Forged in the fires of the east coast underground music scene in the '90s, experimental hip-hop pioneers, Union City, NJ-based duo Dälek has spent decades carving out a unique niche fusing hardcore hip-hop, noise and a radical approach to sound. Their brutal sonic temperament pushes rap music's capacity for noise and protest to some exhilarating conclusions. For their 2022 and eight album, 'Precipice', Dälek unleashes a work that is practically bristling with fury and power. Predominantly the work of the core duo, Will Brooks, aka MC Dälek and Mike Manteca (Mike Mare), 'Precipice' features a guest appearance of Adam Jones of Tool on one of the album's tracks. The band has enlisted Paul Romano (Mastodon) for the striking cover art, and the package also features the art of Mikel Elam.
