http://www.realreggae.com - you can download six of their tunes here.

I've only heard those six songs, check the titles:

[list]Earth
Economical Slavery
Follow Fashion
Food, Clothes and Shelter
Jah Bless Africa
Poor and Needy[list]

Some very strong socialist themes are happening here for sure. So much so that I better change my sig in honour of this moment.

It's interesting to hear, because their rhythms are far darker in tone then most of the Jamaican stuff - I'd imagine it is to do with their atmosphere. The English weather probably put a real dampner on their spirits, not to mention the economic climate. Not that things were better in Jamaica...
