Battle of Armagideon is one of the essential albums by
Jamaican reggae artist Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry. His backing
group by that time were The Upsetters. This album will
get you to the heart of Perry’s unique work as a mixer and
producer. He explores the music by adding a lot of sound
effects to the different tracks. “I’m a Madman” is the best
known album track, where Perry is going to the max. It’s
pure craziness at it’s best.
Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry was a pioneer in the 1970s development
of dub music and worked together with artists such as Bob
Marley and the Wailers, The Clash and The Beastie Boys.
Nowadays he’s still performing and recording music. |
