Rating: - Sub Mind Bass Blowing!
At first I was so dubious about this, I wasnt sure I would like its 'dubby' feel or its Dancehall-Step as I was more interested in a sub-bass dubstep / grime fest. But this release has made me mature and avoid grimey angry litte brats!

Also, what really blew my mind was the connection to ICE, GOD, Techno Animal and Dalek! Brilliant!

The lyrical content is intelligent, intelligible and interesting. The bass-lines are deeply sonic and the drums pound proudly across your ears.

These elements mean that 'London Zoo' is my tip for album ... Read More

Kevin Martin aka `The Bug' has collaborated with some of leftfields finest including John Zorn, EL-P and Anti-Pop Consortium as well as recording for labels as diverse as Virgin, Rephlex, Position Chrome/Mille Plateaux, Hyperdub and Tigerbeat.
