Album Notes & Community Reviews
With 'Earth Crisis', British reggae stalwarts Steel Pulse pivoted toward a highly polished, synthesizer-driven pop reggae sound aimed at the American market. Despite the sleek, futuristic production elements, the band maintained their core focus on conscious, political lyricism addressing global inequality and African diaspora themes.
