Italian reggae ambassadors in the world, Sud Sound System are back on a European Tour to present “Sta Tornu“, their last album, to their expat audience. The 19 tracks mirror the joy, the hope, the determination and the commitment the band has shown in their 20-year-long carreer. Dancehall, hip hop, dubstep, funk, rhytm&blues the mediterranean way are all to be found in this new journey.
The track entitled “In the Name Of Love” comes with a reggae version and also an acoustic rendition for all those musical connoisseurs who appreciate the more subtle delivery. “In The Name Of Love” is just the first of a string of new recordings that will be coming directly out of the Luciano stable, culminating into a new album to be released later in the year.

But that is a lie just fi try stack it up high
Well I never oblige I attack and survive

There are stories that must be told, or sung. For Train To Roots some of these stories have the name of the Diaz school in Genova, of Stefano Cucchi, the surveyor who died in the hospital one week after his detention in Rome, and of Stefano Aldrovandi, whose death was the responsibility of four policemen that have been sentenced for unintentional excess legitimate use of weapons.
It’s exactly two weeks after the historical decision of the European Court of Human Rights, that sentences Italy for torture during the raid of the Police at the Diaz school the night of July 21st, 2001, during G8 in Genova (Italy), that Train To Roots release a new single, Policegun, with a video. “A song that doesn’t mean to attack the police, we want to make a call: don’t lose your humanity, even wearing an uniform”, says Antonio Leardi, producer and musician of the band.
During the shooting of the Policegun video, the artist Giuseppe Todde created a graffiti artwork of a face with characteristics both of Carlo Giuliani and Federico Aldrovandi. The work, that will remain visible, has been done in Serramanna (Sardinia, Italy), on the walls of the former Cantina Sociale (Community winery), in agreement between the band and the local authorities.
Policegun is available on the INRI label website, and is the first single released form the new album, which is due at the end of the year and marks a return of the band to social and spiritual themes, to the roots, both on the musical and contents sides. In preparation for release of the new album, the band from Sardinia will be on tour in many European cities.

Reggae.Today is very proud to support IReggaeNation #GiveALittleLove Project! Jimmy Cliff: "Don't hurt the children; please, just love them" | #GiveALittleLove
We believe, to bring about far reaching positive changes to our society, it really doesn't take much, should we approach it collectively; and sometimes, it could take as little as a convincing message of hope and inspiration to help or support someone. That is the premise on which our IReggaeNation #GiveALittleLove Project was born.

30 pieces of sliver i said that was the price
you see the value man woulda put pon the blood of christ
for Joseph it was 20 they never liked his coat
for Bob a coulda more they never liked of what he spoke
inspite of all these notes i see the pattern them developing
Morality secondary to money greed and jealousy
thats how many fell you see and with that being said
i'd wondered if my brothers put a price upon my head
Ive heard that money makes friends and money makes foes
but money it is not all
cause when the dough ends and all the banks close
tell me who can you call
Who can you call
I've seen empires fall and wither down to dust
and all the money in the world it could not lift them up
most brilliant of ornaments crumble down to rust
because we put we faith in lust and disregard the trust
hell i know the rush
I've had the feeling take me over
the power in my hand when all the band over my shoulder
the bands of money coming in will change the ones around you
be wise you know because it cannot stop you getting older but still
i admit that i get caught up in the game
saw the legends do it naturally i did the same
so I'm rolling round the city
Ms. Jamaica deh den with me
Earth den pon me platter knowing all of this no matter
And do you think that with the last breath that you take
You'll be sitting thinking bout the money that you made
houses that you lived in cars you drove the bills you paid
and yet it is the focus what we do and what we say
what we give we energy
so you spend your life a work
acting like the money will be with you in the hearse
leaving all you family and friends to fight and search
that when you see the snakes come out and act like they deserve
like them put you on reserve
