Buzzing Seattle underground rapper AJ Suede and producer Televangel (formerly of Blue Sky Black Death) have teamed up for a second collaborative album on Fake Four Inc. Parthian Shots follows last year's release of the rapper-producer pair’s Metatron's Cube. This also marks AJ Suede’s first time appearing in vinyl format. With features by Onry Ozzborn of Grayskul and Dark Time Sunshine, Mr. Muthafuckin Exquire, Nacho Picasso and more, this is an album that underground rap fans who appreciate tastefully chosen lyrics in a moody, psychedelic soundscape will love. The direct to fan preorder of this vinyl album sold out instantly on Fake Four Inc.’s bandcamp, so this pressing is a one-time classic black colorway that will not be reprinted once sold out. AJ Suede has been praised in press outlets such as Okayplayer, Brooklyn Vegan, Bandcamp Daily, and NPR. Televangel of Blue Sky Black Death has a diehard cult fan following from his days in Blue Sky Black Black in which the group scored a 7.5 rating by Pitchfork for their album NOIR.
