5.0 out of 5 stars Best hiphop ever made, February 12, 2005

This album is amazing, the flows are some of the tightest flows Iv ever heard, the beats are so sweet. Who the hell would ever put double bass in hip-hop but necro (now im just waitng for him to throw some blast beats in there, that would be the sweetest thing ever.) . I usually only listin to metal and mostly death metal and now apparnently Death rap also. Mixing death metal imagary and lyrical content with hiphop has got to be one of the best ideas in a long time, and now hes mixing metal guitar in there too. I noticed alot of people writing these reviews said they werent all that into metal which sucks because you will probably not get 50% of the references he uses. Like when he mentions using Carcasses lyric sheet. Carcass is a huge underground death metal band. He mentions tons of underground death metal and heavy metal groups and names of people in the groups in his flows its amazing. What makes it so great is that he mixes two genres that normally dont get mixed, as most people into death metal arnt into hip hop and vice versa. Anyway this album is great Necro will own all of you.

Necro, along with everyone at Psychological Records are my guilty pleasure in life. You see, I'm strictly a metal head. I listen to Death Metal (Deicide, Morbid Angel etc.), Black Metal (Mayhem, Burzum etc.) and...well...Metal (Slayer, Metallica etc.). With that in mind, I must confess that this is one of my favorate albums of all time.

First things first, you cannot deny Necro's ability as a lyricist. He is simply amazing at rhyming and has a vast vocabulary. You don't have to get into it for the lyrics either. Necro produces all of his beats and judging by the sound of this, he is nothing short of a musical genius. He gives you that fat Brooklyn sound (Death Rap, Push It To The Limit), and not to mention some of the most evil beats constructed by man (The Dispensation Of Life And Death, Human Consumption).

The thing with Necro is the fact that his material may appeal more to metal heads then it would to hip hop heads. On this album you'll find guest appearances from metal legends of the past and future.

Allow me to do a song for song analysis.

1. Intro: A creepy intro spoken by Charles Manson himself.

2. Beautiful Music To Die To: The first song on the album. Once this is heard, you realize that Necro is up there with any Death Metal band in terms of gore and overall brutality.

3. The Dispensation Of Life And Death: Probably my favorate track on the album. This has a violin based beat that is, hands down, the creepiest thing I've ever heard put on a cd.

4. Kill That S***: A straight foreward bludgeoning of rhymes. Fast paced and to the point.

5. Pre-Fix (Skit): A very humourous and original skit. I won't ruin it for you.

6. Pre-Fix For Death: Great title track featuring Away of Voivod behind the drum kit. This one "rips through your flesh."

7. Push It To The Limit: An awesome song with a horn based street beat. Features Jamey Jasta of Hatebreed during the chorus.

8. Reflection Of Children Coming Up In The Grave: Another creepy number beat wise. This song is about growing up in the hood.

9. "It" (Skit): This one crack me up every time. It's really just taken from the movie The Silence Of The Lambs, but it'll still have you rolling.

10. Insaneology: Great metal influenced track with a great number of guest appearances, including vocals from the singer of Obituary. I swear, you'll think this is a Death Metal song during the first minute or so.

11. Nirvana: This is a good taste of the Circle Of Tyrants project that is due out later this year. Great rhyming from Necro, Mr. Hyde, Goretex, and Ill Bill.

12. 86 Measures Of The Game: Necro's opinions on how women should be treated. Hilarious and clever.

13. Empowered: Another metal influenced track.

14. Kid Joe (Skit): A hilarious flow from everyone's favorate Kid Joe.

15. Human Consumption: A song about cannibalism. Probably one of Necro's most clever lyrical content since Dead Body Disposal.

16. Evil S***: Extremely evil song with an extremely evil beat.

17. You Did It: Necro addresses suicide unmercifully.

18. Rogue (Skit) : Another Silence Of The Lambs skit

19. Death Rap: One of the greatest beats Necro has ever done. Also features Sabac.

20. Watch Your Back: A rap metal masterpiece.

21. Food For Thought: A silly song about take out food.

22. Important Statistics (Skit): A very important listen.

23. Senseless Violence: Another sick song with a girl singing an extremely vulgar chorus.

24. Push It To The Limit (NYHC Mix): A metal version of Push It To The Limit

25. Outro: A short outro done by Charlie himself.

All in all, you get 25 tracks without a mediocre song. Highly recommended for metal heads and gore fiends alike!

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply, one of the best, February 1, 2005

By 

John "Ira" (New Jersey) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pre-Fix for Death (Audio CD)

A rap cd with appearences by Jamey Jasta, Sean Martin ( both in Hatebreed) DJ Sid Wilson (Slipknot) Trevor Peres John Tardy (both in Obituary) Away (Voivod) Dan Lilker, (Brutal Truth, SOD, Nuclear Assault)80% of those metal musicians are LEGENDS.AMoungst others are the usual suspects Ill Bill, Sabac Red, Mr. Hyde and Goretex (all great rappers) While this is Necro's first dive into metal I knew him and other pshyco+logical artists loved metal. There were signs Necro might do this because other then Goretex's the art of dying the four other cds Necro produced in the last 6 months have metal versions of a rap song found on that cd.Now I will not go on about what an amazing producer Necro is and how awesome he is for producing 10 albums in one year because we all know about it know. While Necro still keeps the same flow he had on I need drugs and Gory days (same thing with the lyrical content) while Necro is one of the most violent rappers ever (now that is saying something) there is intelligence behind the madness. Considering how good I need drugs and Gory Days are, this is saying something calling this Necro's best. Insaneology is Necro's best song since " Your f*cking Head Split" This is in my top 10 favorite albums of 04 and my favorite rap cd of the year ( closely beind is Ill Bill's Whats wrong with Bill?) Enjoy.
