Preview of tracks from the album 'Disgraceland' by Steve Drewett & The Indestructible Beat

The squatted terraces of Dickenson Road and the bitter winter of 2009/2010 provided fertile ground for the formation of Black Star Dub Collective. Influenced by bass soaked sound system culture, radical politics and the reality of the social situation of todays youth, Black Star began.... 

After the demise of their old stomping ground the band relocated to North Manchester's post industrial wasteland Ancoats, and the real work comenced. After a year of writting, demoing and revolutionising their playing style Black Star Dub Collective are ready to take their socially concious reggae sounds to the ears of the underground.
