Fantastic afro-funk from Australian 10-piece outfit The Liberators who capture the fraught vibes and brutal power of the genre with a mastery that has sent them to the top of the pile amongst the legion producing this kind of sound today. ‘Cairo Uprising’ is a Budos Band style driving horn lead powerhouse, ‘Red Green Live Die’ ups the tempo with a great dancefloor appeal, ‘Dos Caras’ is another polyrhythmic highlight with some great synth lines and horn solos, whilst Roxie Ray of Dojo Cuts adds the only vocal moment on the closing track, “Water Somewhere”. Brilliantly consistent, consistently brilliant.
