The self-titled debut from New Age Steppers, released on On-U Sound, unites members of the Slits, Pop Group, Flying Lizards, and Raincoats with Jamaican rhythm legends to create a powerful post-punk/dub fusion. Highlights include haunting covers of Junior Byles’ “Fade Away” and Bim Sherman’s “Love Forever” featuring Ari Up’s distinctive vocals. With contributions from Mark Stewart and Vivien Goldman, the album blends dub grooves with experimental soundscapes. A 40-year classic, this essential release includes new liner notes and interviews.
