Like some latter-day audio-manifested harbinger of doom, this record is haunted. Before the mghty LoDubs came into the picture, two other labels had, by turns, planned to release it, and both – for a variety of reasons have now ceased to exist. LoDubs have no fear of the black spot though, and even if the earth does swallow them up, it would be a fitting end at the hands of the southwest USA’s masters of the dub, South3rn. Ultimately, ‘Fully Loaded’ could be described as a spooky, but in that Upsetter vs. The Vampire way, with its reverb drenched, echo heavy skank. Along with South3rn’s much touted previous LoDubs outing ‘Mangione Tribe Dub’, this completes a sonic bouble-barrel about as epic as roots-centric Dubstep may ever get. Some big claim, for sure, but one that’ll resolutely withstand close and lengthy examination. As for the B Side, ‘Muslim Dub’ is pure spring steppiness, with lush, clean amplified riffing and lyrical toasting that evoke the feel of a soundclash dub circa 2047. As with all other LoDubs releases, mastering has been expertly executed by Transition, and the record is packaged in a the label’s trademark hand-stamped brown paper sleeve.

Gangsta leaning steppas from US producer South3rn for Lo Dubs. Fully loaded is a well skilled diversion from the usually tougher dubstep mutation on Lo dubs, based around a Loefah styled slouch beat South3rn brews some wicked dub chord progressions and snaking percussive lines for well useful soundsystem tool. 'Muslim dub' on the flip continues this fine form with a cracking dub variant, coming with some authentic echo chamber dub styles and beautifully melodic sing-a-long bassline that places this cut next to the jahtarian dubbers styles of Disrupt et al, and will definitely find favour with a lot of selectors. Aces.
