The Aggrolites are a reggae band from Los Angeles, California. The Aggrolites are an amalgamation of two previous Los Angeles reggae and ska bands, The Vessels and the Rhythm Doctors, and were originally formed in 2002 as an in-concert backing band for reggae icon Derrick Morgan. The band were asked to record music for a new album for Morgan, and though the actual project was never released, the recording sessions inspired the Aggrolites to become a permanent band. The Aggrolites have also served as the backing band for Phyllis Dillon, Prince Buster, and most recently Tim Armstrong for his solo album “A Poet’s Life”.
In 2004, the Aggrolites released their debut album, Dirty Reggae, on local reggae label Axe Records. The album was recorded at Signet Studios in Los Angeles within one day, and each track was recorded in one take, with many lyrics improvised on the spot. In November 2004, the Aggrolites were featured on Hellcat Records compilation Give ‘Em the Boot IV, and were officially signed to Hellcat in October 2005. The Aggrolites’ self-titled Hellcat debut was released on May 9, 2006.

That's a shame. Even if you're not a fan you can't argue that it'd be a great distraction from kids usual antics on the playground. Should have had a mass skank fest. \/

Played in my high school during lunch time, in the open grass area. No one seemed to care. What a shame.

I am so glad Deftones were horrible at Reading - It allowed me to discover these guys. Was a nice chilled reggae mood in contrast to the ruckus punk that was usually in the lockup tent, but at the same time was well received.
