In order to contrast the other extrememly optimistic reviews, i have to contradict. If you are interested in Steel Pulse buy Earth Crisis, True Democracy, Sound System, Handsworth Revolution. This album is dissapointing and it just doesn't compare. In the past it seems that SP just had things to sing about and the music came out naturaly. One review says they send a strong cultural message, the third track is about having a crush on your teacher. It seems like they are forcing it. Also there is just too much synthesising, and electric guitar solo's. Its not a bad album and some my like it. You might want to listen to it a little before you buy it. Download songspy or limewire now that napsters gone. I can only give it two stars.

The best reggae group of time5
this cd ranks up there with earth crisis and true democracy as their best work. This isnt no ub40, this group has substance check out save black music, not the king james version and blessed is the man. Plus the ballads dont be afraid and love walks out are crucial. David Hinds is at his lyrical best on this cd, if you want to hear the best i recommend this cd.

Not a Good Choice3
This is an ok Steel Pulse album. The band has gone from a roots style, to a typical 80's music style where you hear the electronic drums, and the overdone synth sounds that wreck the music. The songs Save Black Music, Sugar Daddy, Kick That Habit, and Love Walks Out are the only songs worth listening to. Buy this album only if your familiar with reggae and Steel Pulse. Buy Handsworth Revolution, Reggae Fever, or True Democracy. Reggae Greats is also good. Those albums will show what Steel Pulse is capable of.
