: Release Notes: \/ , \/ ,
' '
,: The second album from the Selecter since vocalists Pauline Black :,
: and Arthur "Gaps" Hendrickson revived the band in 2010, 2017's :
:' Daylight follows a similar template to 2015's Subculture, in ':
,: which Black and Hendrickson reworked the band's approach away :,
: from the 2-Tone attack of their first incarnation to a more :
:' rootsy sound that's part Jamaican ska and part roots reggae. ':
,: :,
: While it may not quite be the Selecter as fans of Too Much :
:' Pressure remember them, this edition of the band cuts an ':
,: impressive groove, and they sound even stronger and more :,
: confident than before on Daylight. Neil Pyzer, who co-wrote the :
:' songs, leads the group on sax, guitar, and keyboards, and he ':
,: and his accompanists deliver a taut, potent sound that connects :,
: solidly. This group skanks with potent authority throughout, :
:' especially the tireless rhythm section of bassist Luke Palmer ':
,: and drummer Winston Marche. (Jools Holland also contributes :,
: piano on the title cut.) :
:' ':
,: Daylight also reflects the state of the world in 2017, with a :,
: more defiant tone and a socio-political consciousness that :
:' informs songs like "Paved with Cold," "Frontline," "Pass the ':
,: Power," and "Taking Back Control." Even the album's token song :,
: about love, "3 Reasons," is admirably tough and lacking in :
:' sentimentality as Black shouts down a man who has abandoned ':
,: her. And while Hendrickson's vocals are weathered but effective, :,
: Black is as strong a singer as she was in the early '80s, and :
:' her passion and power add immeasurably to the album's impact. ':
,: :,
: The Selecter may still be best remembered for their part in the :
:' U.K. ska explosion of the early '80s, but Daylight shows they ':
,: don't have to rest on past glories; they're creating a new body :,
: of work that's smart, energetic, and powerful. :
