Music review: Salmonella Dub

Salmonella Dub. Commercial Grates: 25 Years, 30 Radio Cuts. Self-released. ★★★★★

Sublime. One of Aotearoa's very best live bands gift us their first compilation, told in reverse order, and of course it's brilliant.

The conceit is that it's tracks edited for radio, and therefore a countdown-slash-timeline of killer tunes ... there's nary a dud on it.

Disc one presents the later years, all sterling bass, croony vocals and top advice for life.

Disc two is for the fans ... you'll know the lot if you've been around.

A dull scene it would've been if not for these boys, so relax, take a pill, and ye audience enjoy of the fully earned.
