Gentleman’s Dub Club’s Down to Earth album features catchy choruses and super danceable jams
At the end of last week, Gentleman’s Dub Club released a catchy new album titled Down to Earth. This was Dailyreggae.com’s first time listening to an album from the band hailing from the United Kingdom, and we are digging Down to Earth’s catchy choruses, strong vocal deliveries and super danceable jams. Looking for some new music to jam to this week? Definitely check out Gentleman’s Dub Club!
The album released by Easy Star Records is the band’s latest full album release since 2019’s Lost in Space and Pound for Pound (Dub Versions). Easy Stary Records said in a release, “Partly recorded in Crosstown Studios and partly finished off at home, GDC’s 8th studio album was caught up in the midst of lockdown, sparking a window of opportunity to take the production to a whole new level. From live drums to heavy digital work, meticulous detail in the record shines through from the get-go, as album opener ‘Castle In The Sky’ demonstrates.”
According to a release from Press Junkie PR, the album hit the number one spot in the UK iTunes Reggae chart.
The band said in the release, “The writing of ‘Down To Earth’ coincided with a time not only of international existential crisis, but also of our own personal realisation that the future for live music – the main platform and ultimately life force of GDC – was up in the air. We decided that ‘Down To Earth’ should be a snapshot of that point in time, where everyone was able (for better or worse) to reflect on their role in the world around them and consider the past, present and future inside the vacuum of lockdown. While it’s a deeply personal album, the themes and sentiments on the album are universal, and point towards a future that values love and understanding over conflict and hate.”
Good vibes! Thank you, Gentleman’s Dub Club, for sharing this awesome music with us! We cannot wait until you’re back on the road playing live music.
