Who be this undergarment-inspired fella Trunks? I only know as much as you: a Canadian emcee featured on the King Gheedora LP. I wasn’t quite expecting any rap revelations this evening, yet Trunks happens to be just that dispensing a mettlesome underground EP that surely most heads will jump on for the special herbs alone.
Unicron dropped unexpectedly like some Chris Wallace bird-shit. Fresh beats specially weeded with Metal Fingers; initially I merely skimmed with fiendish fashion to find a Doom verse much to no avail, yet was countered with a tirade of surprisingly dope dork raps delivered with sharp claws: Stan Lee, Star Wars, Clive Barker, Thor, dragons, all inclusive. Trunks is a discovery, and I’m positively paying attention now.
Nonetheless, a proportion of this shine IS pilfered by the classic (Doom studio standard) drunkard drum taps and histrionic, Lo-Fi instrumentals with breaks unmistakably retrieved from the dead-skin-celled depths of MF’s VHS collection. For all my grubby ‘Operation: Doomsday’ and ‘Mm Food’ goons, these utterly sick sounds should just about keep us at bay until the next grand solo.
Having said that, my restlessness evolves into irritation. First Lib’s resplendently laced Madvillainy Remix piece and now this Doom assembly here- how many more befitting backdrops will drop unjustly untouched by Daniel Dumile?
