Artist: AZ
One of the numerous thoughtful, literate gangsta rappers to emerge from New York during the mid-'90s, AZ never garnered the attention of peers like Nas and Jay Z.

Artist: Mathlete
Mathlete is the duo of Mike Downey (guitar, synthesizer) from Wolfie and Dan Marsden (synth, rhythm machine).

Artist: D.A.M.
Like most late-80s/early-90s British thrash bands, Morecombe's D.A.M.

But, backtracking... [+] Read More
Artist: Jungle Rot
Formed in 1995, Chicago's Jungle Rot is a living anachronism in the new millennium thanks to their retro-death rock style.
