I've heard so much about these guys and i've got some question for you musicly knowledgeable netphorians...

They say they were able to merge hardcore-punk with reggae (not one or the other) but I can't see it in any of their songs... All I've heard is from the 'I Against I' album and I can't see any obvious merging there, not at least like the Red Hot Chili Peppers creation of funk-punk anyway... Is it in the subtleties of their sound or whats going on with em that I don't see?

On their later stuff the reggae sound is much more upfront. Im half thinking about seeing them sunday in toronto, depends on how hungover i am.

If you can't hear it on the title track you're pretty dumb, but the majority of that album is more straight up hardcore. Its also their best album.

If you're so smart tell me exactly how it's reggae-ish at all...
