This is amazing. Nearly 15 years since they dropped their landmark album, The Cold Vein, Cannibal Ox are back and have dropped the artwork and tracklisting for the follow up – Blade of the Ronin.
The album is scheduled for release on March 3rd and will be featuring guest appearances from the likes of MF Doom, Elzhi, U-God and more.
Released in 2001 via El-P’s label Definitive Jux, The Cold Vein, was a cinematic showcase of Cannibal Ox’s bizarre taste and musical style. The album still stands as one of the best hip-hop albums of the 2000s.
