Looking for a breath of fresh, non-ringtone hip hop? If so, Dälek is that sweet breath. Coming from Newark, NJ, Dälek is an extremely original, true hip hop group. Layers upon layers of tasteful, melodic textures mix with intelligent lyrics that cover just about every social and political subject you can think of. While abrasive at first, this release has proven to be an extremely fruitful and interesting collection of awe-inspiring compositions that at once entrance and engage the listener.

Ace group. I honestly must listen to this and Absence much more than I do. I can;t tell which is more interesting, the abrasiveness of Absence or the soundscapes on this. And, of course, consistently intelligent lyrics.
