Project Landlord [PA]

Performer: Chrome
Distributor: WEA (Distributor)

Notes: Recording information: Hypnotize Minds Studio. Down with Three 6 Mafia, the Memphis rapper known as Chrome follows up his 2005 debut, STRAIGHT TO THE PROS, with another solid effort on the Hypnotize Minds label. PROJECT LANDLORD sees Chrome-spraying hardcore rhymes over high-energy crunked-up beats. The dirty south lyricist cleverly reworks the chorus from "Proud Mary" to construct the low-rider anthem, "Big Wheels."

Reimagining the cosmic angle of Hawkwind and the harsh psychedelia of Silver Apples for an urban dystopia, San Francisco's Chrome represented the extreme experimental wing of early punk and were instrumental in the creation of industrial music. The band underwent many line-up changes in their lifespan, but either founder Damon Edge or guitarist Helios Creed--recruited after their 1976 debut--or both were constants. Over the course of their late '70s albums, the band's sound morphed from noise-based, heavily affected guitar psych to a more synthesizer- and programming-driven approach. Damon Edge recorded many solo albums under the Chrome moniker in the mid '80s and early '90s, while Helios Creed retook the reins when Edge died from heart failure in 1995.
