Album Description "A certifiable genius." - BBC "Lee Perry is a towering figure in reggae - a producer, mixologist, and songwriter who, along with King Tubby, helped shape the sound of dub and made reggae music such a powerful part of the pop music world." - ALL MUSIC GUIDE Fresh from his Grammy win for Best Reggae Album, Lee "Scratch" Perry has granted the wish of many and returned with yet another amazing release! Panic in Babylon is the new full-length epic, with a unique catchiness and hypnotizing rhythm only Perry's hands could bring to life. Relax and soak in the album's sharply enriching tones as the renowned "Father of Dub" takes you for a psychotropic journey throughout life's highs and lows. Each tune's signature reggae echo bounces giddily off the inner walls of your head, sending thick, magnetic currents throughout your legs and hips. Lee "Scratch" Perry, being the sly producer he is, adds a distinctly untried edge to Panic in Babylon. The album's backing musicians have shared stories of Perry's constant approach with newfangled ideas - suggestions that seem musically impossible but, when executed, end up making absolute sense. Originally released in Switzerland in 2005, Panic in Babylon is set to hit U.S. shores in August 2006. The Narnack version features a bonus disc of new collaborations with George Clinton, TV on the Radio, DJ Spooky, and more! Similar CDs

CD ReviewsNice Album! Feelin' Irie | Vallejo, CA USA | 09/11/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I first heard the track "I Am A Psychiatrist" on my Sirius satellite radio, and I was immediately hooked! This track is so BOMB (good) that I wanted to buy the cd immediately. I listened to samples of the rest of the disc at my local record store with equal approval. While many fans consider Scratch an icon in reggae music, I have generally been disappointed with a lot of his works (bad production values, inane lyrics, forgettable stuff). Not so with this one. I believe that reggae music fans in general and Scratch fans in particular will find favor with this offering." Solid CD Kenneth M. Goodman | Cleveland, Ohio United States | 09/05/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "Panic In Babylon is solid and strong, some of the best reggae Scratch has made in decades! On the main CD there are no dubs, only vocal tracks...so be warned if you prefer your reggae vocal-free...but in spite of that, each and every track is EXCELLENT...strong musically and interesting lyrics throughout. Clean crisp bass...mysterious melodies. This is a terrific work from the Upsetter!" Yeah... Alaya | USA | 01/12/2008 (5 out of 5 stars) "'Voodoo' is the gem for me. I heard it on a website I was visiting and knew I had to have it. I'm not a huge reggae person either, but this is great dub/chill music and I love the whole CD."
