Legendary West Coast hip-hop group Cypress Hill has announced its highly-anticipated ninth studio album, Elephants On Acid. Due September 28, the album marks the return of DJ Muggs, and it’s the fellas’ first full-length release since 2010’s Rise Up.
Cypress Hill co-founder DJ Muggs returns to produce the new 21-track-interlude mix, which features “live instrumentation from Egyptian street musicians” with additional tracks recorded in Joshua Tree and Los Angeles, according to a press release.
“Psychedelic rock and stuff has been a big influence on me,” Muggs told Rolling Stone. “I had the idea what the name of this record was going to be and then I just started building the whole sound around [it]. Just a whole sound like feeling like you’re high on hallucinogenic drugs – but you’re not on no drugs.”
Cypress Hill will kick off a massive global tour in support of the album with a special performance at Riot Fest 2018, where they’ll perform their landmark record Black Sunday (and much more) for its 25th anniversary. You can check out the track list and the music video for their new single “Band of Gypsies” below.
