P.O.S.
P.O.S. returns with/ Never Better/, February 3rd on Rhymesayers. It's the follow-up to 2006's critically acclaimed/ Audition/. The first single off the record "Goodbye" is available as a free download from Rhymesayers here: http://www.rhymesayers.com/news.php#newsId_1635 and also available at iTunes. You can also pull the single from the following sendspace link http://www.sendspace.com/file/nikyly or we can send you the MP3 direct if you'd like.
Most of P.O.S' new album was written in a moving car. On it, he raps at full-clip to ride rolling drums and revving distortion. There's an urgency that he keeps in careful check, and then unleashes for spring-loaded verses that represent his best work. P.O.S built his reputation as an innovator, with an unlikely punk rock past and expressive, honest content. He re-earns the accolades with every release. His records capture his charisma-they're driving and sincere, the dark moments counterbalanced by some giggling banter with the engineer. On/ Never Better/, the new disc, he conjures get-away cars, racing chariots, the pursuit of sirens, and the occasional rueful nighttime drive.
P.O.S himself made more than half of the beats on/ Never Better/, and the production bears his unmistakable signature. The album enters a room like bombshell with a black eye-badass, noisy, impossible to ignore. Feedback and relentless drum rolls are only occasionally tempered by sung choruses and clean, chiming guitar lines. Some critics will be eager to categorize the album as a hybrid-some kind of crossover project. But it's probably not. P.O.S is a rapper with range, he's a real musician and an unstoppable performer. For him, genres are as they ever were: permeable.
The packaging for P.O.S's new album/ Never Better/ is a one of a kind four panel transparent plastic Digipak that holds 16 solid and 6 Transparent inserts. The solid inserts have artwork on the front and lyrics/credits on the back. The Transparent inserts have artwork that when placed over the various solid cards, enhance and change the look of the art underneath, hundreds of combinations are possible. Look for P.O.S to embark on a headlining tour for the month of February and he will stay on the road through the summer, where he's confirmed for the entire Vans Warped Tour.
