Standing On The Corner have spent a decade making work that refuses to sit still, and SOTC II is their first for XL. Gio Escobar leads, with Jack Nolan, Buz Donald, and Clerida Eltime at the core, and the fifteen tracks move between fried psychedelia, no-wave rap, doo-wop, salsa, and post-hardcore without pausing to explain the seams. The guest list runs from Sonia Sanchez and Solange to Danny Brown, Styles P, and Ladybug Mecca. A Brooklyn record about instability, made out of instability. Street date: September 11.
