Over the authenticity of a reggae band hailing from Toronto, it's difficult to impugn the respect with which Bedouin Soundclash has treated the genre. In each of their soulful long-players, the group has embraced reggae's cultural and stylistic heritage with astonishing degrees of aplomb. In particular, and this rings especially true for Light the Horizon, it's as though the band has used reggae as a blueprint with which to explore a host of other styles: "Mountain Top" sports a vintage punk-rock refrain, "May You Be the Road" is a gorgeous low-tempo folksong, while "Follow the Sun" provides the album with a psychedelic curtain call. In short, this feels like a collection of songs from separate genres that have been marinated in a Caribbean jerk sauce, and it works surprisingly well.
