Now don�t go telling people and ruining my hardnosed metal head reputation, but I am really grooving on this new disc from local ska-funk-punk band One Drop. The seven peice band is just so unforgivingly good at molding catchy, memorable, hook-filled tunes (guess this stuff is hook--filled by nature, come to think of it, but whatever); even when things get a bit too hippy dippy, its still a hell of a lot better than any ear-ripping and taste-offending aural onslaughts you�ll hear at the next protest (hmmm has my cynicism shined throuhg yet>) Throughout the 13 tunes on this 40 minuite disc, One Drop manages to completely entertain, except for the last two songs where things start to drag a bit. Be it reggae, ska, dub, or punk One Drop can do it all with ease.

Hey Brandon, I haven't even heard your damn cd yet. No matter probably all skanky ska skank anyway. When are you and rozlo gonna put out the country lounge core album that I know you have within you. Now that'd be some good music. Yee Haw - Sat, 17 Apr 2004 7:34pm

Its a good disc, I really dig it. Nev did a nice job doing with the recording. Ya'll played proper on it. I particularly like the authentic roots reggae vibe that rears it head throughout. ('Ska' is cool, but nothing beats righteous roots riddims for me)

I bought a copy online in order to test the paypal experience. The CD itself is superior and well made. Did you guys do all the package design as well? So glad the 'bus' made it onto the cover. I remember hanging out at the side of your van before the burnside show to soak in the ganja and the tunes coming from within...

Hell, if Pratt thought Ruby Dub was long, I can't wait to see what he says about the People's War Dub Side... I look forward to it. - Sun, 18 Apr 2004 4:36pm

Hey Brandon, I wanna hear the actual cd, not some crap ass internet application. Do I look like like the kind of lazy pothead video game playing no ambition loser who has time to sit in front of a computer and listen to music. By the by, what's with the rooster on the cover. Is it because you're all a bunch of cocks or is it because you guys all have a predeliction for funky rooster lovin' sex hi-jinxs. I know I have a hard time refusing the tight little stinkholes of various poultry from time to time. Yeah. Do it! - Mon, 19 Apr 2004 5:46pm
