After backing a number of different artists in the past, Spirit Revolution, a band from the region of Colmar in northeastern France, released their debut album with 2011's 'Time Has Come', which was immediately named "révélation de l'année" by Reggae.fr, already making the band dream of a successor. In the meantime, original vocalists Fyah Max and Natty Singa quit the band, so for 'The Message', the now four-piece band finally joined forces with William Martin aka Sugardaddy, a veteran from Antigua.
