Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad
The mellow grooves
make it easy to find serenity, even if you happen to be the most uptight,
stuff-shirt ever to work in a tiny cubicle.
This is some of the most intense roots reggae we've ever heard, where worries
are abandoned, just for a moment. At the same time, no matter how well
these guys (and gal) throw down their smooth vibrations, they'll always be
willing to tackle the most experimental dub, always putting heavy emphasis on
pristine bass worship. Then there's the toasters, the placid, alliterative
rhymes that remind us that it's OK to just take it all in. Say goodbye to your
sober days, and come to the World Grotto on Saturday, June 9, at 10 pm. (K.C.)
