"This is Adrian Sherwood and crew at their best. He's renowned for his reggae (check out Prince Far I), but his unclassifiable work with people like Tackhead (Sound System) and Fats Comet is as weird, noisy and cerebral as their maddest reggae. I must admit I don't have this CD, but have, and love, all the tracks on original vinyl 12's, promos & radio tapes. The music ranges from threatening sonic accounts of an increasingly militarised world (What's My Mission Now? "Don't send in the military and then wring your hands and say 'oh my god, you've hurt somebody', of course we have - that's what you sent us in there to do.") via Margaret Thatcher (Hard Left: "Today you've seen the hard left; fighting in the streets") to the sweet true love mangled beebop of Fats Comet's 'One and Only'. This is innovative music that will mash your speakers, force you to play it again and again and will leave your ears ringing."
