Nothing In The Larder

by Black Roots

supported by

congealedmeat This album by Black Roots is a bit of a different sound to a lot of their albums and it's a good sound! "Nothing In The Larder" is a real classic Black Roots song in my opinion.

The band, especially the brass, deserve special mention on this one.
Favorite track: Nothing In The Larder.

With "Nothing In The Larder", Black Roots creates another original set of tracks and brings in some of the best musicians based in the UK.
Together they bring a new sound, despite the narrow confines of roots
reggae. The message is strong, coherent and relevant in today's world of pandemic inequality, racism and discrimination.

Uncertainty and global distrust reign due to the world's politicians, whose objective is to reduce individual freedoms and to submit populations to their will. It is in this context that Black Roots uses, as usual, roots reggae to get his message across.

In "Enlightenment", the group calls us to see beyond reality and to rise spiritually; the message is carried by beautiful layers of brass, which reinforces this impression of escape.

Through the reggae melodies of "Nothing in the Larder", the band provides a timely reminder that we must continue to promote equality, justice and open-mindedness.
