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.

Bandcamp: Go Buy Some Music





Some of you may have heard, but today, March 20th, Bandcamp is waiving its revenue shares in an effort to help support artists during the Coronavirus pandemic. Tour ticket sales and merch sales make up a lot of an indie artist's income, and this virus has basically put a big halt to all of that.  As such, no normal Friday post today. Instead, go buy some damn music on Bandcamp! You can read more about the Bandcamp waiver HERE

If you're looking for something new to cop, here's a few suggestions that drop today on Bandcamp:


1. Time - These Songs Kill Fascists

"This is an album made as an ode to people who fought and who are fighting fascists and fascism internally and externally." HERE

2. Royal-T, Daze, & Big Bear - The Broken Plan

HERE


3. Free The Robots - Malinao 


"I am currently locked down on the island with no plans or way to make it back home until the situation settles. Until then all we can do is remain creative and positive as possible. The world is on pause, so no matter where you are; we're all in this together. Be safe everyone. Hope you enjoy this EP recorded over the past couple weeks. Much Love from the Island." HERE.

4. An Illustrated Mess - Last Night, and All Of Our Glorious Mishaps (Digital Deluxe)

"Although it wasn't our original intention, this album turned out very Navajo. With this album we did our best to illustrate an Indigenous perspective of living in a border town. The narrative tells a story of a character over the course of a weekend, while the songs themselves deal with topics such as love, depression, alcoholism, and suicide with moments of hope sprinkled in between. This album was made over the course of a year. Throughout that year we faced many obstacles, personal losses, moments of weakness, and self reflection, but in the end with the help of our family and friends we were able to make what we consider our debut album." HERE

5. TXTMS (OneWerd & Dan Dillinger) - TXTMS 

"Hailing from the SF Bay Area, and Brooklyn, NY, OneWerd and Dan Dillinger spent the better part of their early 20's developing an ear for all things underground. An affinity for heavy drum programing, layered bass tones, and distorted fuzz hammered out a unified vision for their debut project. Joined by underground stalwarts Gajah and Megabusive, and IronBar Collective mainstays Emcee Graffiti and Dephyant, the project's lenses encompass social decay, and the shifting foundations of cultural and artistic consumption. That same lens also draws tightly inward, capturing the mental collapse and aggression borne of these environmental factors. Though it may have taken its time incubating, these songs are initial carvings into material that promises to be mined even further." HERE.
