Jedi Mind Tricks
Album : The Torture Papers
Release Date : March 21, 2006
Babygrande

8 years ago Vinnie Paz got a couple of unknowns and dropped a 12" that got the underground community hungry. Fast forward to the present and we now see a CD so sought after, lines are being drawn to Wu-Tang status.

With production that is dark, fierce, hot and even emotional at times one cannot help but think this CD is somethng special. High end producers such as 7L and Shuko don’t disappoint and the new cats from Europe aren’t bad either. Sadly, Stoupe is not on the project. One can only wait for his instrumental and the 5th JMT CD (Servants in Heaven, Kings in Hell) for his genius. They will tell you it’s old school boom-bap rap, all you need to know is that the AOTP CD lives up to the wait.

Tracklisting :
1. Battle Cry (Sets the tone ; prepare for fire)
2. Gorillas (Back in the day reflection track, sounds like a track that would be on a 7L/Eso LP)
3. Henry the 8th (Crazy beat ! Reef stands out, this beat was made for him)
4. Pull the Pins Out (Dark anthem. Celph is a lyrical demon here & Eso RIPS it)
5. Tear it Down (Turn the volume up, this one is a banger !)
6. Into the Arms of Angels (Emotional track, very nice production)
7. The Torture Papers (Odd rock beat, sounds like a track fit for a Demigodz LP)
8. Listen Up (Celph does his thing, nice hook)
9. All Shall Perish (Bring it back ! Kamachi shines - Q-Demented takes it home)
10. Wrath of Gods (Such a Demigodz track, Apathy was made for this beat)
11. Narrow Grave (BEST BEAT EVER ! CONSTANT LOOP !)
12. Feast of Wolves (Raise the volume, roll the windows down. Banger !)
13. King Among Kings (Darkest track ever, lyrical venom)
