Product Description
After two years of label hassles and post 9/11 delays, Barry Ashworth and his Dub Pistols return with long delayed album Six Million Ways To Live.

Dub Pistols have done everything it’s possible to do in a band and still want more. They’ve toured the US more times than most of us have changed channels, had their music appear on so many Hollywood blockbuster films that not even mainman Barry Ashworth can remember them all, though he does remember recording the title track for Y Tu Mama Tambien with Mexican band Molotov and hooking up with Busta Rhymes for the Blade II soundtrack, played Australia and six Asian countries in less than a week and rocked it live alongside Fatboy Slim in New York the night before the horror that was September 11th, 2001, watching as the "shit hit the fan" from their hotel room across the country in LA the next day.

Now, rather more happily, they’ve recorded the best music of their lives, and they’ve recorded it with reggae legend and sometime Massive Attack collaborator Horace Andy, ex-Specials hero, Terry Hall, Cali Agent rapper Planet Asia and New York crew Sight Beyond Light.

Six Million Ways To Live is an album where the warm pulse of hip-hop, dub and ska receive a thorough seeing to via the needle-sharp miracle of modern technology. Make no mistake, this is the perfect album to give your stereo the summer work-out it so obviously needs.

5 out of 5 stars just a little sample of what they do with mics.......2006-11-14

I was introduced to the Dub Pistols by Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2. I enjoyed their first ablum but this one just blows Point Blank away. Their sound is tighter and there are more instruments.

Everything on this disc is good but Soul Shaking is the stand-out for me. So much raw power flows through that track.

5 out of 5 stars The idea of style..........2005-11-19

A great mixture of hip hop/electronica/ska in the vein of Fatboy Slim meets Massive Attack.

Horace Andy lends vocals to the terrific reggae tinged "Sound Clash". Next up is Terry Hall on the equally impressive "Problem Is". "6 Million Ways to Live" may be the finest acoustic rap song ever. The hip hopish quartet of "Rip Tides", "Soul Shaking", "Soldiers" and "Still Breathing" are all fine tracks.

"Architect", a bust out, in your face blend of electronica and big beats, is my favorite track. Things certainly don't taper off with the grooves of "Official Chemical". In high style the downtempo "6AM" closes things out.

Grab a few copies to pass out to friends who'll be hooked too.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent.......2003-10-15

This album has been mostly ready to go for at least a year but not released because It's basically too good. This release has so many strong hip hop, electronic and rhythmic elements that various record companies weren't able to figure out the best way to market it.

Highly recommended.

WOW. I can't say more than that. The dub pistols definetely got it down. This album will be re-released on October 14th 2003. Be on the lookout as this one will seriously drop like a bomb onto the music scene. Check out the unofficial Dub Pistol's Message board here: http://pistolwhipped.n0t.net

5 out of 5 stars Update on Awsome Album.......2003-02-20

Here is an update on the "six million ways.." album
This is an Interview with Barry Ashworth from Dub Pistols, at a website called residentadvisor

RA: Besides the Y4K release and tour dates, is there anything else coming up in the near future?
BA: Well the (Dub Pistols) album never came out - 'Six Million Ways to Live' never came out because of September 11th. We've just gone back and freshened that up - that's going to come out February/March now - a year and a half later. We're also already halfway to three-quarters way through a new album. And then I do a bunch of different things under different guises. You know, just keep going...

4 out of 5 stars Where is this CD (Six Million Ways to Live) available?.......2002-04-19

Amazon says this was released in 2001, but it's not available to buy here or other sites I've checked. Anyone know what's up? ...

Giving it 4 stars based on "Official Chemical" track which I'm hearing on MusicMatch's Dance Club station.

5 out of 5 stars One word: AMAZING.......2002-01-28
