Wu-Tang Clan: Triumph Vinyl 7″

Get On Down celebrate the 25th anniversary of Wu-Tang Forever with the album’s first single and universally-agreed-upon posse cut “Triumph” on a limited edition silver 45! Side B contains album deep cut “Heaterz”; housed in a reproduction of the original European 12″ pic sleeve with full track lyrics so you can follow along. Original Lab review:

For the second generation, post-36 Chambers listeners, “Triumph” was the apex of the Clan. For the rest of us, it was the best track off a disappointing second album. Years removed, this song has only gotten more emphatic: the leadoff genius of ODB (yo, stick him in the front to get them hyped), the anti-chorus structure, RZA’s perpendicular to the square formula, and the ten (yes, 10) total verses.
