Sims announces the release of Field Notes, a collection of 7 new tracks set for release on September 2nd through Doomtree Records. Following 2011’s critically acclaimed Bad Time Zoo LP, Field Notes finds the Minneapolis rapper in fine form, spitting poignant, razor-sharp lyrics over larger than life productions from Doomtree’s own Cecil Otter and Paper Tiger, as well as newcomers ICETEP and Plain Ole Arson (Ryan Olson x Plain Ole Bill). 

Field Notes is available for pre-order today on the Doomtree webstore and digitally via iTunes and Bandcamp. All pre-orders include the first single “Uh Huh” as an instant grat track.

Lyrics:
Well I stepped up my cleats on 
and that chin music is my theme song
that brush off, that write off, I just use that as a deduction
that mean mugging don’t mean nothing
hold the line, I play the whole 9 
I steal second, I scrape for mine
you can take the signs or you can pay no mind
I’m on the verge, hold the sermon
like I told the purists, if I played it safe I would’ve sold insurance
so I kill it ’til it’s dead, till it ’til it grows
get it on the road then tour it ’til it’s old
like any good crow I never tip toe around a motherfucking straw man
make me like amen, or god damn, or something 
like money for nothing 
in common
I came up on ramen
nine of us and we’re lining up 
and you must be high on that diamond dust
now I’m grinding out until my time is up

I didn’t come to play games, I came to win
I get it in then I’m in the wind and I ain’t no average citizen
I ain’t living in that bitter end 
I come to stack my dividends and then bounce

I am the chem trail in your easy mac
Sims Jong Il to all you Tumbl’ing amnesiacs
faking funk and celiacs 
got me out here feeling old on my Holden Caulfield calling phony
I’m from the land of Uncle Ole’s yelling fuck the police
Axel Foley your magic kingdom, leave a mess on your linoleum
In the kitchen with a downgraded Pluto enriching Plutonium
these molly poppers went too based, looking Rob Ford
that ain’t flavor that’s Kool Aid, you’re skating on a long board 
I’m taking shots singing C-Murder until I wind up on the floor
then I’m Hasselhoffing this cheeseburger, call you up around four
I’m Nick Caging this Vegas, I’m lighting up these stages
they say baseless shit to get famous, they're Jim Rome, they’re Skip Bayless
sunglasses and bail money, my cunning and my homies
we’re running, we’re hungry, you stay praying on some pony
stay blue Lonely Boy, southsider, outlier, the gasoline to your house fire
and I ride this shit ’til there are no tires

I didn’t come to play games, I came to win
I get it in then I’m in the wind and I ain’t no average citizen
I ain’t living in that bitter end
I come to stack my dividends and then bounce

A fine young gent with a lyrically rhythmic bent. Flows be heaven sent sinners just repent. Don't be a degent listening to only djent.

Hey if you scrolled down this far you've come to my Official SC page. I've been rapping since 2015-2016 onward pushing myself and my craft writing and rehearsing exhaustively. (I had a gig in Vancouver as my first official performance in 2018) As of 2021 I've yet to have the pleasure of working with other artists or learning the ways of bands that heavily rely on instruments.

To me, my voice is an instrument. And that's what I have at the ready so that's how it might stay for a hot minute. Just know I'm doing what I can working with fellow emcees/producers and the improvements are not far away.

I haven't put much money into making music but all I know is that it's not about profit but making your Kinfolk happy is most important. Those who know, know.

Thank you,

Eric Dooley AKA Aeon Acrux



P.S. a quote from one of my all time favorite movies! Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World!


Gideon Graves the films main villain:


"Well, if my cathedral of cutting-edge taste holds no interest for your tragically Canadian sensibilities, then I shall be forced to grant you a swift exit from the premises... and a fast entrance into hell!"
