I compared my copy of this pressing to a high quality CD rip and I found it hard to notice any difference. Equipment: Bowers&Wilkins 703, Rotel1080/Rotel1082, Ortofon 2M Blue.Also a very clean copy without any pops or noise.

Earlier leaked version is about a million times better than the official release, where DOOM doesn't sound like he's moments away from falling asleep... and actually spits with some passion. Still, official version is aight, but those older vocal takes were waaaay better, in my opinion.

ah the soulseek days. Had to burn 3-4 *mp3* copies of that cause I wore them out. The official album is still amazing to me though, but those leaks were one of a kind.

Disagree with you completely on that one. The leaked version sounds like a mixtape. Madvillainy sounds like a masterpiece

In the early 2000's, MF DOOM was my favorite MC and Madlib was my favorite beat producer. When this collab was announced, It was the most anticipated album for me of all time. It was at least 6 months before anymore news broke, and all of a sudden.... the album was leaked into cyber space....someone stole the album and leaked it,so DOOM and Madlib went back to square one and rewrote the whole album....I couldn't' wait any longer, I had the LP pre-ordered from sandbox automatic. When it was finally released, what more can I say...It was everything I could of hoped for in a DOOM/Madlib collab; spacey deep groove beats littered with jazz samples. Super stoney sound, like a blunt was being smoked in the studio nonstop. DOOM sounds especially inspired and it shows with his trademark flow and poetic clever lyrics....In my top 5 hip-hop albums of all time. I still have my Madvillian original promo poster released with the pre-order.

There is no 'old album', what was stolen from Madlib's apartment was an early demo. This frustated both Madlib and DOOM, and they would only finish the record months later. I don't think that there was any 'rewriting', maybe they only took a different approach at things, and the album was finished with a different vibe.Actually, I found this in Wikipédia: ''the leak prompted DOOM to go with a slower and more relaxed flow on the final version of the album. This move has been praised by various publications, including Pitchfork, which said that it was "ultimately better-suited" than the original.''Talking Madlib's production, also from Wikipedia: ''Madlib was also asked by the label to change some instrumentals, but told them that he forgot the samples he used, in order to allow for them to remain on the album. ''So yeah, I guess there was a bit of 'rewriting'... but no, the duo didn't start the Project over.

Was it the 10th anniversary press or the original one ? I have to choose between those so it would be good to know if one press is better than the other one...

This is what real Hip Hop sounds like, raw conscious and says 'Writtten in blood with a tooth pick' and this Album sounds just that ! Mad Lib & MC Doom don't do main stream and this Album shows how the real music makers do it on vinyl.

FYI...please do not believe the shysters who claim the "original pressing" is "out of print." The vinyl has never gone out of print, and is still available via Stones Throw. Support real hip-hop!

Actually, the "original pressing" IS out of print - if you read the "Edit Release" notes for this entry you will notice that the more recent pressings have a different run-out matrix, as documented on the Undated Repress entry which was recently submitted (specifically, OG US pressings have the "MASTERDISK" stamp in the run-out).. Good luck y'all.

For ‘Meat Grinder’, Madlib has used as his beats and bass line a sample from a pretty obscure library music track called ‘Hula Rock’ by The Lew Howard All-Stars, which was originally recorded for the Bosworth library, suggesting he might be or was at some point a library music digger. The track was also commercially released by UK library music guru Jonny Trunk, on the first record that he put out on his own label, Trunk Records, which was a compilation of tracks from the Bosworth archive which were recorded in the 60s and 70s.

Mad Lib and MC Doom combine their evil forces to bring you Mad Villain – Mad Villiany. This album may very well fully restore your faith in hip hop. Thoughtful production and rhymes give you a cohesive listening experience from beginning to end that you won’t find in mainstream rap. Much credit to Mad Lib for making this album highly listenable. Using mainly organic sounds and instruments (even an accordion!), Mad Villian has presented approachable music that remains firmly in the realm of independent (and just darn good) hip hop. Doom’s performance is a subtle mixture of serious lyrics, tongue in cheek humor, and laid back yet undeniable rhyming talent. Though the album features a few stand out tracks, (“Accordion” and “Operation Lifesaver…” are two of my favorites) I really recommend that you abstain from ignoring any part of the whole. Good albums manage to churn out hit singles, great ones deliver from the first track to the last.
