RJD2 – Since We Last Spoke

Posted by jarrodperreault on June 10, 2008

Type: Rock/Hip-Hop/Phat Beats

Good Tracks:
3. “1976″ – 2:27
5. “Making Days Longer” – 4:36
6. “Someone’s Second Kiss” – 4:28
9. “Iced Lightning” – 4:29
11. “Through The Walls” – 3:27

Not bad. Sounds less hip-hoppin than his most recent release, even though it was nearer to his beat selling days. I like “Making Days Longer” alot and “Through The Walls” is a pretty strange track, kind of like rock music in shuffle mode. Also check out “The Third Hand”, which is underrated i would say.

RJD2 – The Third Hand

Posted by jarrodperreault on July 24, 2007

Type: Rock/Hip-Hop/Phat Beats

Good Tracks:
2. You Never Had It So Good
3. Have Mercy
4. Reality
5. Work It Out
6. Laws Of The Gods
7. Get It
9. The Bad Penny
10. Beyond
11. Sweet Piece
14. Just When
15. Evening Gospel

I don’t understand why everyone hates this so much. There are so many good songs on this release! This is a perfect example of Pitchfork giving a perfectly good release a shitty rating, and then everyone else has to follow suit and bash it. Way better than some of the bands they blindly hand 1000 point reviews to (examples: “TV On The Radio”, “Grizzly Bear”). Best tracks are “Have Mercy”, “The Bad Penny”, “Just When”, and “Evening Gospel”.
