Gold Burger

Fundamental: “Gold Burger” (Nation Records)

Aside from Massive Attack Fundamental are the best dance band around at the moment. ‘Gold Burger’ has a seriously heavy rhythmic backbeat, accompanied by the usual glorious chant-like singing. It journeys through the landmark struggles for freedom by non-white liberators such as Marcus Garvey, Steve Biko and Mahatma Gandhi. Essential and inventive.
