Details of EL-P’s latest effort, I’ll Sleep When You’re Dead, the highly anticipated follow-up to 2002’s Fantastic Damage were recently revealed to Pitchfork Media by the Def Jux president himself. In a lengthy interview conducted by the music industry website El-P extolled on the finer points of his latest opus including some surprising guest appearances, limited addition releases to coincide with the LP, and his future moves. To summarize the interview (which is available for reading here), guest appearances include Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor, the Mars Volta, Aesop Rock, Cage, Mr. Lif (whose track "might end up becoming a bonus cut" due to scheduling), Tunde Adebimpe (TV on the Radio), Matt Sweeney (Chavez/Bonnie "Prince" Billy/Zwan), James McNew (Yo La Tengo), Rob Sonic, Mr. Dibbs, and Cat Power. However, EL-P was quick to explain that all of the involved artists are not necessarily featured in prominent formats, some simply contributed background vocals, or minor vocal details on tracks.
In addition to the release, EL-P stated that a limited edition vinyl only break-beat style record would be released to coincide with the main album. El-P explains the bonus record is basically, “a construction kit/battle break thing. Essentially what that's going to be is the drums for the record and then using different aspects of the record and kind of creating a battle break feel to it.”
As far as future moves, El-P stated that he hopes to record another album for a 2008 release and after the promotion for "I’ll Sleep When You’re Dead" dies down, he will focus all of his efforts into the next Cannibal Ox release, which is slated for a fourth quarter 2007 release.
