Dub Pistols released a brand new video for ‘Dark Days Dark Times‘. The single first came out in July this year, and will feature on the band’s upcoming studio album Addict. The record was set for September release which has now been postponed for 16 October 2020 through Sunday Best Recordings.
‘Dark Days Dark Times‘ feature the legendary MC Navigator and Seanie T as returning guest vocals and Dub Pistols’ regular partners in crime. Atmospheric and powerful, the track acts as a ruthless commentary on the troublesome times we live in, but also as a somewhat optimistic call for change. A simple yet fitting visualization, the video focuses on imagery of global events revolving around equal rights demonstrations, political campaigns, environmental crisis and riots.
The release is the third official premiere from Dub Pistols’ forthcoming eight album. Earlier in June the band dropped the video for ‘Stand Together‘ featuring Rhoda Dakar, followed by ‘Cool Out Son‘ with vocals by Lindy Layton and Seanie T. The new LP Addict was originally scheduled to come out on 11 September but has now been moved for later in October this year.
Meanwhile, the album is already available to pre-order alongside other merch, facemasks and limited signed edition CDs and vinyl. With a month until the new official release day, Addict is already generating enough hype to keep rising in the UK pre-order album charts, currently sitting at #26.

Earlier in September, Dub Pistols performed at the Summer Jammin Festival in Norfolk. Part of the Summertime Social Series, the event was one of the rare socially distanced events to go ahead in the UK this Summer. The band is seemingly planning several additional live shows in support of Addict‘s release but more information is to be revealed soon. The only confirmed gig at this point is an intimate show on 12 December at Club 85 in Hitchin
Last week Dub Pistols was set to headline at this year’s edition of the very special Mucky Weekender Festival, curated by the band’s very own Barry Ashworth, with support by the likes of Gentleman’s Dub Club, Ragga Twins, Too Many T’s, Don Letts, Rodney P, Natty Campbell, and many more. Sadly, the festival was canceled due to the ongoing restrictions on live events, but Dub Pistols confirmed the dates for the 2021 edition for 10 and 11 September at The Shack, East Sussex.
