Lice (Aesop Rock & Homeboy Sandman) - Triple Fat Lice Vinyl Record

Aesop Rock and Homeboy Sandman return with their third collaborative EP, Triple Fat Lice — and it’s just as infectiously clever, sharp-witted, and lyrically dexterous as you’d expect from two of underground hip-hop’s most cerebral heavyweights.

Originally released in 2017 as a free digital download and briefly available on tour-only vinyl, this long-awaited official pressing finally brings the fan-favorite project to turntables everywhere. Packed with dense wordplay, surreal imagery, and a tongue-in-cheek vibe, Triple Fat Lice proves that great collaborations don’t need industry polish to shine. Tracks like “Panacea” and “Comfy” deliver a masterclass in lyrical acrobatics, while “Yo la Tengo” offers a sly wink to indie heads and hip-hop heads alike.

The production lineup is stacked: beats from Cohen Beats, Oh No, Ben Boogz (of 2 Hungry Brothers), Quelle Chris, and M Slago bring a variety of textures — from dusty boom bap to psychedelic funk — that serve as the perfect playground for both MCs to flex their unique styles.

More than just bars and beats, Triple Fat Lice is the product of a genuine friendship born on the road in 2015. The chemistry is real, the rhymes are razor-sharp, and the energy is loose and playful. Featuring cover art by legendary illustrator Jeremy Fish, this pressing isn’t just a record — it’s a collector’s gem for fans of avant-garde hip-hop done right.
