EL-P – Fantastic Damage (3 x Vinyl, Gatefold)
EL-P – Fantastic Damage (3 x Vinyl, Gatefold)
A confrontational and lyrically dense hip-hop album known for its abrasive production, satirical rhymes, and exploration of themes like anti-capitalism and apocalyptic futures.
The majority of Fantastic Damage was made after the breakup of El-P's previous group Company Flow. El-P recorded the album in his bedroom in Brooklyn using turntables, an Ensoniq EPS-16 Plus sampler, a Kaoss Pad and an Oberheim OB12 synthesizer. According to El-P, he primarily used a DA-88 and "barely touched ProTools".[7] It took over a year and a half to record the album.[6]
Public Enemy was a big influence on El-P's production style on the album.[6] The album contains references to Philip K. Dick and George Orwell, who El-P credits as influences on his worldview and lyrics.

Grading Definitions
Records are graded using the Goldmine system, shown below for reference:
Mint: Jacket sealed in shrink wrap or other original packaging. The vinyl in this case is sold as-is or not graded.
NM (Near Mint): No visible defects. No writing, stickers, spindle marks, or any other imperfections on label. Appears unplayed and unhandled.
VG+: Will have some light wear that may include sleeve scuffs, very light scratches, or other superficial marks.
VG: Similar imperfections to a VG+ record, but they're either more pronounced, or there is a higher number of imperfections.
G: Many imperfections, including but not limited to scratches that can be felt with a fingernail. A lot of background noise, clicks, and pops should be expected with this grade.
