Description: | Always known for their uncompromising social and political messages, the Canadian collective hit harder than ever on 9 new tracks, outing the hypocrisy of modern day politics, police brutality and the everyday struggle of the working man. Led by chief songwriter and arranger Pierre Chrètien, the band continue to evolve their sound, drawing on a broad palette from their trademark Latin, Afro and Caribbean styles to some of the UK??s political sounds of the early ??80s, the era of The Clash, The Police, 2-Tone and frontline reggae. ??We were basically messing around with the idea of creating our own brand of ??Afro-punk???, remembers Chrétien, ??something with the aggressive, in-your-face energy of punk rock or free jazz, but still backed by the hypnotic, pulsating grooves of tropical music.? - |
