"The wealth of melting pot late 90's London -Bim Sherman pounds, teases, cracks, tickles; who's that? Lee Perry on "vocal"? Bottom-of-the-well bass, with scintillating and inventive tablas, tasteful guitar licks, keyboard bubbles: Adrian Sherwood mixes a scintillating brew. Don't miss this one. Use yer 'phones.."

A great disc and still not even one of their best!

"As you might have guessed, Dub Syndicate is a reggae outfit. Lead by Style Scott, it's one of the super powers of the critically-acclaimed/commercially-invisible On-U Sound collective. On-U Sound brought head-trip dub back to the masses in the Eighties via Tackhead, African Head Charge, the mighty Dub Syndicate, Gary Clail, Mark Stewart, and about a million remixes. Echomania itself features the production of On-U mastermind Adrian Sherwood and the tabla talent of Talvin Singh, as well as guest vocals by Lee "Scratch" Perry ("Dubbing Psycho Thriller" & "Dubaddisababa" and Michael `Spearhead' Franti ("No No")."
