Personally i think its a classic 10/10

Wot you all think ??

Re: Canibal Ox - The Cold Vein
 

Production's 10 for me but lyrically it isn't as good in my opinion so I gotta give it a 9.

Re: Canibal Ox - The Cold Vein
 

a 10 for me, one of my all time favourites, post up a track list too

Re: Canibal Ox - The Cold Vein
 

8/10 I thought it was pretty good but I havent listened to it that much.

Re: Canibal Ox - The Cold Vein
 

The album is timeless even a century from now it will still be bangin' a true reflection of the hiphop culture.

Re: Canibal Ox - The Cold Vein
 

Just fantastic album. El-P production at his peak, along with Fantastic Damage that is almost a sequal to this.

And the lyrics from vast aire are on another level. 10 from me.

Re: Canibal Ox - The Cold Vein
 

when you listen to at more and more, it really hits in

Re: Canibal Ox - The Cold Vein
 

imo one of the best cd's i own timeless production lyrics are great

Re: Canibal Ox - The Cold Vein
 

We need another album like this el-p/ox. The production fits the benefit on this whole album; the battle for asguard is an 11/10 every lyricist and of course the percusion isnt short. scream pheonix,painkillers always hits;ridiculoid mmm tight... these cats (ox & producto) need to shit or get off the toilet son

Re: Canibal Ox - The Cold Vein
 

10 all time classic as ^^ said we need mor like this

Re: Canibal Ox - The Cold Vein
 

I havent even heard of it?

When was it released and what's its style?

Re: Canibal Ox - The Cold Vein
 

9/10, could've had iller lyrics.

beats are timeless

Re: Canibal Ox - The Cold Vein
 

It is very abstract hip hop. Some people compare it to 93 wu, I guess because it does sound gutter but don't expect any kung fu samples. They got a lot of metaphors and Vast Aire has a very laid back flow but still its a great album, you gotta listen to it more than once to appreciate it, just loop it on random in the background and its tight. El-P's beats have a lot of depth and richness to it, definitely sounds like some basement type stuff.

I liked raspberry fields, Straight off the DIC, Ridiculoid(nice twist on the salt and peppa chorus!), ox out of the cage, painkillers, real earth, battle for asgard(makes you want to fight someone), pigeon, and some of the others. For the most part the LP is solid but again you have to listen to it more than once to appreciate it. Its beatiful. It was released in 2003 I believe.

BTW noone mentioned this hear yet, but Cannibal OX recently inked a deal with Def JUX for another LP(or LPs) for 2006 with EL-P doing ALL the production once again! It will come out after EL-P finishes his sophmore album.
