Black Samson, The Bastard Swordsman [進口 CD]

The bass hits hard on "Iron God Chamber" and the guest verses from Method Man and Ghostface really tie the whole Wu-Tang sound together. This import CD has a raw energy that's hard to find elsewhere.

The import CD arrived sealed and intact, and the tracklist alone makes it worth the wait—getting all those Wu-Tang affiliates on one disc is exactly what I hoped for. Mathematics’ production keeps the gritty, old-school energy alive from start to finish.

I was hoping for more variety in the guest verses given the all-star lineup, but the production from Mathematics is solid and keeps the classic Wu-Tang vibe throughout. It's a decent listen for hardcore fans, but nothing groundbreaking.
