Aggrolites Reviews

Avg. Customer Rating:
5.0 (based on 9 reviews)

The Los Angeles dirty reggae collective is at its finest on this fifth album, even though it is not without fault. The CD's pacing is quite heterogeneous. In fact, the first half is made up of an R&B pastiche (Trial and Error), a dub gem (Enemy Dub), a mellow first-wave ska instrumental (Dreamin on Erie) and a kitschy calypso homage (Eye of Obarbas)...

As it stands, Rugged Road is bona fide dirty reggae laced with a handful of dub reverberations, delivering a stripped down version of the Aggrolites' signature sound. The focus of these songs is quintessential reggae: wailing organ, upstroked guitars and boot-stomping beats. However, standing in the shadow of the band's previous work, Rugged Road falls short of developing its own unique voice...

The Aggrolites are a great reggae / ska band and this, their fourth album (appropriately named IV), hits the streets on June 9 courtesy of Hellcat Records...

In the interest of full disclosure, I am not a ska fan. The genre in general just doesn't do it for me. To my ears, it's a somewhat homogenized and monotonous sound, and ultimately has something of a narcoleptic effect on me. So it was with trepidation that I approached The Aggrolites, a reggae outfit from Los Angeles. To my surprise, they won me over right at the outset...

Aggro albums take a while to wrestle down, but as some of the standouts on IV are the soulful Feelin' Alright, straight-up soul track By Her Side, and Tear That Falls, the obvious observation is that the Aggros are transitioning. Aggro-style dirty reggae has always relied on soul, so this isn't discomfiting, but it merits mention that the further they get from the fiery, rollicking, make-the-room-explode stuff of their past, the more some fans are going to feel let down...

It's hard to believe that a band that named themselves after the British slang for aggression ('aggro') could deliver such chill and laidback tunes. Aggrolites'known both for being an act on their own, as well as the backing band for Tim Armstrong's (of Rancid) solo efforts'serve up something smooth on their latest release Reggae Hit L.A. The album ranges from dubbed out to upbeat, keeping the listener guessing what's next...

In Southern California, ersatz ska bands are easier to find than street-corner oranges. Which is why this nineteen-track effort from the Aggrolites -- an amalgamation of musicians who originally came together to back legendary Jamaican singer Derrick Morgan -- is such a glorious, surprising treat...

This L.A. band does ska and reggae rather expertly -- and without the boneheaded, party-hearty schlock that infested the Cali version of those genres in the Nineties. The Aggrolites' third album is long on well-crafted summertime jams like "Free Time" and more tender songs like "Let's Pack Our Bags." That said, Reggae Hit L.A. feels like a ho-hum rehash -- well done, but not particularly interesting unless you're seeing them live, are a big fan of the genre or need some barbecue music.

Adapting their name from their heroes The Aggrovators and the Crystalites, the Aggrolites are a California reggae band with a truly amazing knack for replicating the sounds of late sixties, early seventies Jamaican reggae. They're so good at reproducing a classic reggae sound that they were chosen as Prince Buster's backing band when Mr. Dread played at the Sierra Nevada World Music Festival in 2003...
