Sadistik’s Ultraviolet is one week away and now he releases one of the most anticipated records from the LP. Featuring the late Eyedea, “Chemical Burns” brings us aggressively  introspective verses over haunting production. It’s worth noting that Sadistik featured an extremely heartfelt tribute to Eyedea on his previous album, Flowers for My Father, so finally releasing a collaboration he’s had in the can with him feels all the more special. Stream it below.
