When combining riffs and rhymes, there's a high risk that descriptors like 'rap-rock' and even 'nu-metal' will creep up to cloud objectivity, recalling ghosts from the late '90s. On Anything But Words, the debut effort from Banks & Steelz, two seemingly disparate forces mesh so well that it sounds like they were meant to be together all along. Infinite crisis game dc database.

Fortunately, good energy and camaraderie flowed easily between them for years. Then, as RZA looked for someone new to record with, he thought of Paul. They jammed in the RZA’s home studio in LA and when Paul got back to NY and began to dive in on the works, they spoke to him. Those songs shaped the nature of the collaboration resulting in there debut album Anything But Words. The album is a hybrid of their styles that feels like a natural blend for both of them.

“It’s a great balance of who we are,” RZA says. “It’s pop but it’s not too pop.

It’s hip-hop but it’s not hip-hop all the way. It’s alternative, but it’s not alternative totally. It’s actually a melding of the right amount of each. Something about it feels modern and space age and something about it feels 80s to me. To me it forms its own genre.”.
