The Attractors - Love Bombs LP
SKU: JUMP166 OverviewDescription:
US import!
THE ATTRACTORS “Love Bombs” was written and recorded primarily
during Covid era lockdown times and the music therein reflects that
energy. This isn’t another rosy Ska record, it’s raw, dark, and
even downright evil at times, all while maintaining a sense of
searching and forward momentum.
Since the (Brooklyn) Attractor’s award-winning release “Good Evil
Alchemy” in 2012, the instrumental Ska and Reggae group has been
refining their formula and adding to an already impressive list of
guest musicians. In addition to three-time Grammy winning guitarist
and Toots and Maytals guitar legend, Andy Bassford, 27 year
congalero for Gill Scott Heron, Larry McDonald, Easystar Allstars
trombonist, Buford O’sullivan, and Mephiskapheles bass
extraordinaire, Dan Jeselsohn, their 3rd full-length studio release
“Love Bombs” adds Skatalites main stay, Ken Stewart, Stubborn
Allstars founder, King Django, Slackers tenor man, David Hillyard,
as well as Thaddeus Merritt, the original Bass player and founding
member of the Boston Ska group Westbound Train, to the list of
credits. Love Bombs was written and recorded primarily during Covid
era lockdown times and the music therein reflects that energy. This
isn’t another rosy Ska record, it’s raw, dark, and even downright
evil at times, all while maintaining a sense of searching and
forward momentum. After all, that’s what tough times require. There
is no doubt that the line up, writing, musicianship, as well as
stylistic approach, contained within Love Bombs, will not
disappoint even the most discerning Ska and Reggae fans. Red and
blue vinyl boh limited to 150 copies each!
