Dub Trio
Around a pint of beer, cup of tea, or glass of soda, our conversation could veer in the direction of something which I feel is really, really fascinating. Something which just blows my mind. Something which is so great it sort of defies what I believe. If that be the case, it’s quite likely you’ll hear me say:
“That puts the lime in the coconut.”
I mention this totally uninteresting and potentially reputation-cracking tidbit because Dub Trio definitely puts the lime in the coconut. It’s the most appropriate way for me to hail their work. Their combination of rock and dub genus makes for a surprisingly heavy yet entirely groovy sound where both thrashing and two-stepping seem completely appropriate. I mean, if you’re of the persuation that there is such a time where two-stepping is appropriate.
Not to mention that vicious drooling kittens as cover art limes the coconut even more. See how I did that? Made a verb out of a noun? I’m so clever.
