The Archives don’t get nearly as much recognition as they should, especially here in DC, their
hometown. Comprised of members that have played with some of reggae’s all-time greatest, their new LP stands out as true winner among a sea of tepid, watered-down roots reggae releases that seem to be the norm as of late. “Crime,” with Desi Hyson on vocals is not your typical pro-ganja tune. The lyrics are thoughtful, original, and not full of the ganja cliches that plague most pro-ganja reggae tunes. Check out the song below and be sure to cop the new LP (produced by Eric Hilton of the Thievery
Corporation)
