Synopsis

Product Description
The result of previous collaborations is Dr. Israel Presents Dreadtone International - Patterns of War?Doc?s first album in over 3 years and his first ?proper? album in even longer. It also marks the return of a huge talent to the world music genre. Anyone who?s heard Doc?s classic Inna City Pressure (reissued by ROIR in August) knows exactly what I mean. Patterns of War augments the rock bombast of that album with dark, worldly grooves that showcase not only Doc?s thick baritone but the vocals of Dreadtone International members Lady K and Chemda. As with Inna City Pressure, Doc?s soulful production, deep vocals, and global-urban consciousness allow Patterns of War to freely roam the earth while remaining grounded in Brooklyn?s gritty streets. Think Massive Attack vs. Sade vs. Bob Marley. Heavy, heavy bass lines, thundering beats, beautiful melodies, pristinely produced vocals, and conscious lyrics paint an overall soundscape which is as powerful as it is unique. Keep an eye out for the music video of ?Tetze??ROIR?s first ever! To be included on the finalized CD.
 

CD Reviews

Reflections
A. Bennett | Philadelphia PA USA | 01/06/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD is awesome. "Counting Stones" is a beautiful haunting song about the agony of war. "Tetze" speaks for all the people of the world who live with oppression everyday. "Stay With Me" by Lady K is a sensual poetic song that touches the soul. The entire collection is great, but these are my favorites."
