Stop pining for Cannibal Ox

Enough already. Maybe they’ll get back together and make another album, maybe they won’t. But with two recent releases from Vast Aire, Deuces Wild and the excellent Mighty Joseph collaboration with Karniege, and now a new album from his better half, Vordul Mega, on the way, who needs it? Sure, The Cold Vein was dope, but were you really feeling El-P’s surrealism all that much? I’ll take some good ol’ boom-bap any day.

Exxxxxxtreme

Remember them? Yeah, they’re back, and hearing this song kinda makes me miss “More Than Words.”

You’re damned if you do, damned if you don’t. Extreme would be just as comical if they tried to update their sound as they do by not. But at least they’re still rocking.
