MF Doom – Operation Doomsday (2LP Silver Cover)

$59.00

This special edition 2LP package comes housed in an all new exclusive jacket featuring DOOM’s infamous metal mask icon ebbossed out of a metallic silver foil. An absolute must have for the DOOM completist. The long awaited reissue of DOOM’s first solo gem, Operation: Doomsday. Remastered from the original Fondle ‘Em 1999 issue. Underneath his mysterious metal mask, MF DOOM hides the cachet underground legends are made of. This 19-cut deep album is ridiculously dope, in a bizarro Ol’ Dirty Bastard kind of way. Doom sounds either high or drunk on most of the tracks, his self-produced beats are gritty, and his rhyme styles are almost indecipherable. On arguably the best track, Rhymes Like Dimes, Doom weaves some pointed lyrics through his abstract wordplay, spitting ‘only in America could you find a way to earn a healthy buck / And still keep your attitude on self-destruct.’ Who You Think I Am? features DOOM’s crew M.onster I.sland C.zars, while on ? he trades hot verses with former Columbia artist Kurious Jorge. Doom’s avant-garde ghetto-rhyme philosophies take even more intentionally weird twists on Tick, Tick… where he and guest MC MF Grimm’s flows warble over a rhythm track whose tempo speeds up and slows down continually.
