This has been out for some time now, about 6 or 7 months, at least. That doesn't take away from how much better it is than the "Howyoudoin?" album! I wonder if this is music to take drugs to? <grin> Ian (floe:MaddogMgmt.) >> Toronto'Ontario

Yeah, but when (if ever) will it be relesed on cd? retteb. christopher miller evil@ddi.digital.net

It already has. A friend of mine played his copy for me a few months ago.

Yeah i've had it for well over 6 months now here in Australia, and I had the pleasure of seeing the boys play live about a month ago. Their live show was top notch musically with the drummer playing a percussion kit consisting of bongo's, steel drums, and other native type drums, a guitarist (who was a poser but a good guitarist), DJ for live scratching, mixing and dropping in samples off record (this worked exceptionally well) and the keyboard player controlling it all. They played all their classics from Soundclash right up to Next Chapter of Dub, but mainly stayed with the 2 Dub albums and for $12 it was a bargain. If they go stateside... they are a MUST SEE!

I don't know about that... Their last North American tour left a bad taste in our mouth. We had that so called "Mute Over Amerika" tour which featured them playing live for a total of 20 minutes (if even that much). On top of that, only two or so of the songs they did even featured vocals - after that Gary just walked off the stage. Just the drummer and pre-programmed music after that. bleah! christopher miller evil@ddi.digital.net

You wouldn't have liked it then, as there wasn't a single vocal song all night. All I can say is that they got a serious groove happening, which was the shit! :) Regards, John /-------------------------------------------------------------------\ | JOHN BUS (aka.

No, that's not what I was trying to convey. It's just that when you've been waiting and waiting for one of your favorite bands to play, and then it's announced that they are finally going to tour, then you really start looking forward to it. And when you're actually there at the show, and you're digging the music and the whole scene, but then the band just stops playing after four songs... ^^^^^ ...it's kind of a let down to say the least. yevnoc. christopher miller evil@ddi.digital.net
