Dub Inc. steps forward with “Atlas, their ninth studio album, “showcasing” how a band with more than twenty years in the game can evolve without losing its foundation. Alongside the release, the group also drops the new video for Break The Silence featuring Kabaka Pyramid, a standout collaboration that brings the album’s message into sharp focus. The Saint-Étienne collective stays true to its socially aware voice, but the new project opens fresh doors. Across twelve tracks, the group moves from reggae into touches of cumbia, oriental colours, rock energy, electronic textures, and stripped-back acoustic moments. It feels like a band exploring without drifting away from the core that built their audience.

Atlas also carries the familiar Dub Inc message. Bouchkour and Komlan focus on unity, hope and the responsibility we all share in a world that keeps shifting. The album features contributions from Marcus Gad, longtime collaborators like Alaoua Idir and Antony Gatt a and this one with Kabaka Pyranmid.

After a cancelled tour and a period of re-centering in their new Greenlab studio, the band used the time to rethink their process. The result is music played by real hands in a digital era that often loses that touch. With renewed energy and a full tour ahead, Atlas stands as a bright chapter in Dub Inc’s journey.
