Alternative Press just gave “IV” 4 stars!
“Ends Justify the Means dials back player calisthenics for dubstep wobbles and 1:1.618 is steeped in Four Tet-style fractured electornica, the menacing En Passant and the driving Patient Zero will encourage you to attack someone with a titanium nine iron.”

“Dub Trio plays spacious reggae grooves spiked
with high-adrenaline punk rock.” – NY Times
Dub Trio is back with their fourth and most powerful album to date – IV – an overwhelming blend of sounds, styles and ideas that come out swinging, and hit harder than ever. Can metal coexist with dub’s bass heavy riddims? Dub Trio’s newest album proves that not only can such incongruities coexist, but that in the right hands they flourish! With IV the band succeeds dramatically at emphasizing the theories, emotions, sounds, and concepts of their current musical exploration. IV finds the members playing multiple instruments, tweaking, turning & torturing knobs, cutting and chopping the audio itself, and shaping the compositions to create their own unique interpretation of ‘dub’ as an art form.

Two years after releasing their critically acclaimed album “Bush Rock” and a year removed from dropping “10 Deadly Shots”, the ‘Plant is back stronger and with their deep in the pocket roots sound in full effect.
