While it's not exactly roots music, it is pretty good modern dub reggae, emphasis on the dub part. This album isn't authentic roots reggae like Ras Michael, Toots, or even the Wailing Souls,it is still pretty stoney.

My only criticism is that a couple of songs are a bit sweet and syruppy. What does that mean to you? I have no idea, but after digging this, I definitely want to try their earlier stuff. I would give it 4 stars, but I don't think the the other 2 reviewers thought about it enough before rating it. I let the music stand on its own without comparing it to something it's not trying to be. I'll skew the ratings and give it 5 stars, which is my right as a reviewer.

This punchy warm well recorded excursion into Reggae & Pop is an interesting departure from the usual Black Uhuru Reggae. Their Reggae version of War's "Slippin' Into Darkness" is one of the highlights of this colorful set of songs. For an entertaining time this is the CD for you.

Looking for good roots music? look elsewhere. Check out some of their older stuff
