Common Market at Vera Project

Common Market's new EP, Black Patch War, contains some of Sabzi's richest productions. Each detail is lovingly made and expressed. (Listening to it puts me in mind of South London's Burial, whose attention to detail is supernatural.) RA Scion, Common Market's rapper, is much more reflective on this effort, his words and thoughts lost in a warm wash of music. Black Patch War stands to be one of the best works of art to come out of Seattle this year. (Vera Project, Seattle Center, 956-8372. 7:30 pm, $7/$8, all ages.)
