New York, NY (February 14, 2013) - Soul Temple Records announces the release of Twelve Reasons To Die, the new album from Ghostface Killah and composer/producer/multi-instrumentalist Adrian Younge on April 16. Twelve Reasons To Die is a brilliant and daring crime/horror concept album. This is the third release from Soul Temple Records, a company whose mission is to release quality music coupled with packages engaging multiple elements of the creative community.
Ghostface's long-time Wu-Tang collaborator The RZA acts as executive producer on the groundbreaking album which melds the sounds of classic 36 Chambers-era RZA with Portishead, and the Italian film music of Ennio Morricone. The album will be available in various configurations including a standard CD, a deluxe double CD with instrumentals and a mini comic book, plus a digital deluxe version with instrumentals and digital comic book, multiple vinyl formats and a cassette. To visually flesh out the dark and gritty world of Twelve Reasons, Soul Temple Records has partnered with Black Mask Studios to produce a 6-issue comic book series and collected graphic novel featuring striking visuals and an intriguing dual-narrative structure with contributions from a host of stellar comic book artists.
A National tour is currently be routed for Ghostface together with Adrian Younge and his live band, Venice Dawn, which will commence March 14th at SXSW and run thru early June hitting all major US markets. Tour dates will be confirmed and tickets will go on sale later this month.
Ghostface Killah's prominence in hip hop has grown steadily over his 20-plus year career including recent high-profile appearances on Kanye West's Cruel Summer, the critically-acclaimed soundtrack to RZA's film The Man With The Iron Fists and the new Wu-Block album. Twelve Reasons To Die catches the gifted MC at the height of his lyrical prowess, and to celebrate this album announcement, Soul Temple is offering a free download of the first single, “The Rise of the Ghostface Killah.â€
Adrian Younge represents the next generation of black music producers. Twelve Reasons is Younge's first project immersed in the world of rap and hip hop, and his aim is to deliver an organic re-appropriation of hip-hop circa the mid-90s. Younge's previous releases, the Black Dynamite (2009) soundtrack and Something About April (2011) touched on psychedelia, 'blaxploitation,' and the cinematic soul of the 1970s.
