UnIndian II<\/strong> is written and vocalized by Anticon co-founder Pedestrian<\/strong>, but the voices and sounds of friends; Jel<\/strong>, Odd Nosdam<\/strong>, Sole<\/strong>, Josiah Wolf<\/strong>, Walter Gross<\/strong>, Bomarr<\/strong>, Telephone Jim Jesus<\/strong>, Robert Werner<\/strong>, and Paperbark<\/strong> are its pulse.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It’s compass includes a consideration of the meaning of songmaking (“Anything<\/strong>“), what it’s like waking up in Oakland the morning after witnessing state murder at neighboring San Quentin (“Volume of the Seven Seas<\/strong>“), an alternative history of Dre and Snoop’s “Lil Ghetto Boy,” (“Oakland Hosannah<\/strong>“), post-Katrina police violence and disaster capitalism (“Resurrecting Morning<\/strong>“), and field recording ballads and meditations, lit up by modular synths, on hook-ups and other kinds of fugitive affections (“Songs Not Songs<\/strong>“).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This is other than, yet quintessentially, a hip-hop album, and one determinedly in dialogue with the dead. Its accompanying chapbook includes new and revised lyrics, a cycle of poems entitled,”A Saint’s Day Stand at the Oakland Swap Meet<\/strong>,”and an elegy, “Tomorrow is in the Bones (for Brendan Whitney)<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This album is available on clear, 180g 12″ vinyl<\/strong> for the first time ever and includes a lyric book<\/strong> with additional poetry<\/strong> and a digital download card<\/strong>. Pre-order your copy now to ensure you get a copy before they go out of print!<\/p>\n
