The Black Seeds are a New Zealand band who are crafting some seriously fresh dub reggae tracks with subtle nuances of Afrobeat, funk, and even a surf rock sound (that description sounds good enough to eat, I know. Too much "Iron Chef America" lately.)
The group consists of 8 members and a past lineup even included Bret McKenzie, half of the Flight of the Conchords duo.
They've released 5 studio albums to date, but none of them have really seen major success stateside...that all could change FAST.
Their most recent LP, "Solid Ground" is finally being released in the U.S. on Easy Star records on September 29, 2009. Expect track after track of vibrant reggae rooted sounds but with a modern twist that's as inviting as warm milk.
