Underground Fossils is run by Dimxsk and often by Trylemma, who is on a hip hop spiritual journey in the Himalayas and may not be back for a bit. Posts are every Friday, usually some quality old sh*t but sometimes promotional posts or "reviews". We do all we can to make sure we don't post stuff that (1) You can still reasonably buy from the artist directly, (2) You can reasonably buy secondhand for cheap, (3) You can download easily elsewhere, (4) The artist(s) asks us not to for any reason. Rips will include our own personal rips, old scene rips, and random web rips.

Carnage the Executioner - Just in Case You Missed Them (2009)





End of the week again, and our pleasure to bring you this gem. Carnage is in my opinion one of the most underrated emcees in the entire indie world. Coming up in the same arena around the same time as the more well-known Rhymesayers affiliated rappers Slug, Eyedea and Brother Ali, Carnage distinguishes himself with a versatile (and of course fast) rhyme style, blistering beatbox ability and a live show that recruits new fans at every venue.

Just in Case You Missed Them was a mixtape style CDr put out by Fifth Element Online to bridge the gap between the sensational Booka B produced Sense of Sound and his full length solo album Worth the Weight. Twenty five tracks long, it includes never before heard collaborations with Face Candy, a few unreleased bangers such as the dope "No Leads" as well as some oldies with NEMNOCH and a handful of previously released collaborations some of you will probably have already heard.

This album is a must have for any fan of Carnage, but any fan of rap in general shouldn't be able to help being impressed with his technical skill and dope songwriting ability. Check it out!

This post coincides with the (hopefully) imminent retail release of Ravenous, Carnage's (by my count) sixth official release. Both Trylemma and I have heard it, and I personally think it's fantastic. Stay tuned for a more in depth review of Ravenous, at this point set to drop 04/12/19 and well Worth the Wait!
