Generals

The Herbaliser

A track single () — released May 9th 2005 on NINJA TUNE

Imagine, if you please, a crack unit of army drop-outs, institutionalised, dislocated from their surroundings and generally fucked in the head, and then let out on day release to devastate a city near you. That, my friends, is the Generals, a full-rhymer tag team who make up foir what they lack in sanity with pure chops. The mastermind behind this explosion of dysfunctional rhyme armament? It was long-time Herbaliser collaborator Jean Grae who decided to bust out a group of frontline MC soldiers from right across the USA and bring them together to cause mayhem. Brooklyn, Boston, Atlanta, Harlem and the Bronx: never before has such a team of misfits been featured together on one record? The Herbaliser, revelling in their production role, captured the essence of this madness and set it to music. Horn fanfares, machine gun drum fills, strings played on razor wire. This isn't so much the A Team as the ARGH! Team. Loving that their plan had come together Messrs Wherry and Teeba served 'The Generals' up as the first course from an album that promises to bite backTake London!' It's an album that shows that the Herbaliser have lost none of their appetite for the fray, or for the constant self-improvement which has made them one of the UK's most consistent hip hop production teams of the last decade. Watch out for the ground- breaking video coming soon from Chris Ratcliffe and the imminent announcement of tour dates. In the meantime, get yourself a helmet, and stay down, soldier?'
