ALBUM REVIEW: The Selecter – Human Algebra | XS Noize

Here is our North American West Coast tour with Rhoda Dakar, all dates are below & a NEW DATE has been added in Las Vegas! Meet & Greets are available at all shows! Very happy to finally officially announce our brand new studio album HUMAN ALGEBRA will be released on 21 April. Can’t wait to share it with you! In October 2017 the band released a new studio album Daylight it was greeted with critical acclaim. Daylight looked at the modern world with classic Selecter energy, wit and danceability. I ask how she felt about the death of the Specials’ singer, Terry Hall. She says she was far closer to Ranking Roger, from the Beat, and was very upset when he died, in 2019 (one of the songs on Human Algebra, Parade the Crown, is a tribute). About Hall, she says: “I didn’t know Terry that well. I didn’t know Terry from the 2 Tone tour, and he just wasn’t a person that… We didn’t warm to each other, but I did admire his talent. His talent was mighty.” The first single from the album FRONTLINE is out now and it has just been added to the BBC Radio 6 Music playlist

Well, she was 10 years older than all of us. And if Debbie Harry turns up, everybody looks like chopped liver, don’t they? I often look at the picture because I’ve got it in my toilet. We were all interested in one another, but I see the expressions on my and Poly’s faces and they’re decidedly different from the others’ expressions… We’re like: ‘What are we doing here? Where do we fit into all this?’ There were other photos taken, she says, where she and Poly weren’t included. What will be more surprising to most is that they’ve been almost consistently producing music since. This is their 16 th studio album. The announcement comes during Coventry’s UK City of Culture 2021 year in which she has played a pivotal role – in the bid and the celebrations. In the last few years The Selecter celebrated their 40th Anniversary and returned to the Official UK Charts in April with a reissue of their debut album Too Much Pressure.
