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.

Third Sight - From Outta Nowhere (1993)

 

 

 Hey guys, had a bit of trouble coming up with something to post for today, and then with a brilliant flash of light this appeared (okay actually one of y'all hooked it up, and for the life of me I can't remember who but thanks!). From Outta Nowhere is the first release from South Bay Area group Third Sight, those guys who did "Smegma in D Minor" among other frankly amazing songs.

From Outta Nowhere is a very short but very sweet little project. It contains three otherwise unreleased tracks from the group and one song "Gunshot Victim" that is featured on their awesome Orchids & Corpses compilation (get that one now please).

For fans of that gritty San Jose experimental and intelligent with a heaping dose of legitimacy and swagger style. Dave Dub, Haez One, Joe Cutter, Matt Gamin etc. This is to my knowledge one of the earliest examples of this truly unique style of West Coast hip hop.

    1. Huh, that's too bad. I guess the quality is just incentive to buy the tape when they re-release it :-)

    2. haha maybe the seller did it on purpose, I bought the mp3s from a guy online that made a digital rip from his tape for 150 bucks lol.
