I was looking for albums that followed that brutal, stripped-down sound found on Tical, Enta Da Stage, 36 Chambers, and other albums like that and someone pointed me to this album. Man, I didn't know what I was in for, lol

Classic, in my opinion
9/10

Great album, wouldn't call it classic though. But something like 8-9/10

i've only heard a few tracks from it. wasn't blessed enough to score myself a copy. i really liked what i heard. total Gravediggaz knock-off, but i forgive them.

USA came out in 94..
6 feet deep came out in 94 too... in august. I'm not sure which date USA came out, but I doubt they had time to make and release the album aswell as singles with videos in between august 94 and new years eve..

either way, they had quite a bit of similarities.

basically this was Russell Simmons' way of trying to recreate the Onyx sound he had the year before while also copying the obvious Rza/Gravediggaz formula.

i happen to have a copy of it and it is some crazy shit, i was quite impressed

definatley work checking out if you are doing some extra credit

Damn, does anyone know where I can get a copy of this hidden satanic gem?

The album is discontinued, but you can still pick it up at sites like half.com and amazon.com. Some of the prices are starting to get high though, so you should try to get it soon. Red Rum from the Flatlinerz and Omen(OMN99) from the Gravediggaz got together to form a group, and an album is supposed to be coming out, but it's been taking a while.

actually if my memory serves me correct gravediggaz bit flatlinaz..I think prince paul was having lable troubles so he wanted to shut them down and he heard about this new group flatlinaz ...and decided to do his own group to stuff them up.

Not 100% on this but thats what I remember.

peace be with you !

spiggity_ace · 11-03-2009, 01:02 AM

not sure botu that^ but still the flatlinerz were supposed to be the next big thing in hip hop, lol at that but anyways that ssatanic verses sogn is sick i didnt listen to nething else cuz i dont wanna get into them but that song was dope

They were the next big thing on Def Jam back in the days some people at Def Jam even didn't wanted to sign them because of that devilish stuff they was bringing but regardless of that they still gave them a chance.... Fucking fucked up that they didn't blow up because they were straight up Horrorcore !

This album has some crazy twisted tracks , it's just that they don't really have an outstanding MC like Gravediggaz and Onyx had....

I rate this album 8/10
