This volume was originally released in 2004, and it sits in the middle of a sequence often treated as one of the most extensive instrumental hip-hop projects of its era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes these records so absorbing is the way DOOM's beat-making stands on its own. The source material describes the \u003cem\u003eSpecial Herbs\u003c\/em\u003e series as a collection spanning exclusive tracks as well as revised versions of beats he used for himself and other artists, and the music pulls from a wide range of sounds: 70s soul and funk, 80s R\u0026amp;B, rap nostalgia, and snippets from children's records and television. On Vols. 5 \u0026amp; 6, that approach gives the album real range, from the dry swing of \"Pennyroyal\" to the eerie pull of \"Coffin Nails\" and the head-nodding haze of \"Dragon's Blood.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 2025 vinyl return matters because it brings the set back into print with newly designed packaging, and for this edition the album is pressed on coloured vinyl for the first time. For anyone who knows DOOM mainly as an MC, these sides are a strong reminder that his sample craft, pacing, and off-centre sense of texture were just as distinctive as his voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2xLP, Apple Red Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressed on coloured vinyl for the first time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom top-opening die-cut gatefold jacket with removable “rolling paper” poster insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrinted record sleeves and marketing sticker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack in print with all new packaging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReviews\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cq\u003eThe Herbs are an essential buy for 21st-century beat freaks.\u003c\/q\u003e - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pitchfork.com\/reviews\/albums\/15114-special-herbs-the-box-set-vol-0-9\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ePitchfork\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e Metal Fingers\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e Metal Face Records, Rhymesayers Entertainment\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 2\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_uk\"\u003eUK\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_europe\"\u003eEurope\u003c\/a\u003e \u0026amp;
