Like Dreadzone

Is there any music similar to Dreadzone? I understand the dub kind of scene, but DZ seem to have a special flavour, anything else in this vein I should know about?

The only album I heard that's like Dreadzone (and I know what you mean - they have an almost unique blend) is the first Leftfield.
There's stuff that covers some of their territory - on the dubby side there're Dub Trees, Ziontrain and Salmonella Dub (whose latest features a DZ remix that's excellent). You might also like the first Shpongle CD "Are You Shpongled?", though it's slightly trancey and not dub.
But none of the above are Dreadzone. Sadly. However, the good news is that Greg and the lads are working on a new album right now.

More thoughts: anything by Children Of Dub (not as dubby as you might think) and some Transglobal Underground - "Rejoice Rejoice" and "Yes Boss Food Corner" are the nearest to Dreadzone, though they're all good.
