Customer Reviews

Sub Mind Bass Blowing!

Rating

At first I was so dubious about this, I wasnt sure I would like its 'dubby' feel or its Dancehall-Step as I was more interested in a sub-bass dubstep / grime fest. But this release has made me mature and avoid grimey angry litte brats!

Also, what really blew my mind was the connection to ICE, GOD, Techno Animal and Dalek! Brilliant!

Each song on this album is a winner, individual and so diverse and progressive. Considering I got into this genre via getting bored of low-end sonic doom (Sunn, Earth, Melvins)...I cant wait to get more of it!

SKENG!


London Zoo - The Bug

Rating

I read a review in the paper and went out on a limb for this record. I was really surprised how much I liked it. It covers a lot of the dubstep genre, whilst extending into others. Very good, and in my Top Ten of albums for 2008.


Album of the Year?

Rating

If this isn't the actual best album of the year it's damned close. A perfect mix of ragga, dance and dancehall. It's dark and gritty yet somehow has an uplifting feel to it. The sound of the UK today? Well certainly the sound of much of urban UK.
This is what British music should be about the heady mix of styles that create something special rather than endless Radiohead wanabees. You get the feeling that groundbreaking music is being made here. There is a Leftfield / Prodigy feel to it but it would be wrong to entirely link it - it' special because it is different.


Immaculate

Rating

Dancehall and ragga have never been my music choices at home. Yet, with 'London Zoo', I found myself strangely drawn to the extreme melting pressure of The Bug's sounds. This is a deeply futuristic album drawing on Caribbean heritage - and, as such, featuring some fierce MC-ing.

The lyrical content is intelligent, intelligible and interesting. The bass-lines are deeply sonic and the drums pound proudly across your ears.

These elements mean that 'London Zoo' is my tip for album of 2008.

I don't work for Ninja Tune, but when they release something like this - I wish I did.
