Underground Fossils was an indie rap focused blog run by myself (Dimxsk) and by Trylemma, who passed August 3rd, 2024 from liver failure of unknown origin at the age of 34. We mostly posted week or twice weekly, the bulk of which were rare rips we made, found on old blogs, he acquired through his insanely broad connection to the scene, etc. We did all we could to make sure we didn't post stuff that (1) You could still reasonably buy from the artist directly, (2) You could reasonably buy secondhand for cheap, (3) You could download easily elsewhere, (4) The artist(s) asked us not to for any reason. Being involved in this blog was some of the most fun I ever had, even if at times it was time consuming, challenging or intimidating (having a readership). It was the product of one of the best friendships I've ever had. If I could say one last thing, it's to encourage all of you: if you have the time and desire, make your own UGF. Find a friend who loves this shit like you do and build it together. It will bring you incredible joy, enhance your connection to this amazing community, and change your life in unexpected and exciting ways. I know it did mine. Love you all!

Demons in Disguise / Cheap Meat Suits - Selections from Demons in Disguise / Dark City (2008 / 2010)

 


 

Sorry for the late post today, Trylemma is out of town and I didn't know he wouldn't be able to post something. Just got home from work to his note. So, since I already uploaded this stuff for a homie I figured why not publish it for everybody.

For background go to my K.Clifton post. This is dark, abstract PNW hip hop. These are incomplete albums that I received from a different PNW rapper, this upload contains two collections of songs off of the albums Cheap Meat Suits by Cheap Meat Suits and Dark City by Demons in Disguise. Both are Quiz on the raps and I believe BLVCK CEILING on beats.

Enjoy, we'll get back to writing substantive posts soon enough!

By the way, does anyone subscribe to Weird Raps emails? He wrote a very interesting article on the "optics" of white journalists commenting on hip hop, which is relevant because I'm white and a blogger is a journalist in a world where you can buy a house off a video of you drinking juice while skating to Fleetwood. Anyway here's the article in question, and here's a link to subscribe, if you like UGF you'll definitely enjoy it!

Oh yeah here's the music I posted to share:
