Awesome review for THE CAROLOREGIANS’ “Fat Is Back” CD on Do The Dog Music in the new issue of the ever excellent TNS Records Zine from Manchester:

Hailing from Charleroi in Belgium, The Caroloregians deliver a fine blend of funky reggae, groovy rocksteady & sun-kissed ska in their latest album “Fat Is Back” on the ever dependable Do The Dog Records. The Caroloregians are primarily an instrumental band with a few lyrics dotted about here & there, with the majority in “Undercover Agent” & “You Got To Be A Man”. The spotlight is clearly fixed on bright bubbly hammond organ which flutters effortlessly over choppy upstrokes & wandering bass. The band is evidently influenced heavily by jazz & blues which add a great depth to their trademark soulful reggae sound. While “Fat Is Back” demonstrates the timeless quality of reggae & rocksteady, The Caroloregians revel in retro & the result is fun, funky & incredibly hard not to dance to.

We are currently busy adding lots of cool ska releases from all around the Globe to the DO THE DOG MUSIC SKA CD DISTRO! The latest titles added include The Erin Bardwell Collective, Sigi Maron & The Rocksteady All Stars, The Meow Meows, Ska Gal & The Hands Of Ra, Mel Tepid & The Soul Ska Farmers, Bang The Skillet, Caeser Soze, Capdown & Rude Bones, Faintest Idea & Once Over!
