"Spacey dubology from Ethiopia, Jamaica, London ... Transglobal Underground's Count Dubulah rides out again as the leader of his pan-ethnic collective ... Where new songs such as the title track or "Whole Lotta Dub", and remixes of "Addis To Omega" and "Fight Back", differ from previous albums is in the space, the music elongated and pulled to breaking point as only the best dub odysseys can be. A thumping slice of beat-heavy, jazzy consciousness".

"This, their fifth album (...), finds [Nick] Page once again working with a mix of stalwart UK musicians from his Dub Colossus Band and friends from Ethiopia on a 14-track set combining new material with reworkings and remixes of songs from their last album proper, 2014's "Addis To Omega". It's a pleasingly smoky musical stew of all the Dub Colossus influences. The sparse echo-chamber dub sound, spikey social comment (as on the darkly humorous "Brexitbus Remix" of "Tainted Dub") and sometimes edge-of-jazzy daring are off-set by melodic invention and the warmth of the groove throughout".
