Clipping. - Splendor & Misery
Clipping. - Splendor & Misery
People are harping on this one for the amount of filler tracks, and maybe rightly so. But it's a Clipping. album, and the eight full-length tracks that are here are pretty damn good, so I liked it.
Really, you can think of this as half a hip-hop album and half an experimental noise album. Put them together and you get a weird concept album about spaceships. Sounds good to me.
Their last album is probably a better introduction if you're new to the group (it's also one of the best records of 2014), but if you like strange, noisy, droney, experimental hip-hop, then you should give this one a try.
