3LP - Aesop Rock - Skelethon (10 Year Anniversary Edition)

2LP + 12" - cream & black marble-colored vinyl

Initially released in 2012, Aesop Rock's sixth studio album "Skelethon" marked a significant moment in the rapper's career. It had been 5 years since his previous effort "None Shall Pass" was released, and his former label had been shuttered. Entirely self-produced, "Skelethon" became his first solo release on Rhymesayers Entertainment.

Throughout the album's 15 tracks, he meticulously exhumes and examines these skeletons, exploring everything from death to distrust, insecurity and isolation, with moments of humor and hope scattered throughout.

Upon release, "Skelethon" was praised for its intricate storytelling that expertly balanced abstract imagery with concrete details, and its immersive production incorporating sample-based beats with dusty pianos, distorted guitars, and psychedelic synths.

In celebration of its 10th anniversary, a limited edition 3xLP vinyl package includes a gatefold jacket with revised art layouts, printed sleeves, inserts with full lyrics, two cream & black marble-colored vinyl, and a UV printed ultra-clear bonus disc vinyl with four exclusive bonus tracks.
