Baltimore hip-hop experimentalists Infinity Knives & Brian Ennals' vital second album King Cobra, a mighty and omnivorous record that pushed the duo to unstoppable creative heights.
Infinity Knives & Brian Ennals’ inexhaustible creativity had already gifted us 2020’s Dear, Sudan - a kaleidoscopic, unpredictable joyride of late night channel-hopping - and 2021’s brutal post-George Floyd manifesto Rhino XXL, but King Cobra is a new experience still. It is a masterfully executed expression of both ferocity and joy. ”Not a checklist of all the ills in the world,” say the band, “but it feels like darkness”. An expansively ambitious record, full of fire, and a thrilling new step from artists on a crucial mission.
- "A leading light of Baltimore’s experimental hip-hop scene. A brilliant, unpredictable work." - Spin
