Pro Reviews: Live From Planet X

EXPERT RATING:

From AMG Reviews

Originally titled Live at the DNA Lounge and given away with preorders for the instrumental collection Special Herbs, Vol. 56, Live From Planet X isn't the most vital release from MF Doom but it will satisfy both the faithful and familiar. Doom has added some "space sound effects" to this new version that fit perfectly with the album's feel since this isn't your usual live release. There's little room ambience and crowd participation is fairly absent on this straightfromthesoundboard recording, but Doom himself is all the way live, rattling off two studio albums' worth of rhymes without ever sounding spent. It's an underground lyric lover's dream, and there are early era hitsaplenty with the best of Operation: Doomsday and some assorted singles getting righteous workouts. The flow is from the street to outer space as the rapper gets looser as he goes and the show ends in a trippy cacophony of melting sound effects and turntables grinding to a halt. Bummer that it's all on one track on the CD, but if Doom's making a point; point taken. Live From Planet X has its highlights, but if the listener has the time, it is better taken as a 40minute journey. Doom's relentless verbal attack is overwhelming this way and while any of his more mindaltering studio albums are better introductions to the artist, Live From Planet X works just fine as Doom purchase number two, especially if you're all about the venomous verse.
