Three Sheet 

In Circulation (Three Sheet Ink)

by Sean Flinn

A spirited, thoughtful MC, Expedyte's verses can get wordy at times. Occasionally he sounds hurried, behind the beat. But he nails it on, for example, "Norm Now." Vanessa Furlong delivers throughout the album, particularly "Blood Whale" and "How it Goes." Halifax's Three Sheet has got something. They've got a human beatbox, EMC, but no kit---that added kick of someone on the live skins could round out the sound. Kevin Tilley, an able bassist, makes up considerably for the absence. Guitarist Ryan O'Quinn comes up with moody, haunting riffs, though coming a bit too close to Charles Austin on Buck 65's Talkin' Honky Blues at times. Still, he switches it up to provide fine funk, R&B, soul and rock styles.
