This document provides a tracklist and descriptions for the album "Hashisheen: The End of Law" by Bill Laswell from 1999. It features various artists reading pieces about Hassan Ibn Sabbah and the ancient order of assassins in the Middle East. The summaries describe the album as having amazing voices backed by Laswell's groovy bass and drums, creating a humid and illusionary atmospheric listening experience through spoken word ambient pieces about the legendary outcast and his nomadic assassins.

A group of artists read pieces of the story of Hassan Ibn Sabbah, a legendary outcast and chief of nomadic assassins in the ancient Middle East. The voices are amazing (think Iggy Pop for starters), and backed up with Laswell's groovy bass and drums give you one great an experience in music. Spoken word ambient pieces are usually risky, certainly not for a casual listening, however this one is worth as many attempts as required to get the feeling of its humid, illusionary atmosphere - all the hints are there. eliks_postindustry (Discogs) POSTED BY STV63 LABELS: MUZAK 1 COMMENTS LINKS TO THIS POST
