Crack Rock makes me laugh. I try to listen to it seriously but I just can't stop smiling and giggling.
Exactly, dude the first time listening to this when he gets mellow for a second and then outta nowhere the big CRACK ROCK CRACK ROCK right in the middle, I was bustin a gut at that. "How ya feelin girl? How's the gutter doing?"
And the drums on that track are seriously boss.
Which reminds me I had the best Endtroducing vinyl session today, Stem/Long Stem was a standout, Mutual Slump is great, Midnight in a Perfect World hits with such a swampy drum track it can't help but be the greatest song on the album. I've been thinking about this lineage of standout sample-heavy albums from Endtroducing > Since I Left You > Donuts > Cosmogramma, my buddy thinks Deadringer is just as good as Endtroducing, that one had little staying power for me. Does anyone still listen to Deadringer?
