For the last year or so, The ILLusionists have been making a name for themselves. Playing to audiences from hip-hop (KI Design, Endr Won) to metal (I'm A Tornado, Death Rides A Horse), the trio has developed an eclectic group of listeners because they are—above all—entertainers.
After only two months together, The ILL produced an 18-track epic (and often hilarious) debut, titled "Sleep Rocking." Proclaiming "Anti-Wack" status, they were outspoken against the generic, mainstream hip-hop that plagues the radio waves today. Due to current sampling laws, the album was manufactured and then given away to listeners for free.
Since then, the group has added a few members and taken their samples to the stage with a live band. Hundreds filled the WOW Hall to see their new lineup this summer. And with all the anticipation before the show, it was captured on tape.
Now, The ILLusionists will return to the stage with a brand new album. Boasting their brand of shameless ambition, "ILL IS ALL" features a studio disc full of brand new material and a second disc of the entire live recording, mixed and mastered for your pleasure.
Whether you gravitate toward the dense sampling of "Sleep Rocking" or the thrash-punk-rapping of the live shows, "ILL IS ALL" truly has it all.
