Aesop writes on his blog… “… thanks everyone for coming out to the free show in brooklyn! shit was very very fun. way more intimate than the irving show. irving is great, but a smaller venue is sometimes more excotomg. unfortunately i realize that meant a lot of people couldn’t get in, but i guess thats the downside of a free show at such a venue. i cant tell you how my i appreciate motherfuckers waiting out in the cold. if i could’ve brought you all in for scones and cocoa i would have, but scones are so wack and i had no cocoa….” [READ MORE]

What’s the Deal? Whereas the Hangar’s introductory Multi-Platinum Debut Album (2004) rode on experimental rails laid down by affiliates such as MF Doom and Vast Aire, production on the group’s Karate Kid-inspired Sweep the Leg comeback builds on brick-and-mortar boom bap basics. Lyrically, tracks such as “Jump Muthafuh” and “Bakin Soda” roundhouse ignorant rap trends while coy lyric slides like “Highly Anticipated” surreptitiously lampoon everyone from MySpace chumps to their own hyper-verbose labelmates. - Spin.com [READ MORE]

“Whether it’s the Karate Kid joke in their second album title, the AC/DC-aping cover art or a first single tourting baking soda as the new crack, it’s clear Hangar 18 represent the lighter (though stil smart) side of fabled hip hop indie Def Jux. Meanwhile, relax your vigilant listening of Tim “Alaska” Baker and Ian “Windbreeeze” McMullin’s precise, rapid-fire rhymes, and tracks like the booty-bumping “Really Wide” could conceivably sneak the Hangar’s humor into a mainstream that could desperately use it.” - Alternative Press Magazine
Spin magazine big ups the video for “Bakin Soda”
“It’s hard to decide what’s more jarring: DJ paWL’s wacky alien helmet (a giant pair of antenna headphones and a net covering his face) or his spastic dance moves while he throws around the titular additive. Either way, he’s very excited about cookin up some rock in the Pyrex - or maybe just about keeping his fridge smelling fresh.” - Spin Magazine
Boo yea - Hangar 18 tour starts end of next week!
