Emo stickman can rap? Weerd but true.

Weerd Science - Friends And Nervous Breakdowns
Alternative Press - Scott Heisel on 11/29/05 @ 6:31 PM - altpress.com

[3]That howling sound you hear is closed-minded fans discovering that Coheed And Cambria drummer Josh Eppard's secret career is actually in hip-hop. But, like it or not, Eppard/Weerd Science makes a completely credible producer and MC. He has a refreshing disinterest in the lo-fi abstractions that dominate rap's underground, so these beats are organic, musical and in-your-face. The unforgivable misogyny is presumably delivered with a wink, and funny screeds like "Fuck You And Your Filthy A&R Dept." deliver as advertised. The irony is, Friends And Nervous Breakdowns is promising enough to have some of those same A&R folks come hunting for Eppard's alter ego. (EQUAL VISION/SUPER RAP) Dan LeRoy
