“Up here a war a gwan, so we must unite to fight against Babylon/ We’re tired of the lies! We want the truth!” – New 5 song release with Brasil’s Junior Dread “Revolution 2 Freedom” out now on Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes and everywhere on Juneteenth: Friday, June 19. Out early exclusively on Bandcamp June 4. New lyric video soon come!
Are you with us? We hope this music will spark a fire in you to join us in charting a path out of these dark times and into the light. A revolutionary anthem for a world boiling over in the fight against corrupt politics, police, & discrimination – built by NYC’s Subatomic Sound System & favela raised Brazilian singer Junior Dread who channels Bob Marley’s defiant soul to chant down Babylon & stand up for your rights – in the USA, Brasil, or anywhere that can relate to this experience. Composed while producing Lee “Scratch” Perry’s acclaimed “Super Ape Returns To Conquer” album, Subatomic taps those classic sounds for a new 21st century roots steppers dub style, a staple on recent tours — more relevant now than ever. Percussion legend Larry McDonald on congas.
