LOS ANGELES (Crzy Town Fans Website) -
Crazy Town is teaming up with hip-hop and soul acts DMX,
Raphael Saadiq, Slum Village, and "possibly"
Xzibit for remixes of songs from its next album, Darkhorse, which is due in stores Tuesday (November 12) from Columbia Records.
But band vocalist Seth "Shifty Shellshock" Binzer said according to Fans website, that unlike fellow rap-rockers Linkin Park, who released an entire album of remixes from its debut release, Hybrid Theory, Crazy Town has a different plan for getting the alternate tracks to the public.
"Linkin Park went out and put (out) a whole remix album, that's not what we're trying to do. What we're trying to do is, we're gonna release each single, and each single is gonna have B-sides on it. Or we're gonna release some vinyl of a bunch of remixes for the clubs that are gonna enable the songs to have a wider spectrum of audience," he says.
"I grew up on hip-hop," Binzer says, of the collaborations, "so it's cool to be in a position to work with those people."
Crazy Town has several other songs that did not make the final cut for Darkhorse that will likely be used as B-sides as well, the singer says.
Darkhorse features the single, "Drowning." The album is the follow-up to the Los Angeles group's 1999 debut effort, The Gift Of Game, which included the Number One single "Butterfly."
