Sacred Hoop is back, dropping their new album Go Hogwild available on www.sacredhoopfan.com. This is the shock studded story of two young men, immoral and hedonistic, who’s sole existence is spent satisfying their weird warped desires. Everyday was full. Every night a sensual orgy; fiendish in their curies and passion. Wealth and leisure afford them every opportunity for every gratification. A shattering study of the safe set for shock proof adults. Everything they touch is stained. Tainted with sex, liquor and drugs, where else could they try their crazed pursuit of kicks?
A reason to toast, the return of Sacred Hoop. Between Luke Sick’s well plotted lyrical debauchery and Vrse Murphy’s sonic buffet, great music gets made. Meant to shake up a squares existence, Go Hogwild is party music void simplicity. If you can’t feel this, then you can’t feel shit. Cheers. – Corey Bloom, Synthesis
Palo Alto, California, MC Luke Sick is like an intelligent, pissed-off Beastie Boy. He makes head trips and insecurity fun again. – Slug from Atmosphere, City Pages
The foundation of this brilliant record is producer Vrse Murphy’s densely layered construction, which is so thick, it’s practically unfathomable. Add to all this cuts by DJs Raw-B and the unfuckwitable Quest, and you have a contender for best underground rap record of the year. – Max Sidman, Mesh
Sacred Hoop makes music to hate your parents to, with a catalogue of youthful rebellion-inspired anthems deep enought to keep one thousand angst-filled teenagers from killing themselves…Go Hogwild, chockfull of odes to bleak futures and girls who pack guns. – Sam Ada, FADER
