I think the Gas Drawls 12 was the first DOOM song I heard. I think it was also part of how I found SOHH
back around 99 I got this tape from a homie. on it was "It Sounded like a Roc". it was crazy cause I never heard the song, but right away I knew it was a KMD song off their unreleased album. this was right around the time music being on the interweb was blowing up, and I had this epiphany that maybe I could find some info on the unreleased Black b*stards album, since apparently there were some songs out there (aside from those on the "What a Niggy Know" single). that search led me to sandboxautomatic, where Fondle Em had released that "KMD Ruffs + Rares" album. also there it said Zev had some new stuff under the name MF DOOM. I remember they had a crappy real-audio snippets of the songs on the 12's. I heard Gas Drawls, and was just like
not to be corny, but it was pretty much exactly what was missing from hip-hop for me at the time. another crazy part was I found out about Doomsday, saw the cover, and I had just recently seen that CD at this little local shop by me. I remember I peeped the Dr Doom cover, like "wtf is this

". anyway I ran back and copped that CD, and it was on from there (I copped Slum Village Vol 1 at the same shop). somewhere in all that I also found SOHH
