.. :: Hirntot in the crosshairs :: ..

"Behind Enemy Lines" is probably without question one of the most important and most hyped releases Blokkmonsta and Co. The indexing of 7 label releases (Greatest Hits, May 1 Rockfall: EP, In hell are 1 + 2, etc.) and additional charges of, among others, sedition and death threat, gave for Blokkmonsta, Uzi and Schwartz the occasion of their experiences on the one-year trial, which ended with fines and probation, to work on CD. So recently appeared "Behind Enemy Lines", which was announced about two months before release by 8 shouts of Blokk, Uzi, Schwartz, Kaisa, gynecologist and other well-known German rappers. Although the shouts were largely useless and you did not get to hear much news made it the Warzezeit on the release date almost Unbearable. On 19/09/08, it was finally over and "Behind Enemy Lines" was in the CD shelves. Alone, the fat cover of Smerli makes a purchase almost inevitable and the CD stands is immediately apparent.

But unfortunately I have to say that the album is not the best album by far is Hirntot after repeated Through listening. This is by no means the fact that there are dealing with an "ordinary" rap album, so none of the usual Psycho style of the label, but simply that can not be the subjects raids, court cases and media coverage process on an entire album length. An EP would here have done it more because you would have some of the tracks can really save. Nevertheless, the album is full packed with highlights. For example, the "Posse indexing track" Kaisa, gynecologist, Manny Marc, MC Basstard and B-Tight bearing the name "Mundtot". The beat is albeit become very varied very fat, and especially the parts of gynecologist and B-Tight are amazing. Gynecologist already rapped on the "enemies of the state" song on the album Dr. Faustus about indexing but with Monika Diss on this song may well keep any of his previous parts. A true board. The second part of the song appeared on the Distributionz "You know nothing" is eiens the highlights on the album. "You know still nothing" offers a melodic melanchonisch Beat is kept very quiet. All three rap very well here and the track is in my opinion, not only thanks to Schwartz, a lot better than its predecessor.

"H * rensöhne in the scene" is a track with label colleague Dr. Jekyll. Firstly, it is rich to hear from Jekyll again, since they also suffered the Beschlagnahmungswelle ("misanthrope"), but on the other hand, the beat does not fit the song on the album. Sounds in my opinion, to oriental and does not fit into the overall concept. "Too much dirt" is one of the three solo tracks, here of Uzi. Is very interesting here, the Polish, like on the promo track "All against us", but also the German part is as usual very well rapped. The Schwartz solo track "poetic justice" is as we know it. Lyrically at the highest level but unfortunately he crashed in the chorus a bit of its high level. "6th clock in the morning" is a typical old school track as he is known primarily from Blokk. Technically alel three at the same level, this project Blokk and Schwartz out some content. However, one of aboluten About tracks on the album is without question "the dregs of society 2". The first track was "to be found German Kings" on the album Dj Wizzl complication, however, with the second part anyway not measure. Dr. Faustus presents his Chrous Part again everything in the shade, even beat Technically this track abolut top notch.

But as I said, there are "Behind Enemy Lines" some tracks that are completely unnecessary. So for me in the first place the "hated and loved" remix of Blokks Solo "Bad Blood". The original I found really fat and especially the gloomy beat made the song unverkannbar. In this remix but everything is missing. The beat is not as standard as well as the built-in Parts of Uzi and Schwartz are nonsensical. Darkroom is okay. The eponymous track of the album "Behind Enemy Lines" is probably the best known. The instrumental is already known from the whole Shouts UDN caused there always that certain feeling. But that's it. Not suitable as a beat for a rap song for me. Would rather have been recommended for the DVD. "Ambush" is Blokks solo track. Maybe it's because I've heard so much about Blokk on this subject, but I think the track is just average. "Hate Rappers" makes its weak solo track again completely forgotten. The abolute Hammer. The beat is here again in Heavy Metal style made for Blokk and brings hatred over top. Uzis cumbersome pitch goes something under, Schwartz convinced as almost always. One of the best tracks on the album.

Thus, "Behind Enemy Lines" definitely one of the best Hirntot releases, even if it does not "speak Let the weapons" for me with classics like "Slaughterhouse", or "trick or stitch 2 + 3" can keep up. All friends of the German Hip Hop scene can not I last recommended a purchase of the album for the current events, but also because you can get to the ears something like "Behind Enemy Lines" only Blokkmonsta, Uzi and Schwartz. The album leaves the joy grow even more on the DVD and it will be interesting what still awaits us from brain dead.
