  • All Music Guide

    The 1990 debut of Urban Dance Squad revealed a band smashing the boundaries between rock, funk, punk, metal and hip-hop. "Fast Lane" leads the program with a blistering groove powered by chugging guitar and sampled horns. Later, "Brainstorm on the UDS" alternates rap verses with a punky shoutalong chorus, while "The Devil" borrows a murky string bass line and greasy slide guitar from the Tom Waits bag. Rudeboy never really sings; rather he raps or, when the song demands it, sort of chants along in a singsong cadence. But for a non-singer he has a great voice, one that comes from the chest but has a sharp enough edge to cut through the mix. Also notable are polymath guitarist Tres Manos and the unbelievably funky bass of Silly Sil. This reissue includes a bonus live disc that documents an alternately metallish and bluesy () Hollywood concert from 1990.
