Gogol Bordello - Gypsy Punks (New CD)

Recorded with Steve Albini in glorious analog sound, this record expands this NYC band's fusion of gypsy punk and Slavic stomp with a touch of metal, dub-wise sound effects that pay tribute to classic sounds of Jamaica. This collective continue their cultural crusade to bridge gypsy music, rock and other brands of rebel music from flamenco to the perestroika punk that blossomed in Easter Europe in the mid-80s.
