These guys were way ahead of their time because if you see in current year (2022) these things they speak about are happening everywhere in Western Civilization
THIS SONG RELEASED IN EARLY 80S IS NOW MORE CURRENT THAN ANYTHING COMING OUT OF THE MUSIC INDUSTRY ... funny how they figured out that babylon back is against the wall while america was in the height of its strength..... i mean back in the 80s this must have had people scratching their heads like who are they talkin about
Well, this is Jamaican song and situation in Jamaica at the times was probably worse than it is now. If not, it was still pretty much fucked up any way. So it was very clear tho them what the song is about. The problem is the rest of the world is catching up with former third world countries in this time when quality of life is about :)
i think its just as much about the fall of the British empire...and the state that colonialism left places like Jamaica, but the point translates to almost any empire throughout history.
@Eric Rosenfeld babylon also refers to where ever there is a rastafarian community its the the culture outside of the that community i.e the government the infa structure banks schools etc. can be all babylon. at least thats what ive read. cheers.;)
I was lead here from the same source, its surreal to imagine all those brothers and sisters hearing this whilst panic and frenzy was taking hold...May their beloved souls rest in peace. The record Is a vibe as well still.

SONG OF THE TIMES ! Babylon back against the WALL!
I remember buying this almost 40 years ago. I've still got it. Wicked bass.
Yeah man, it funny how you can remember the time and place when you buy vinyl. Not the same when you buy a CD.
Yeah this is a pretty Damm good song I remember this one too a long time ago
Slap a de bass
Super bass
Just hearing for the first time in 2022 and so in love!! Yes love the bass!!
This song was released in the 1980s and is more true and relevant today than ever it was.
+Anthony Stephenson i feel like tribal seeds probably got a lot of their influnce from this i heard it through he other room and thought it was them
jon blasen lots modern groups take inspiration from Wailing Souls
Babylon try to find a solution
Hahaha
True the things of today comes to pass
Throughout history an empire only last about 250 years before its decline. America is 246 yrs old.
This is the song that was playing when the New Cross fire occured.

1981 was a very pivotal year for black Britons. Was also the year I was born. Mum told me about it.
Rest in eternal peace - victims of the new cross fire 1981 🙏🏽🙏🏽 the very last tune they heard.
