The first album released in the U.S. by Swedish third-wave ska outfit
Liberator,
Worldwide Delivery bears the unmistakable imprint of British 2-Tone ska, Madness in particular. Some songs fall prey to overly simple and/or unmemorable hooks, but when the band puts it all together, it's difficult not to be won over by the results. Highlights include the catchy lead single "Kick De Bucket," the very Madness-esque "Crying," and the demented circus stomp of "Will There Be Someone?" ~ Steve Huey
