Bob Schick Great to come across your new album Gary, brilliantly relevant as ever. 30 years on! still a fan and even now some of the best lyrics I've ever heard. The Bristol gigs a fond memory, let the carnival begin.....cheers

Dub Rogue Gary Clail is my hero since 1991. Favorite track: Dark Day Shadows.

Nihilist It's so different from anything else I've heard. Wonder how long it took to collect all the vocal samples.

nahda Another awesome recording Gary, I’ve been listening to your music in four different decades now. Hopefully there’s plenty more left to come! Damn Human Nature was a while ago now!

about

Brilliant new album by Gary Clail Sound System featuring Gary Clail and Tony Wrafter. Ten brand new recordings by Gary Clail and his Sound System. There is a bonus track only on the CD.

The new album 'Violence' from the ubiquitous Gary Clail is a stab at the heart of the establishment. With his increasingly appreciated take on major global issues and laced with his incisive humor 'Violence' considers the effects of war in Syria, the corruption of successive inept governments, the plague of neo-liberalism and the astonishing arrogance of our rulers. Recalling 'The Town Crier' and the sonorous peal of church bells as an early – warning system 'Violence' emphasizes the necessity of a call to arms in the struggle to liberate the disenfranchised many from the tyranny of the increasingly wealthy few.

Produced by Dub Master Mixers Andy Chapman and Gary Clail the album is a vindication of the years of excellent Dub-Style Clail has provided for us. With the addition of Tony Wrafter playing Horns and Woodwind, they have both constructed and dub-structured vistas of compelling sound bites to live by. 'Violence' is a 'must hear' experience you cannot miss.

Let Gary be your beacon of hope. Violence is an album for our times.

Hints of Portishead and even touches of Sade in places. Much of the album is dub reggae ... but not as you have known it before. Chilled, classy with lovely Holly Cook-esque vocals & woodwind flourishes - with lots of older Sherwood DNA running through it. Enjoy the ride. Tim Mee

Edit: I'm blown away by this release. Amazing concept - global female vocal reggae album with contributions in Hindi, Mandarin Chinese, Yoruba, Arabic, Tigrinya etc. And then there's the music. Superb production as you'd imagine from Adrian Sherwood, plus songs and emotions and vibrations of the highest energy and deepest feeling. I'm especially struck by Rita Morar's "Meri Awaaz Sumo" (funky!), Kerieva's "Chavale" (violin!), and JaGodDa's "Krysztalowy Aniol" (soulful!). But it's all great... mcdan77
