Albums I Love: Liquid Swords

Yesterday Pitchfork announced that in addition to Sonic Youth perfroming Daydream Nation at Pitchfork Fest, Slint will be doing their Spiderland and the GZA will be doing Liquid Swords. I’m a Big Wu-tang Clan fan and this is an amazing hip-hop album. The entire clan shows up for this, like most of the ’90s solo Wu-Tang stuff, and I’m curious as to how many of the clan will be backing “The Genius” for this special show. If you’re not familiar with this record, it is a must have so check it out:
