Anti-Crew Leaves us Begging for More!!
author: Gus Rodeen
Best work to date? I don't believe so, I know so! Once again Anti-Crew has invaded my mind and left behind what can only be described as AMAZING! This album leaves you yearning and begging for more...and this is just an EP!! Are you kidding me!!
The dynamic duo of DJ Eternal and FlareThaRebal return for round 3 and this time they've brought company. After years of being a two man show, the duo have joined forces with a crew of outstanding musicians. With all their talent and skills combined the end result, of what was already great, is now amazing! The crew is now stronger than ever and the music speaks for itself.
The album kicks off with a familiar song (Sky High) from one of Anti's previous releases. The track now sounds better than ever. You can hear each separate instrument and the lyrics flow smoother throughout the song. Sky High isn't the only track that was refreshed on Foundation, "Keep Talkin" also makes a triumphant return.
Personally, I was mostly impressed with a few of the new tracks on the album. With the help of a full band it would appear that Flare and Eternal can concentrate now more on writing and introducing fresh ideas. Never afraid to mix up their style a bit, the crew provides us with an excellent mix of hip hop, rap, and rock. This time around they've added a new element to their music, singing.
DJ Eternal lends his voice to the chorus of the track "After the End" and does so in brilliant fashion. Hands down it is the best track on the album, followed closely by "One Time". The track "One Time" starts off with a heavy guitar riff showcasing the new sound of the band and then fades into over five minutes of chill lyrics, ending in explosive Anti-Crew style.
The new album is an EP including seven awesome tracks. The fact that it is not a full album does not discredit or hold it back in anyway. Foundation is the bands best work to date without a doubt. Anyone looking for a great album in a genre saturated with over used cliches, recycled beats, and unoriginal sound should definitely pick this one up!

Fantastic

From the beginning of their musical careers into their first and second full EP, their style has truly advanced into a style of their own. From the melodic 311 sounding One Time to the unique values of "Matt and Jeff's Bogus Adventure", Anti-Crew continues to grow into a bigger and better band. With local super star Mac Lethal gracing Keep Talkin' '08, Anti-Crew will be pushing very hard in to break into the main scene in the next five years.

Primary Encounter.

You may think that you've reached the majestic cliffs of sonic Dover, you may think you've found the hidden level in the desert theme world of Super Mario DS, you may think that you're listening to James Earl Jones read War & Peace on an audio mp3; only to navigate reality and realize that you are listening to A. Crew's new release, Foundation. The chemistry of the band-mates and their charisma make this album an undeniably successful symphony that evokes pride and satisfaction. Bravo!
