The triumphant return of the original Ragga-Metal dons... DUB WAR! "Westgate Under Fire" is the band's first new album of new material in over 26 years after originally signing to Earache Records in the mid 90s. Featuring 13 tracks of politically charged hip-hop infused punk metal, Dub War is spearheaded by frontman Benji Webbe, who also fronts the hugely successful metal band SKINDRED. Benji is widely renowned as one of the best live front men in metal and has won multiple awards.
'Westgate Under Fire' builds upon the groundbreaking sound that Dub War are known and loved for. Working its way through ragga-punk (see the punk rock cover of the Max Romeo and the Upsetters' classic “War Inna Babylon”, which features the legendary Ranking Roger of The Beat in his last ever recording before his sad passing in 2019), sinister metal with exotic beats (“Coffin Lid”), and hip-hop infused metal (“Vibes In The Place”). “We had no need to wander far from our original sound,” affirms Benji. The album also packs a punch with its lyricism, as in the critical messages enfolded in the likes of “Blackkk Man”.
A band which take pride in their hometown, 'Westgate Under Fire' shines a light on a crucial event in Newport's history, the Newport Uprising. An event which would play a role in transforming democracy in Britain and the world, the uprising in 1839 saw thousands from the Chartist movement march through south Wales, seeking social reform, including the right for men of all classes to vote. The marches ended in a bloody battle at the Westgate Hotel, which saw many of the Chartists dead or wounded. 'Westgate Under Fire' aims to embody the empowerment that Chartists took upon themselves all those years ago and coincides with the local community resurrecting the derelict Westgate Hotel into an exciting new venue.
Whilst fellow Newport resident and good friend Mikee “KRUPA” Gregory took to the skins for many of the album's tracks, 'Westgate Under Fire' sees six different drummers offer their rhythm-keeping for the album. “Adding six different drummers from around the world was a very exciting prospect for us. Each drummer was a friend and a fan of Dub War who brought their own unique blend, and has made this album probably the most entertaining to date, with each track taking you on a sonic journey,” enthuses Benji.

Is this the one for you? It was for me!
Color: Black, Color: Black
Okay so if you are like me and shop last minute before a major event then this is perfect. I went through pages and pages on here to find a bag that let's be honest here will only be used once and put away. So I decided on this one because of the style and color as it will go perfectly with my emerald green dress that I am wearing to my bestie's son's wedding literally next month. The size is perfect and the quality is on point. Yes the bag is a little stiff when opening for the first time but if you plan to use this constantly then it should be more pliable over time. This will hold what I intend to take with me which is just the basics so the functionality will be great and the fact that it travels well is another point for this evening bag. Big value for the money and easy to use. If you like it buy it, if not find one that suits your needs and style and budget. This is a keeper.

Beware of the smell
Color: Black
Starting with the likes about this product:
1. Beautiful design
2. Large enough for my cell phone
3. Most important it matched my HEEZ Women's Ballet Flats Shoes
Now for the dislikes:
1. The chemical smell coming from the bag was soooo strong my eyes watered and my nose burned just a little. There is no way I could carry this purse with out that smell wafting through the air. IT WAS THAT STRONG.
2. The flap was a little stiff to bend, so closing was a little hard to get it in position. I'm sure if you opened and closed it a few time it would loosen up.
Bottom line I only gave it a 3 star because of the smell and I am retuning it. Not sure if you air out the bag for a few days if the smell would go away but I didn't want to risk it.

Love it
I really like this handbag. The pebbled leather texture looks elegant and feels good quality. It is small but still fits my daily essentials like phone, wallet, and keys.
The top handle gives a classy look, and the adjustable strap makes it easy to wear as a shoulder bag. The magnetic closure is convenient and easy to open and close.
It looks stylish for both casual and dressy outfits. I am very happy with this bag.

Love everything about it!
Color: Brown
Absolutely love this bag! It’s real
Leather! It’s soft and slouchy. Has MANY inside pockets which like because I carry a little bit of everything. Has plenty of room without being overly huge. I’m using the crossbody strap to keep the weight off my shoulder and my hands free. This is a good handbag…and I am picky! This is the 4th bag (brand) I have gone thru this year alone. I’m gonna stick with this one (brand) til it wears out.
