Gave You Time 03:44<br /> <br /> Release Notes:<br /> <br /> Barry Ashworth and Jason O'Bryan AKA the Dub Pistols<br /> have spent the best part of a decade at the<br /> forefront of Beats culture. From their early<br /> singles for Concrete Records to their genre defying<br /> 'Six Million Ways To Live' long player, the Dub<br /> Pistols have always added a much needed Rock n Roll<br /> swagger to the UK's dance scene. Chewing up<br /> hip-hop, dub, techno, ska and punk and spitting them<br /> out in a renegade futuristic skank they have<br /> consistently defied categorisation and exceeded the<br /> highest of expectations.<br /> <br /> Their genre-mashing abilities have led to remix work<br /> for the likes of Moby, Crystal Method, Limp Bizkit,<br /> Bono, Korn &amp; Ian Brown, and has seen them work with<br /> hip-hop legend Busta Rhymes on 'One', a track for<br /> the Blade 2 soundtrack and 'Molotov' on the Y Tu<br /> Mama Tambien soundtrack. In recent years the band<br /> has mutated from a studio based duo into a fully<br /> fledged live act, including the talents of UK Hip<br /> Hop don Rodney P, the maverick and mercurial former<br /> Specials front man Terry Hall, US rap w&uuml;nderkind<br /> T.K., Sugardaddy horn-blower Tim Hutton and scratch<br /> maestro DJ Stix.<br /> <br /> Their third album 'Speakers And Tweeters', released<br /> on 9th April 2007, through Rob da Bank's Sunday Best<br /> label, is a consummate statement of intent. Their<br /> most accessible to date, the album's 13 tracks draw<br /> on a rich tapestry of influences, weaving tight<br /> beats and even tighter rhymes into a refined and<br /> assured set. The stirring chords and laid-back beats<br /> of 'Speed of Light', featuring Blade's skilful flow,<br /> opens the album in style. An inspired cover of Punk<br /> legends The Stranglers' classic 'Peaches',<br /> immediately grabs the attention, with the vocal<br /> dexterities of Rodney P and Terry Hall taking centre<br /> stage, before the pumping, angular funk of the<br /> album's title track 'Speakers And Tweeters' takes<br /> hold. A deeply ingrained skank runs throughout the<br /> album, as ably demonstrated on the horn-driven<br /> 'Running From The Thoughts'.<br /> <br /> The album's lead single, released on 12th March,<br /> sees the Dub Pistols taking Blondie's 'Rapture' and<br /> booting it firmly into the future, with Terry Hall's<br /> laconic delivery adding an insouciant edge.<br /> Following hard on its heels is the bumping krunk of<br /> 'Cruise Control', harking back to the classic era of<br /> street beats and Electro. The Disco strut of 'Open'<br /> and the Black Ark stylings of 'You'll Never Find'<br /> keep things on the boil before the Dub Pistols drop<br /> a bold cover. A superlative version of The Specials'<br /> seminal 'Gangsters' sees Terry Hall, a quarter of a<br /> century wiser, reprising his vocal role, giving the<br /> 2-Tone classic a knowing air, underpinned by the<br /> band's groove juggernaut.<br /> <br /> Channelling the spirit of Dr Dre on the anthemic<br /> 'Something To Trust', the Dub Pistols approach the<br /> last few tracks in full on intergalactic hip-hop<br /> mode. 'Mach 10's rolling beats are given an<br /> authentic treatment with T.K.'s super slick delivery<br /> taking things to the next level. 'Stronger's Roots<br /> Reggae lilt and the reflective 'Gave You Time'<br /> provide a polished denouement to what is undoubtedly<br /> the Dub Pistols' finest hour.<br /> <br /> Humour and music often make uncomfortable bedfellows<br /> (remember The Sultans of Ping?) and the sound of<br /> someone who sounds like Brian Blessed really<br /> overacting bellowing over the course of 10 songs can<br /> get a little wearing. That's bad enough, but the<br /> exorable Stupid Rap that closes the album is almost<br /> enough to persuade even the most level headed person<br /> that purchasing a sniper rifle and hunting the band<br /> down before they reform might not be such a bad<br /> idea.<br /> <br /> Perhaps the most telling thing about this album is<br /> the interview from XFM that has been included at the<br /> end of the collection. It constantly references the<br /> band's live performance and highlights the fact that<br /> they were a great live band. Looking back across the<br /> songs included here, it would not be unfair to<br /> suggest that whilst we may not have lost a great<br /> singles band, we have lost a band that were<br /> undoubtedly capable of putting on hugely enjoyable<br /> live shows.<br />
