The career of the Rotterdam hiphopreggae-band The Postmen took in the late 1990s, and with the singlehit Crisis (1999) and awards as the Edison, TMF Award and the silver Harp. After a conflict with record company V2 on the international launch of the band broke The Postmen, the contract and they signed at Warner. The album Revival followed in 2001 but the momentum seemed over. The album took out still a respectable listing in the album charts but was less successful than its predecessor. After three year Era, in which the familiar musical direction just continues. Again we hear thirteen strong tracks, where rootsy reggae is combined with hip hop. The popular dubvariant (ragga) where Shaggy and Sean Paul furore it is not spent to The Postmen. The Anonymous, Shy Rock and G-Boah go on Era not for the bite-sized success but choose to perfect the sound, that they ever have put themselves on the map. The best track is the last: the stylish Beggin you, that with piano and strings is arranged.
