Public Enemy - Miuzi Weighs A Ton

 

[WashYourHands]

Tons of American murder ballads - Stagger Lee, Me and My Uncle, Omie Wise all the way through to the Grateful Dead’s Loser but if I post those there might be a ban pending. Folklore Horror anthology has a write up on the realm

Avant dub dudes Seekers with an album composed largely of the sound of guns being assembled and disassembled:


Remarkable in concept and execution.
