Cast your mind back to the mid-90s, when Newport, Wales was the unlikely source for ragga-metal pioneers Dub War! The band broke down the barriers of ragga, hip hop and metal with their two genre-defining albums "Pain" and "Wrong Side Of Beautiful" (both available in one low-price, high value package from this webstore).

Unfortunately the band's success was short-lived, following their break-up in 1999 amidst much speculation for the reasons. Lead singer Benji went on to form new band Skindred, whose last album sold more than 200,000 copies in the United States alone, as well as collaborating with the likes of Max Cavalera (Soulfly) and Rob Trujillio (Metallica), and standing in for Jonathan Davis at the 2006 Download Festival!

Now, this excellent CD/DVD package combines 12 rare and unreleased tracks, including 3 from the unreleased third Dub War album, as well as the most in-depth coverage of Dub War to date! Recorded in 2010, the DVD contains a 55 minute documentary detailing the history of Dub War from start to finish, and features in-depth interviews with all key members of the band.

The DVD also contains a full live set, filmed at the London Astoria on January 10, 1998, plus all six promo videos from the band.
