VINYL TUESDAY: EXCLUSIVE 10-INCH FROM CZARFACE (INSPECTAH DECK, 7L AND ESOTERIC) FEATURING MF DOOM!

czarface 2It’s Vinyl Tuesday! Record Exchange customers receive up to $5 in used vinyl* with every $25 in new vinyl purchased and have access to early and exclusive releases. This week’s releases:

CZARFACE – Ka-Bang! 10-inch color picture disc
It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s CZARFACE & MF DOOM! Who better to team up with the boom-bap hero de jour CZARFACE but the super-villain himself … the masked man known as MF DOOM! “Ka-Bang!” accomplishes just that, and is taken from the bestselling Every Hero Needs A Villain, the sophomore album from CZARFACE, the collaborative stylings of Wu-Tang Clan’s Inspectah Deck and indy rap vets 7L & Esoteric. On it, the three MCs assemble for some clobberin’ time over a hypnotically sparse and bass heavy track from DJ 7L. The picture disc 10-inch also contains the lyrical krypton of “Deviatin’ Septums” (only available digitally until now), plus the mighty “Ka-Bang! (Suckface’s Swine Mix),” which is exclusive to this release! The b-side features instrumental versions to all three tracks. All of it is pressed on high quality 10-inch picture disc vinyl featuring the amazing comic-book-inspired art work of L’Amour Supreme of Mishka NYC fame. Side A depicts CZARFACE tangling with MF DOOM, and Side B has CZARFACE exposing his inner workings. With great power comes great responsibility! CZARFACE embraces that head on, and crusades against wack MCs across the universe!
