom play to their nearly superhuman strengths; while some other collaborations of this caliber seems forced and lop-sided, there is absolutely no filler here--just undiluted beats and rhymes, best exemplified by the singles "America's Most Blunted" and "All Caps." Lib's inventive production ...

The end result is still an incredibly cohesive LP that relies on elevated lyricism and true-school reverence. Phonte and Big Pooh continue to hone their already-impressive mic skills, deconstructing ...

Sweep The Leg music CDs
$9.35 Don't be fooled by the Robert A. Heinlein-inspired sci-fi artwork design gracing Super Heavy Goat Ass' 60,000 Years album (and don't even ask about the title -- one can only guess); there are certainly a few elements of space rock to be found here, but not nearly as much as straight-up, butt-kicking hard rock shot through with a good batch of Southern flavorings befitting the band's Austin, TX, home base. In fact, aside from SHGA's self-consciously goofy name, their overall musical aesthetic recalls many of the post-stoner rock generation of the mid-2000s (Solace, Halfway to Gone, Black NASA, etc.) for prizing a somewhat more understated means of songwriting to get their points across (their predecessors often relied on sheer volume and bludgeoning force). That's not to say that most Super Heavy Goat Ass songs lack for any raucousness (they don't), and singer Russell Abbott's gruff, expletive-laced delivery is even more amusingly belligerent than most (his occasional John Garcia-isms thankfully appear to be more accidental than contrived), but it's very likely that impatient stoner rock fans may lose interest before these have a chance to reveal their strengths. That's why, at their best, album highlights "Backside," "Druglord," and "Best Friend" temper their slow-building themes, frequent mid-paced grooves, and loads of distinctive dual-guitar harmonies with some roaring-good riffs to kick them up the ass. Additional standout "SSOB" doesn't even need that help, serving up an especially memorable piece of bluesy space rock (there it is, at last!), while, with incrementally rootsy parting shots such as "Built to Last" and "Soundman," the bandmembers pay their mandatory tribute to the legacy of fellow Texans ZZ Top (by way of Ted "Gonzo" Nugent). Overall, 60,000 Years is a highly recommended album for dedicated stoner rock enthusiasts, but not as recommended for the casual fan. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia
Super Heavy Goat Ass: Russell Labbott (vocals, guitar); Derek Halfman (guitar); Brent Boepple (bass instrument); Tim Hurt (drum).
The Milky Way Galaxy, 2074: a craft not unlike a goat skull is coasting in its orbit around the planet once known as "Earth." Within each eye-socket window sits two men-all four of them excessively weary, their eyes bloodshot; they appear lethargic yet amused. Space madness? We know not; but their arrival from a 70-year interplanetary tour has undoubtedly taken its toll. The craft creeps beyond the range of the human world's observatory and only with a cyclopean telescope can one read its moniker: SuperHeavyGoatAss. Go ahead, laugh. Our boys from Austin, Texas have bestowed upon themselves one of the funniest and perfectly appropriate band names, ever-but there's a lot more to 'em. If we were to play intellectual and delve into the significance and etymology of the name SuperHeavyGoatAss-split it open, peel away its flesh and secure it to the cutting board with steak knives so we may examine the insides, we'd understand more about the band and their music (specifically their new album 60,000 Years).Super (Su"per, adv.: to an extreme degree) Heavy (Heav"y, a.: Loud; deep; -- said of sound; as, heavy thunder) Goat (Goat, n.: a ruminant having a beard and straight horns - symbolic of evil/Satan) Ass (Ass, n.: domestic beast of burden) This band and this album are everything you want in your rock n' roll-and more: simple, unaffected, loud, cool, a little nasty and a lotta fun. Know this: when SuperHeavyGoatAss throws down, it's for real. "When we come to play," ...
