 to access audio and video on collective you need real player.Preaching to the choir. There are those for whom a new Aesop Rock album is a trudge through rap’s abstract backwaters. For others it’s Christmas come early, and None Shall Pass won’t disappoint his fervent admirers. Lyrically there’s enough to feast on for a year, the relocated New Yorker (now a San Francisco resident) painting typically dense and cryptic life portraits both specific and universal, while Gun For The Whole Family satirises all-American consumerism. But his robotic flow and the generally funkless beats make this a hard slog for all but the most committed. Aesop Rock – None Shall Pass, released 27 August on Definitive Jux.
