New Chapter of Dub

Fantastic

I love this CD

For good reason it's called a classic.

By far the best dub album EVER. The first track sparks your interest, all the remaining tracks do not disappoint, they tantalize you with smooth unexpected breaks, rhythms and dub sections that speaks to you like a voice, (high level message in the music) then they hit you with Last track that assaults you senses at every level. Don’t be surprised if your breathing hard after that track. Big Up to the late Mikey Dread his dub handiwork is all over this album. Wicked Mon

Even though we are all Aswad fan, I must say I'm not satisfied with some of these reviews. Yes Aswad's "A New Chapter Of Dub" contains the classical "Dub Fire" (the Dub version of "Love Fire"), it also contains other classical tracks. For instance "Mikaflame" & "Ghetto In The Sky" are some others that have been very over looked, I believe these should have atleast made it to some of their compilations. "Bammie Blow" another classic, how the horns were playing on this song, I can see why they call it "Bammie Blow". Plus, I have past experiences of feeling more relaxed and it almost as if I was high! "Truth" is phenomenal, PERIOD! This Dub is so phenomenal when I play it I can't believe it was made in '82. This Dub actually made me believe that Hip Hop is a branch off of Reggae music. Now don't get me wrong, it contains it's Reggae style the tempo, bass line, and beat drops gives it a Hip Hop feeling. "Zion I" gives you the Rastafarian feeling every Reggae album needs, just listen for your self. Even though I haven't mention "Tuffist" and "Shining Dub", don't get the wrong idea they're still great songs to listen to. Over all I believe this is the GREATEST DUB ALBUM OF ALL TIME!!!

This is my first aswad album and I wasn't let down. A classic from start to finish. ZionI and Dubfire are standout tracks.

The original album 'New Chapter' was Aswad at it it's best; before they went into a more 'Top 40' direction. This is the dub version of that album. If you like dub versions, this is the best ever made. I burned a CD combning both albums on one disc with each original song followed by it's dub version - Fantastic!! Highly recommended.

This is the companion-piece to "New Chapter" - every track in dub version in reverse order of the original album. Hence, the final killer track, "Love Fire" becomes the opening killer "Dub Fire" on this. It's all great stuff. It was basically downhill from here, so if you like this pair, go back ("Aswad", "Hulet" and the brilliant "Showcase") and not too far forward ("Not Satisfied" and the excellent "Live & Direct")

Tuffist Ruffist Drummie Zeb on another planet here his work is awesome Aswad really went in on this and New Chapter Album which preceded this dub album love them both, check out Drummie Zebs work with Aswad on the Burning Spear live at the Rainbow Theatre Album his drum playing is a master class that's if you can find it its so rare also his alternative work with George Oban such as Basshoven, Hulet, and Motions Aswad for me one of the best bands of all time.

I also bought a vinyl copy on release in 1979,still dig it out occasionally and then realise it still sounds great.This is definitely the pinnacle of their recorded work when performing as a serious roots/dub outfit.Great live band also,Drummie Zebs drumming is awsome throughout driving ever changing rythms and creative arrangements.Must have dub experience!.Will be getting the CD.

Terrific dubs ya. Check it out yarrrr.

The whole album is great

Sin duda es uno de los mejores trabajos de dub de Uk. Un verdadero clásico del reggae infaltable en una colección.La versión dub tuvo mayor repercusión y éxito que el disco original New Chapter.La reedición suena bastante bien en 180g y no trae ningún tipo de material adicional.
