One of my favourite records to emerge from On-U Sound dub don Adrian Sherwood's mixing desk that was originally released on Cherry Red Records in 1981.
Representing a meeting of two of On-U's super groups Creation Rebel and New Age Steppers it displays the impressive combined musical power of legends from both the world's of reggae and post-punk including Style Scott, Keith Levene, Ari Up, Crucial Tony and Lizard Logan.
The result is a perfect mix of the angular guitars and DIY experimentalism of post-punk with the deep rhythms and heavy dub basslines of reggae. A true timeless classic.
