Access Denied (Deluxe) (RSD 21)

This Record store Day release adds a new version of ”Comin’ Over Here” featuring another section from Stewart Lee’s classic monologue plus two previously unreleased tracks from a special one-off with none other than Adrian Sherwood at the controls. It also includes two brand new remixes digidub style by Panda Dub and Manudigital and a new version of the album artwork specially designed for the RSD edition.

Access Denied finds Asian dub Foundation as uncompromising as ever. The album showcases ADF in full spectrum mode from the tough Jungle Punk sound of Stealing The Future and Mindlock through to the orchestral meditation of Realignment and the reggae lament of the title track. With guestspots from Greta Thunberg, incendiary Palestinian shamstep warriors 47 Soul, Chilean revolt’s rap main figure Ana Tijoux and radical UK comedian Stewart Lee, Asian Dub Foundation continue their sonic opposition to the powers that be and Access Denied kicks harder and higher than ever.
