Exclusive: Aesop Rock Reveals New Album Details

Exclusive: Aesop Rock Reveals New Album Details Following his entry in the Nike+ Original Run series and the positive reception of his boss' new album, Aesop Rock is poised to sail the good ship Def Jux to even better times in 2007 with the release of his fourth solo album, None Shall Pass.

As previously reported, the album features contributions from the Mountain Goats' John Darnielle, El-P, Cage, Rob Sonic, DJ Big Wiz, and Breeze Brewin. Most of None's production came from frequent Aesop collaborator Blockhead, but there are also beats from El-P, Rob Sonic, and Aesop himself.

Definitive Jux will release None Shall Pass on August 28. Aesop Rock's only scheduled tour dates at the moment are at the previously reported Capitol Hill Block Party in Seattle, which will take place July 27 and 28, and at Bonnaroo in Manchester, Tennessee on June 14-17.
