Indie superproducer and Def Jux head honcho El-P recently announced via his MySpace blog that Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor and the Mars Volta are both featured on his upcoming record, I'll Sleep When You're Dead.

"Flyentology", the track Reznor guests on, is currently undergoing the mixing process, while the Mars Volta number is still in the works. I'll Sleep When You're Dead is four songs short of completion, with no official release date at this point in time. El-P writes that on the album he will "A: talk shit, B: talk truth, C: discust [sic] people, D: all of the above." We can't wait.

El-P also produced Mr. Lif's latest album, Mo Mega, out yesterday on Definitive Jux. The two are slated to play a gig with fellow Jukie Cage at New York City's Bowery Ballroom on June 17.
