Said About ADF


On this site I will put out things said about ADF, in reviews, articles, on TV etc. If you have something you want to add, you know what to do!

"The most important band today."
Various papers/magazines after the release of Community Music

"They might be the best live band anywhere.
Speechless."
Sarah Bee, Melody Maker

"The best band in Britain"
Bobby Gillespie (Primal Scream)

"Asia Strikes Back"
"The most political hardhitting band since Rage Against The Machine"
Beate Nossum, Dagbladet

"Asian Dub Foundation are one of the UK’s hottest bands. A series of blistering live festival appearances and a Mercury nominated album "Rafi’s Revenge" meant that 1998 was their year. Miss them at your peril."
Homelands Festival

"This was Asian Dub Foundation's first gig in Norway, and it better not be their last. The people that started to fill the tent the first day of the festival would gladly use their last money to see them again"
Arild Rönsen, After their gig in Norway June 30th 1998

"Asian Dub Foundation; they often enjoy a joke together."
Q Magazine

"On stage and on record they are a fearsome brew of hard stepping Junglist rhythms, classical Indian influences and speeding socially conscious lyrics. When I saw them supporting Dreadzone recently I was stunned by the way they had absorbed Drum & Bass so completely and were able to work it into a pounding sweaty live set that would have moved a rocking festival crowd as easily as disciples of Kenny Ken and Marvellous Cain."
Thomas Green, Eternity

"This isn't some polite laboratory hybrid, more like 1000 street-music soundbites crammed into a high-speed blender."
Stephen Dalton, NME

"Asian Dub Foundation are massive not passive!"
