(PR) Definitive Jux co-founder, emcee, and producer El-P's first single from his new album I'll Sleep When You're Dead is available today. Entitled "Flyentology", the song features Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails. The single will be supported by an Adult Swim produced video that will debut on Comedy Central.

"Flyentology" was written by El-P after he experienced a near fatal plane crash. The emcee/producer has always had an intense fear of flying, and his worst nightmare came true on a recent flight. Shortly after take-off, one of the engines exploded and the plane had to make a rough emergency landing. In the aftermath of the traumatic incident, El-P reexamined his thoughts on faith and religion. "I realized that my spiritual life exists only while on planes. During the experience I found myself praying, and I don�t even know how to pray. So this is my song about religion, which I think a lot of people can relate to. It�s my admittance of being an a-hole who thinks he�s better than God until the very moment when I realize that not only am I not, but I really, really want God to love me and take care of me," explained El-P.[see full story for more] - Click here for the Full Story
