i just got the luger 12" on leaf yesterday. man, this shit rivals anything
i've heard out of plug. i mean, "plug 2" is still a classic, but anything
off the luger is as good, if not better: better, possibly, in that it's not
as cheesy (cheese, as we all know, ages well to a point, at which the odor
becomes overwhelming), it's more dynamic, equally as intricate (and nowhere
near as facile) and much more "musical" (in the sense that its power
doesn't seem to derive from ironic quotation and synchronic
juxtaposition...although that isn't all plug has going for it, to be sure).
anyway, i hate to praise luger only by way of contrast, so i should
probably say this is just an amazing record in its own right. extremely
listenable and satisfying on a variety of different levels.
now to find those boymerang twelves...
sc
p.s. second thought, did anyone else almost sprain their wrist seizing the
boymerang remix of collapsed lung off the decks? jeez...godawful.
