Video: El-P “Time Won’t Tell”

El-P's new instrumental album, Weareallgoingtoburninhellmegamixxx3, is in stores now via Gold Dust. It's often a difficult task to capture the feel of an instrumental song through video (especially when the beats are as sick, twisted, and perverse sounding as EL-P's), but they pulled it off well with this one. "The video for El-P's 'Time Won't Tell' is inspired by a childhood memory of director Shan Nicholson, who grew up in the 'Old New York' during a time when necessity often bred creativity. This video depicts a young boy innocently finding a way to embrace his imagination amid an urban wasteland." In other El-P news, he orchestrated the release of his friend Camu Tao's posthumous album, King of Hearts, which is out today via Fat Possum.

    The anticipation for someone to rap was killing me. But it was a nice instrumental. Maybe someone will rhyme over it. Preferably J cole or Sudan. His mixtape Episode 4 is out today http://www.mediafire.com/file/b779bdc688cvwbb/Episode IV _ A New Hope.zip

    @snarky mcdoof: Allow me to answer that ignant-ass question straight and without any snarkiness. Yes, plenty of people still care, especially now that he has released this amazing piece of music.

    Love your beats El-P but miss your rhymes. Who can match El-P with these sick, disgusting sounds? Nobody!

    great soundtrack with the headphones on when strollin about. refreshing not to have a bunch of self obsessive MCs braggin’ bout how expensive their jeans are, all going off in my ear like a car alarm and shit. Great clip. fan of the post-apocalyptic genre. El-p is the doomsday master
