UPDATE: So it looks like the whole thing was a hilarious April Fool’s joke. Thanks for playing with our hearts, fuckers. Part of us STILL thinks it might be real though. Stranger things have happened.
Its no secret that we wet our pants anytime there’s new music from MF DOOM, and so its safe to say the news about an upcoming album with Flying Lotus has us very excited. The collaborative Mask of the North Star album will drop May 5 on Lex Recordings, with a host of guest appearances. Incredibly, the list includes El-P, and Quasimoto, which is surely a good sign for that long-awaited new Madvillain project. The coming together of Fly Lo and DOOM also explains why they are set to share the stage together in London on May 5, a show which we are happy to say we’ll be at. In the meantime, he’s the only bit of music from the new album we’ve had so far; Masquatch.
