Clubroot - Self Titled 2009


I have something a little different then whats been posted so far for my little Maggots today. I give you all Clubroot's self titled album from 2009, a magnificent example of dubstep that doesn't sound like robots fucking on cocaine. Yes instead of say some Skrillex inspired hyperactive "Mosh-step" nonsense, Clubroot delivers the goods with some calm, spacy and sometimes down-right eerie ambient dubstep tracks. I can't overstate how well these tracks work as nightly listening material, each track give off this feeling of wandering in a grey fog in the woods, or walking the concrete jungle of a city at night, not particularly lost but with no intentional direction either. I'm sure a few of us know that feeling quite well. As I said the tracks are more along the ambient side, with the dubstep influencing coming from the pace and pattern of the drum beats as opposed to the loud booming bass its usually affiliated with. That's right, there are no bass drops to be found here, but to be honest that's a very good thing. Instead be prepared to sit back and slam that plunger full of musical heroine into your veins as Clubroot demonstrates what it truly means to "Dub" electronically.
