Fuck man, I LOVE Lost, Neighbors Are Fighting is one of my favorite songs. Fuck shit up. 

But MEC, yes, I just found his SoundCloud page with his instrumentals, Jacobs Word instrumental, and a couple other beats that I don’t know if they were used. Cool shit.

TMML really could be consolidated in to one disc, they both had a shit ton of filler tracks.

Christ, man. Your font size spazzes my phone the fuck out.

As far as filler tracks, you’re absolutely right. I think Shaggy said in some interview that it was a last minute decision to make TMML into two different albums when it was originally only going to be one but maybe I just dreamed that up or something. Either way, as one album, it’s pretty solid but as two it gets boring and repetitive real fast. To my ears anyway. 

Mike Clark is running sound for Kid Rock. why would he leave? He makes more money and gets treated way better! W/W!

daisies is a post apocalyptic story about how life persists. 

The whole album has two basic themes: life is short so don’t waste it and nothing lasts forever. 

I think death pop is their strongest work conceptually and thematically it is their tightest. Everything just works so well. Except kickin kickin which i can’t wrap my head around how they can write sick a boring ass song about ninjas. 

And i think putting hate her to death on the main album was a mistake Because so many people seem to misinterpret It as them venting their own heart breaks but i think their point was about how if you let your negative emotions consume you you’ll end up destroying the things/people you love. 

I think playing in the woods is dope, and so is lost in the music. 

I love the death pop and the bonus discs.

Scruffy nailed it!

Yes! ICP and MEC BUILD songs together and kick ideas off one another and the finished product is quality music.

You can tell what was rushed and what had the man hours put in. For gods sake J stated he didn’t smoke the entire Death Pop sessions and drank herbal tea! Since twizted kicked rocks Its awesome they only want to focus on the group but if it means quantity over quality I think they should take their time and deliver a solid project.

Times change and so does the sound of music I understand that, Ones entire mentality changes over time but unless Clark is producing for them I fear it will just be them trying to clone what they had with him.

I really do think MEC is ICP’s Missing Link.

mdp took three years to record an album with an hour long song, remix album and the exrta  album . those beats  were left overs

mec had.. bpb took i think 3-5 months to record   creativity is a switch either its on or off. no matter who the producer. mml was a 3o sumthin track  broke up in 3 . they didnt have to do the outakes. but they did and they had dope tracks on theyre all the way around it was a solid from the concept and the album, nothing against twiztid but they had 3 years to make a 9 track album without all the skits inbetween. they shoudl of just saved  the new nightmare get twzitid and the darkness and put it all together 

Go and listen to MEC’s soundclick page with his beats that the guy posted up above, his beats hit so much harder than now a days. now it sounds like everything is totally compressed, the drums don’t even sound anything like that. If he went back to those drums and them type of sounds I think his music would be dope. My biggest gripe with ICP’s music is the vocals are over top of EVERYTHING and everything underneath it is compressed like hell. Like to me, it just sounds like a beat is low underneath it and the vocals are right up on top of it outshining everything, nothing hits hard. I can’t stand that sound with ICP. 

MEC’S beats used to be so dope, I really don’t understand what happened :( I do want him back, but I want him to return to the original sound he brought not this shit he’s putting out now. If you listen to house of wax then listen to those beats there’s a huge difference. They just sound wack as all hell

He used to sample drum breaks a lot more, not programmed. A lot of the programmed ‘clean’ drums sound souless and sterile compared to say the drums that were used on Riddlebox and Milenko.
