THE DARK CRAFTSMEN
NO SHADOW ON YOUR SUNDIAL
DROPZONE RECORDS

Tekneek & Cold Blud come out with swords swinging, their horrocore more made-for-TV than big screen splatter; in the business of beats and rhymes though, TDC are tidily stubborn on both fronts. Boom-bap with a mediaeval setting, a supernatural aura and a steel toe-cap, the reading of opponents’ last rights is carried out with methodical clarity spitting full-colour visual diagrams. The underlying feeling that these are pupils of the UK old skool are confirmed when ‘T-2000’ romps home as a late 80s explosion, as the Craftsmen carve out a highly creditable set from beneath the spotlight.
