Tackhead - Ticking Time Bomb (12´´, 1989)

Delivering a powerful mix of taut funk, hip-hop-style grooves, and dub-wise electro-industrial menace, Tackhead was an inspired collaboration between the rhythm section of Keith LeBlanc, Skip McDonald, and Doug Wimbish and maverick producer Adrian Sherwood.

LeBlanc, McDonald, and Wimbish first gained a reputation as the studio musicians behind a handful of early rap classics. When Sherwood hired them to work on one of his On-U Sound production projects, it initiated a series of collaborations that culminated in the first proper Tackhead album, 1989's "Friendly as a Hand Grenade". The trio's original run ended in 1991, but various permutations of the band continued to work together, and they reunited for the 2014 album "For the Love of Money".

"Ticking Time Bomb" is a Tackhead single released in March 1989 on World Records
