Review by ict northwest

Blackmen United is the debut album by Shut Up + Dance, a British electronic music group that was active in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The album was released in 1992 on the Pulse-8 label, and it features a mix of house, techno, and hip hop beats.

The album opens with the track "Blackmen United (No More)" which features a sample from the civil rights activist Malcolm X. The song sets the tone for the rest of the album, which is political, socially conscious, and danceable.

Other standout tracks include "Raving I'm Raving," a cover of a Marcia Griffiths song that was a hit in the UK, and "Save It Till The Mourning After," a soulful house track with a catchy chorus.

Summary by ict northwest

Blackmen United is a solid album that showcases Shut Up + Dance's ability to blend different genres of electronic music with socially conscious lyrics. It's a shame that the group didn't achieve more commercial success, but their influence can be heard in the work of other UK dance acts that followed in their wake.
