dubby

What's striking about the record is how PiL assimilated both the dread feel of roots reggae and the dub aesthetic of subtraction (stripping out instruments, using empty space), without ever resorting to obviously dubby production effects like reverb and echo.

Why is its brim an object to be perpetually plucked and pinched with dubby fingers?

Set the umbrella ready, and my pattens at the door, for I fear the roads are dubby.
