#The mouse and the mask full
The full 7-track 2006 DangerDOOM EP Occult Hymn is included, as well as two previously unreleased tracks, making this the definitive DangerDOOM collection. Barnes & Noble® has the best selection of R&B and Hip-Hop Underground Rap CDs. This deluxe 3xLP vinyl reissue courtesy of DOOM’s own label Metal Face Records also contains several bonus cuts not on the original album. The Mouse and the Mask, a collaboration between perennially out-there rapper MF Doom and Grey Album mastermind Danger Mouse, pays homage to the Cartoon Network’s postmodern Adult Swim series. Remember ALL CAPS when you spell the man name. The Mouse And The Mask also features guest spots from Talib Kweli, Ghostface Killah, and Cee Lo Green. Among DOOM’s most successful projects both critically and commercially, the album was inspired by Cartoon Network’s late-night Adult Swim programming slate, and includes appearances from several Adult Swim characters, including Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Space Ghost, Harvey Birdman, and more. The album features CeeLo Green (also of Gnarls Barkley), Talib Kweli, Ghostface Killah. Granted, none of these cartoon characters are rappers, and they're wisely. Completely contradicting their allegiance to underground hip-hop and all its non-commercial hype, DJ Danger Mouse and MF Doom. The Mouse and the Mask was produced by Lex super-producer Danger Mouse. Their partners for The Mouse and the Mask are the characters of Cartoon Network's Adult Swim programming block, a cast whose creators share with Danger Mouse and MF Doom the same influences (obscure '70s superheroes, some making a resurgence on Adult Swim) and motivations (a parade of surrealist fantasies intersecting with real life, like the crusading happy meal that airs on Cartoon Network as Aqua Teen Hunger Force). Official Metalface Version, including the Occult Hymn EP available on vinyl for the first time, and two previously unreleased tracks.īack in 2005, super producer Danger Mouse and masked hip-hop supervillain DOOM came together for The Mouse And The Mask, a collaborative album released under the name DangerDOOM. It’s probably the product placement of The Mouse and the Mask.
