El-P’s production often busies itself as much with melody as with harsh percussion and enveloping shadows, but on the instrumental Weareallgoingtoburninhellmegamixx3, he relishes the chance to loosen up. The synth whirligigs that often bolster El-P’s work become leads on “Whores: The Movie,” playing off a menacingly syncopated hook with a variety of harmonies, rapid frills, and siren-like stretches. Amid a lot of ill-tempered bangers (“Meanstreak (In 3 Parts),” “Eat My Garbage 2”), El rides several healthy mood swings. “Time Won’t Tell” pits tenderness against grimy fallout, much as “Habeas Corpses (Draconian Love)” did on 2007’s I’ll Sleep When You’re Dead. Electronic music may never peg-leg itself closer to Tom Waits than on “Drunk With A Loaded Pistol,” thanks to its synth-horns and grisly slink of a beat.
