blacknerdproblems:When I saw a photo of Preytorians and received a brief blurb about their vibe, here’s what I expected: 480p resolution YouTube videos of dudes cosplaying in Ren-faire attire rapping pretty decently over early 2000’s-style beats at a convention. … Preytorians? I’d never heard of them before last week. The indie hip-hop trio includes Kielen King, Demond Clark, and Sean Wynn. King and Wynn, having both hailed from Portland, had worked together previously before all collaborating online with Chi-town’s Desmond Clark via social media.These dudes are talented individually, but together they form a powerhouse, which brings us to their debut album: Warmusic: Past and Future. I listen to a fresh album in bits and pieces before I go in to digest the whole thing, which helps me determine whether I dig the sound, or if I’d rather call it quits than commit to what could be up to an hour of listening to an album straight through.I only needed a good couple of seconds before I decided I wanted the album in its entirety. The album title, Warmusic, is in itself a great description of the work; Past Wars throws rap bars over music you could picture in a war movie. Preytorians describes themselves as “vanguards of truth,” and on this album, they use the turbulent emotions of wartime to inspire listeners rather than to invoke terror or pain.My favorite element of this album is the uniqueness of its’ sound; it’s broken up into two parts, each completely different in style. Past Wars gives you a more epic, battle soundtrack vibes while Future Wars gives you modern electronic sounds and cool beats.Their music can be found everywhere from iTunes , Google Play, to Amazon, Spotify and Bandcamp. Be sure to check out their website and of course, follow them on Twitter and Facebook!Read on here [x] -- source link
