The Frightnrs - Nothing More To Say (CD/LP, Daptone, 2016)
12 September 2016, 11:15
An instant classic, this fantastic reggae-rocksteady album strives directly for legendary status. It's the first album from The Frightnrs, a Brooklyn band signed on the Daptone label, but it'll also be the last one, alas. Dan Klein, the singer with the magical tone, died from ALS last june.
