African Head Charge - Songs Of Praise

I have to confess to not being overly familiar with this outfit but the name has crossed my path many times and I finally got to hear them a couple of days ago.

Take the foundations of Dub with it's bass heavy sound and monotonous beats and then overlay the tribal beats of Africa and vocal lines and you get an album that is easy on the ear, yet refreshingly full of vitality and spirit.

I can't really add anymore but to say that if you want to spread your wings musically and sample something a little off the beaten track then give it a chance. An album that brings a little ray of sunshine into these grey days.
