Written by Jon Stickler
One half of unlikely chart bothering duo dan le sac Vs Scroobius Pip, Scroobius Pip (pictured right) has announced four UK live dates for October and November.
A leading light and unmistakable face of the UK's spoken word scene, Scroobius Pip combines poetry, electro beats, and an amalgam of other genres ranging from punk to Motown, making him even more difficult to label musically than similar-minded artists LCD Soundsystem and the Streets.
Scroobius Pip will follow up the release of his solo album 'Distraction Pieces' in September, with a UK tour in the autumn.:
'Distraction Pieces', released on 19th September, sees Pip - with producers Yilla and Worgie – drafting in collaborations from Renholder (aka Danny Lohner NIN / A Perfect Circle), Richard Russell (XL), Steve Mason, Sage Francis, P.O.S. Zane Lowe, B Dolan and Aupheus, for a solo record that represents a collision of Punk, Rock and Hip Hop influences.
Check out the video to album opener 'Introdiction' below. His beard shedding performance is soundtracked by Renholder and with Travis Barker on drums.
