great reggae/ska band that does cover albums, I've only had the luxury of listening to their rendition of Radiohead's OK Computer, it's awesome. definitely check it out and let me know other material they have.

Dub Side of the Moon and Radiodread is some of the best reggae i've heard. In fact i prefer Dub Side to the original.

I love the Floyd album, but the OKCOMPUTER one just does'nt work for me. The songs are too disjointed to create that reggae groove.

indeed, perhaps one of my favorite third wave ska bands.

I am loving Dub Side of the Moon. The original was pretty good but not really in my tastes. This version is quite good though and the groove makes the sweet slow tunes even more trippy.

They're releasing Easy Stars Lonely Dub Band on April 14th.

Oh shit yes.

This is going to be epic. I've only bothered myself to download the Radiodread covers but them tackling the Beatles is something I don't want to miss.

Their E.P Until That Day released last year features their own material and is bloody fantastic. LMK if anyone wants it. They are Easy Star All Stars not 'dub' stars.

From the E.P. Opening track:
