Description:
There are two sides to the hillStylistically split on two CDs - a "Skull" disc and a "Bones" disc - Skull & Bones is another uncompromising set from Cypress Hill. The "Skull" disc features Cypress Hill's trademark dusted hip-hop sound, while the "Bones" disc showcases the new Cypress Hill rock sound with a live band. In additon to Cypress Hill's B-Real, Sen Dog, DJ Muggs, and Bobo, members of Fear Factory (bassist Christian Olde and guitarist Dino Cazares), Rage Against The Machine (drummer Brad Wilk), Downset, and SX10 (Sen Dog's rock band) play on the release. Testimonials from Eminem, Noreaga, Everlast, and Chino Moreno from The Deftones also appear on the release. Always groundbreakers and always following their own path, Cypress Hill have created an album that shows the two sides to their sound and philosophy. Skull & Bones was produced, arranged and mixed by Muggs. Michael Barbiero (Metallica, Guns'n Roses) was the mix engineer. The lead track from Skull & Bones is "(Rock) Superstar". Immediately added to Triple J on high rotation, it's also featured as a "Ripe Clip" on Channel V and moved into nuclear rotation! Taken from the "Bones" disc, "(Rock) Superstar" is quickly proving to be the band's biggest radio track since Insane In The Brain (both here and in the US). Cypress Hill's loyal legion of hardcore hip-hop fans will find what they are looking for on the "Skull" disc, which features some of the best rhyming of the group's long and illustrious career in tracks like "Another Victory" ("I got you stuck in the Twilight Zone of s**t"), the sing-song Latin ritmo of "Cuban Necktie" (which seamlessly rhymes Devito, Pacino, Gambino, Vinnie Barbarino, San Bernardino, Quentin Tarantino, El Sereno and Soul Assassino), the hilarious record industry snap of "Stank Ass Hoe" ("I got double-platinum records on the wall/While you got double cheeseburgers in your toilet stall"), and of course it wouldn't be a Cypress Hill album without the tribute to the herb, "Can I Get A Hit", which brings new meaning to the term, "bogart". Having finished a full dozen straight up hip-hop tracks (eleven of which appear on the record), Cypress Hill decided to do something new, and hence, the rock side of the Skull & Bones project was born. They called in some friends - Christian and Dino from Fear Factory, Brad from Rage. , Andy Zambrano and Jeremy Fliner from Sen Dog's band and Downset's Roy Lazano - and proceeded to bust loose with a hard, funky, industrial thrash that is as jarring as it is welcome.
