Anonymous Reviewer - 08/30/2009  RAPPED AND TAGGED: THE J.HEXX PROJECT | THE SEVEN DOORZ TO DEATH/TWITCH OF THE DEADZ NERVEZ
The J.Hexx Project’s unique double album offering (on one disc) THE SEVEN DOORZ TO DEATH/TWITCH OF THE DEADZ NERVEZ is a complex album filled with grotesque visuals, which in plenty of cases act as sinister metaphors for some of life’s less physically savage (but significant, regardless) abuse. The album has a vibe that conjures visions of The Gravediggaz, meeting up with Necro to compile an excellent piece of work (note that I personally extend that as a compliment). There’s a unique embraceable quality about the album that is clearly fueled by strong hooks, discreet, yet insanely deep lyrics, excellent production with some sampling that really makes the album feel more like a sadistic Tarantino film than a standard horror album.
J.Hexx flexes some wild personality(’s) and the constant fluctuations within the mood of the music keeps the album quite refreshing. Aside from personality alone, Hexx keeps his rhyme structures constantly evolving, providing a stimulating contrast from one song to the next. Hexx is clearly an intelligent musician, who proves his worth and then-some with this latest release. While I’ve been so busy praising Hexx’s talents, and verbal diversity - I think it’s important to extend some serious praise to those involved with producing the album. Understanding, AWOL & Tino, Whitebeats, and J. Hexx all step up to paint a background portrait layered with dark, energetic tones that pack legit replay value. The total package is really quite impressive.
A few personal notes I’d like to include briefly… It’s great to hear modern beats, rhymes and schemes that somehow manage to conjure some strange form of nostalgia. The more I explore the album, the more I find myself reminiscing, traveling back to the mid 90’s. My younger years, which I, admittedly miss quite a bit (can you say arrested development). Hmmm… maybe that’s the main reason I’ve taken such a liking to this album… One final note: Gus Cervantes has crafted two of the best album covers (all genres included) I’ve ever seen. Hats off to you sir for some fabulous work!

Anonymous Reviewer - 06/28/2009  This album, is in a very short sentence, a brilliant and original horrorcore album that is a instant classic. please get this if you love horrorcore, because it is essential to every horrorcore fan's album collection. Never in such a long time, has a horrorcore artist taken such steps to make nothing short of a piece of art, in music form.

ichigo - 04/05/2009  This is by far one of the best albums in horrorcore. J Hexx has one of the most unique vocalists I have heard in quite some time. His voice could be compared to the sound of a ghost howling into your ear drums. "The CD starts off excellently with the track "The Rope of Life" and only improves from there on out. And if you enjoy complex beats, stories, frightening tales, and songs to make you think about life, J Hexx is for you. As with many albums released by 3rd Shift Entertainment, you can't go wrong with this one!
