***CSC FUNK BAND, a 10-piece supergroup featuring members of GWAR, THE USA IS A MONSTER, and TALIBAM!, deliver on their most ambitious undertaking yet with Above the Starrs, and all-instrumental homage to the seminal East Coast hip hop duo Gang Starrr, that consisted of MC Guru and DJ Premier. In the three years since their last full-length Funkincense, CSC's 10 band members have poured hundreds of hours of studio experimentation into this highly anticipated follow-up album, resurrected from the Fat Beats vaults and originally inspired by a live collaboration with rapper Masta Ace at a Guru tribute concert. Above the Starrs offers an instant rap-geek curio for anyone who likes hearing bands cross the bounds of sample-based and live hip hop instrumentation. Originally released and sold-out for RSD 2017, this reissue is pressed on vibrant translucent yellow vinyl.
