Dark and exhilarating, the third album from rapper and producer ELUCID is a next-level hip hop delivery. With backing from NYC drummer and multi-instrumentalist Jon Rellen and Irreversible Entanglements bassist Luke Stewart, REVELATOR is a claustrophobic, glitched out and overblown thrill ride. ELUCID's own delivery is laden with urgent energy, both hopeful and paranoid, while guests like billy woods and Skech185 make for even more crucial listening. - Flying Out
Black Ice Edition Limited to 300 Copies Worldwide
A raw, crackling urgency runs through rapper-producer ELUCID’s new album REVELATOR like an underground power line. There is no space here for sepia-toned reminiscences or indulgent self-mythologizing. Intellectual rabbit holes have been filled in with concrete and reverb (rebar, right?); there is nowhere to hide and no off ramp from the audio Autobahn that ELUCID has fashioned—a renegade Robert Moses with gold fronts, bulldozing the homes of the powerful and the complicit. REVELATOR brims with the energy of now, with a refusal to look away. Carpe diem in a murder one mask.
