An in-between EP,
The Lost Scripts of K.O.D. kicks off with a remix of
Tech N9ne’s highly desirable “Even though I’m still alive/Play my records like I died”-anthem, “Like I Died.” This hard-to-find cut originally appeared on the Strange Music Sampler 09, but from here on out, it's all new tracks recorded after the
K.O.D. album was finished, even though they are definitely in the conceptual spirit of that parent release. Fans can even consider this an epilogue and follow the demonic
K.O.D. character as he searches for “Stress Relief” on the most dramatic of tracks, goes electro on the great “00n9na,” and then looks to “go into the light” on the slow, soul-searching number “Last Sad Song.” It’s that closing number that fans will really cherish, not just for the
Krizz Kaliko guest shot, but also for
Tech’s willingness to try something new, which in this case, is love and happiness. ~ David Jeffries
