LABEL: Rhymesayers
VINYL RELEASE DATE: 10/14/2022
ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE: 2015
VARIANT: Black 12" EP

Both Aesop Rock and Homeboy Sandman are regarded
as top tier lyricists known for pushing the envelope of
creativity in their writing, while covering a wide range of
topics and moods. However, sometimes things are inherently
simple. Take for example, the origin of their collaboration,
born from a mutual appreciation for each other as artists
which became fully realized when Aesop Rock invited
Homeboy Sandman to join him on tour in 2015. Traveling
the country together, they built a connection beyond the
music, resulting in a friendship that led to recording a few
songs together, and before they knew it, there was an
infestation...Lice.

Initially released in 2015 as a free direct download, followed
by an extremely limited vinyl pressing sold exclusively on
tour, Aesop Rock and Homeboy Sandman's Lice is finally
available to fans everywhere. The first in a series of EP
releases, Lice featured production from DJ Spinna, Optiks,
Blockhead, Alex "Apex" Gale and Mike Shinoda. The
original cover art was designed by renowned illustrator
Jeremy Fish.
