Modern Minstrels

Yo DJ HAL Bring That Beat Back

The Graduate by Post-Punk Laptop Rap extraordinaire MC Lars is now available on the iTunes Music Store, a full month before it hits store shelves.

I've listened to the album numerous times the last couple days, and I'm definitely digging it. His songs are filled with catchy beats and an onslaught of lyrical references to everything ranging from references to the music industry, to science fiction, to literary classics such as Moby Dick.

You can stream full versions of three of the album's best songs (Generic Crunk Rap, Hot Topic is NOT Punk Rock, and Download This Song) over on his My Space page.

My one disappointment with the CD is that it two songs (iGeneration and Signing Emo) that were on The Laptop EP. I thought they might be new mixes of the songs, but alas they aren't.

If you haven't heard MC Lars before, go check him out! And if you have heard of him, then I have no doubt that you're already rocking out to the album.
